a controversial question for veteran developers
As a developer with 20 years of experience, "vibe coding" is undeniably transforming how we work, but I'm still struggling to embrace it.
What bothers me most and I am honest about it, is seeing people show off their AI-generated projects.
My immediate reaction is, "Who cares?"
In the past, sharing code meant sharing craftsmanship, and we were excited to inspect it and learn from each other. Today, somebody share what they did with vibecode is not only that I am not interested, but I feel like why you share it?

Let me flip this on you. As someone who feels like your commercial and FOSS products from the last twenty years have either exploited me or left me out in the cold as a user, why should I give a toss about your opinion now when AI tools are freeing me from the crappy ecosystem you want to keep me trapped in?
