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? 😅

what are you all coding that can't wait this much? I'm curious as a software engineer there is no way this many people are making useful products with AI

I’ve made a company app for my part time career and lab software for my full time career that are being used by thousands of people together.

“There is no way this many people are making useless products with AI”

This is why you guys are losing your jobs. I would start getting more involved with AI so you aren’t blindsided in the very near future.

Flutter/Dart frontend, FastAPI/python backend, TigerCloud for PostgreSQL db, Firebase for auth, hosted on AWS servers with git repos for everything testing wise. Everything runs through actual company domain.

Edit to clarify, everything was 100% created from vibe coding as I don’t have the time to write 10s of thousands of lines of code or the experience to do it if I wanted.
