I recently took a small contract to help a vibe-founder de-vibe his project a bit. One hour with him has done more for my confidence as a developer than all the good work I’ve done this year. When probing for answers about the app and system he (lovable and Claude) had created he legitimately could not answer a single question and has almost no idea how anything works, even though there is a public web app that is capable of taking subscription payments from authenticated users. We’re living in strange times, and a giant pile of shit is coming at us like floods and tsunamis. If you’re patient and nice to talk to I imagine there will be good work available with which to flex your “I know what I’m doing”
