I used to be like you and then I decided to get up to speed on where things stand a couple of months ago.

I hate using it but I can write issues in gitlab, send them to aider, and it will spit out working solutions complete with test coverage.

Right now I think I'm maybe still faster just writing things myself but this feels incredibly tenuous. I'm certain that in a year vibe driven development will be faster.

There is no programmer's union. When the industry decides it's time to get rid of developers because vibe coding is faster than mid level developers, there is no counter.

The only developers left will be either true 100x geniuses or vibe coders. I'm not the former so I am trying to make sure I can become the latter long enough to last a few extra years.

Regardless of how much you personally want to resist, this is what is going to happen.

I didn’t say I don’t invest or use automation or other AI. I said I don’t use Llms. There’s a huge difference.
