    Keep vibe coding and breaking everything.

    This will be the new normal as all human “engineers” from staff to seniors are now down levelled to interns and junior engineers when using AI; unable to understand what they are doing and pushing broken updates like this into production with “agents”.

    Better not blame Claude on this outage.

      No matter who writes the code, the name in the commit is responsible as well as the person who approved / reviewed the PR.

        And in many companies, if they move at a responsible speed (rather than the speed the AI vendors promise, if you let their tools work in yolo mode), that person will get replaced by someone who will just yolo it
