The output is indistinguishable from manually written code.

  I hope on HN of all places I don't need to explain the difference between "writing correct code" and "Software Engineering". We both know what a 20 year old million line legacy software needs.

    Not everything needs to be amazon/google scale backed with things like sharded dbs or kubernetes.

      Nope, not at all. But a million line codebase isn't close to Google scale. That's typical boring non-tech legacy code system scale. And I don't think I'm at a point where I'd want to vibe code my way though that and take responsibility for it.

  "My vibecoded stuff is indistinguishable from handwritten stuff" and "I got anti-AI comments after vibecoding my website even though I didn't say anything about AI" are not very compatible with each other.

    There was absolutely nothing showing that it was vibe coded other than the fact that a website that didn't get any updates for 5 years suddenly got a 20+ bullet point update. People just assumed it was vibed because of the sheer number of changes. There was not 1 mention about anything being broken, they were simply complaining about AI. Anti-AI psychosis is a very real thing that is happening https://x.com/Jediwolf/status/2054776716770320631 https://x.com/Jediwolf/status/2054776716770320631
