My code would look like this:

if{x>0}

positivecountplusplus;

no, not that, I mean positivecountplusplus;

No! I mean increment positivecount;

NO! Erase, stop typing all that;

Erase last four lines;

FUCK!;

{endif}

    I can only assume they're saying prompts for vibevoded slop, not trying to write actual code verbally.

    "Like, do that thing where it counts by one until it gets to a predefined number, but make that number equal to the number of statements. But, like, do it where it doesn't suck like last time.

    "Nooooo, why does it keep counting to 2? Now 3? 4?!"

    You forgot to say "Only write correct code" in your instructions

    If you can get past the background noise, this is one of my favorite old YouTube videos and it’s basically this: Windows Vista Speech Recognition Test

    Person that can say if ( sSmeUngdlyVarName.equalsignorecase('test string') ) {
    ListVryViabNameForlst.add(sSmeUngldyVarName); } Faster than I can type it?

    Or they are just script kiddies.

    Worse, they're vibe coders.

    The big secrets they're keeping from their coworkers are things like adding "and make sure there are no bugs in it" to the end of their prompt.

    The part that frustrates me is that we already have been through this sort of shit with "smart speakers". The slowest way to interact with a computer or machine will always be through speech.

    Even vibe coding 🤮, you'd be faster typing.

    When Vibe coding the slowest thing is reading the code produced. If you review the code though everything grinds to a halt. I've vibe coded a feature or two. It took 1 day to vibe code and another week or two to properly review the code it wrote.

    The industry 'secret' is that no one gives a shit. Claude has like two 9s of uptime.
