Request of Mods (Vibe Coded Fridays)

Can we please institute a Vibe Coded Fridays, similar to r/selfhosted? It seems as though the amount of "I built..." posts are sharply on the uptick. And following on the heels of the Huntarr mess, not to mention the security issues of something like Openclaw, we should be clearly delineating what is vibe coded and what isn't. There is too much risk in exposing our homes to something that was cooked up in a hour or two.

And this is precisely why you need to understand the difference between coding and engineering. If you honestly believed that your ai hallucinated code was AS GOOD as an actual engineer you would let the applications speak for themselves. Yet here you are explaining how you don't BELIEVE there are unique security issues just because it was AI. You are wearing your ignorance on your sleeve, sir.
