alt Hacker NewsPlease stop pushing the "getting left behind" fear. Prompting is not a skill, there is nowhere it's going that it can leave anyone behind. The "skill" of prompting is 100% dependent on one's skill programming, and in a day the skilled programmer will be able to surpass the guy that's been vibecoding for a decade.
I've seen a lot of people hop into prompting with no trouble, and people who have been using it for years that get bad results. Ultimately, prompting skill is just downstream of technical communication skill. It's probably a good way to practice, if you pay close attention to what you forgot to specify, and what the model got wrong.
