"Vibe coding" is the cringiest term I've heard in tech in... maybe ever? I'm can't believe it's something that's caught on. I'm old, I guess, but jeez.

It's douchey as hell, and representative of the ever-diminishing literacy of our population.

More evidence: all of the ignorant uses of "hallucinate" here, when what's happening is FABRICATION.

  • How is fabrication different than hallucination? Perhaps you could also call it synthesis, but in this context, all three sound like synonyms to me. What's the material difference?

    • Hallucination is a byproduct of mental disruption or disorder. Fabrication is "I don't know, so I'll make something up."
