Ever heard of vibe coding?
It’s when the code looks fine, tests pass, vibes are good - so it goes to production. Even if it’s wide open to SQL injection.
I’ve seen it happen.
AI wrote it. Devs trusted it. Management loved it.
Nobody understood it.
We’re trading skill for speed.
And that’s how we lose our freedom.
Vibe Coding Will Rob Us of Our Freedom: https://it-notes.dragas.net/2025/06/05/vibe-coding-will-rob-us-of-our-freedom/
EDIT: Given the trends and the comments, I wrote something off the cuff about it: https://my-notes.dragas.net/2025/06/05/when-we-become-cheerleaders-for-our-own-demise/

New account, new #introduction!
Hey I'm Jamie! I'm a level 35 gamer, IT engineer, husband and dad from the UK. I'm also one of four members of #TheGamersTavern mod team.
I used to go by EighthLayer throughout the fediverse and beyond, however after I decided to permanently stop streaming and the like, I've switched to using accounts that feel more personal to me rather than a content creator presence.
So more about me... I love gaming! Recently picked up Kingdom Come Delieverance II again and been really enjoying that! I do like a good open-world RPG amongst other genres. 🎮
I'm a big Liverpool FC fan! Recently crowned English Premier League champions! 🔴🏆
I'm an F1 fan as well! Mainly support the British drivers, but I'm mostly just a general fan of most things F1. I don't have an real team allegience. I just don't like Red Bull Racing, and I'm even from the city they're based in! 🏎️
Anyways, that's me. Look forward to talking with everyone here as usual!

Why it is so painful to have a fancy email address? It is almost impossible to use, and I am not about DKIM/SPF/DMARC (what I finally fixed today!).
Some websites do not accept anything except gmail and hotmail addresses at registration form.
So sometimes not only my fancy "example.house" type of address declined, but even fallback address at mailbox.org !
Basically it is easier to buy fancy car license plate or phone number, than email address like me@example.house 😞
