I am so sad that people I know (not you, OP) are using the phrase 'vibe coding' seriously now, like it's some new discipline of coding. It's a facetious term! The joke is that it's not real coding! Stop!!!!!

I’ve seen job postings on Upwork that mention “vibe coding” as a skill requirement.

They want vibe coders who can do the work of a team for a fraction of the price. And if the code is buggy they can always dispute.

So it becomes your responsibility to provide a team’s worth of proofed code.

My company sends out emails like "vibe it up" with links to their vibe coding workshops.

I'm getting the impression that people need it explained that "vibe coding" is not supposed to be a complement.

Google's Instagram keeps seriously advertising "vibe coded projects"
