alt Hacker NewsI thought "vibe coding" had come to mean "I used an LLM to generate this code", but didn't really imply we'd given up trying to review and read the output. The author is taking it one-step further by suggesting we not bother with the latter.

A lot of people doing vibe coding can barely (or not at all) understand how to read code.

I, too, appreciate the clarification in the term "write-only code".
It's true that the meaning of "vibe coding" has been somewhat diluted - but the original definition as set forth by Karpathy was to forget that the code even exists (no review, no reading the commits, nothing).
