> We think the flat hiring right now is just companies signalling that they don’t know what to do yet.

The whole article seems to be written disingenuously for the junior developer audience but this one kinda irked me: the flat hiring is because interest rates are high and has nothing to do with companies figuring out what to do with vibe coding.

On topic, nothing in this article suggests anything fundamentally useful about vibe coding other than it being an easier way to start for juniors and entry-levels. If you are a junior, go ahead and keep vibe coding but also do your best to understand the code you’re given. I strongly suspect that will (continue to) be something that makes people stand out.
