alt Hacker News> There's a continuum between "vibe coded by someone with no technical knowledge or inclination" and "hand written domain driven design development". You can absolutely use coding agents AND have maintainable code. But yes, the coding agents will not magically make everything maintainable if you don't tell them to.
Yes. But I think the idea is without "hand written domain driven design development" the result trends to "vibe coded by someone with no technical knowledge or inclination," as developers de-skill.
Some de-skill, but not all.
Somewhat relevant parallel..
Calculators exist, but not all is lost:
- lot of (most?) people can do basic multiplication (I’m too lazy to fetch any stats but I hope you’ll have some observations in your bubble dear reader)
- some people actually compete in mental calculations https://worldmentalcalculation.com/mental-calculations-world...
Same will be with software devs, enthusiasts will continue to exist.
