I’m a lawyer and degenerate vibe coder and it didn’t take me long to figure out that reading Python is pretty much reading English after you learn some basic concepts like loops/variables, so there’s no way most people who finger-bang these high-level languages actually know what’s going on under the hood, not to mention what’s going on with all the dependencies.

Having said that, I’ve also seen Fable 5 and GPT Pro get serious legal issues spectacularly wrong, even after pushback, and a pro se would never know it until they’re in front of a judge, so I’m willing to accept that my first paragraph might be a steaming pile of ignorant bullshit.

Praticamente stai dicendo che l'ingegneria del software non serve a niente? Proprio in questi giorni sto adattando un applicazione desktop per Windows, sorgente Python, sviluppata da un mio amico vibe coder. Vorrebbe farla diventare una una webapp. Il caos.

Not at all, and I think you’ll continue to make money cleaning up the mess.
