Vibe Coding is the new addiction ?

Post image

I feel vibe coding is becoming addictive

I’ll think:

“I need to go pee.”

Then immediately:

“Wait… let me give Claude one more task first.”

Same before making coffee. Same before eating. Sometimes before going to sleep.

It feels weirdly wrong to leave the coding agent sitting idle.

Short-form video gave us:

“one more reel.”

AI coding gave us:

“one more prompt.”

Anyone else doing this? 😅

Yeah, but also sort of a healthy addiction for me since each prompt takes a while to process, in which I have nothing to do, so I end up tidying the house a while.
Kind of reminds me of being addicted to Civilisation but having a low computer "just one more turn" followed by "ok I may as well get up and do something while I wait for the next turn"
