alt Hacker NewsI hate to be the guy arguing semantics, but is that the median definition? Everyone I know defines vibe coding as ignoring the actual output code completely and evaluating the result by how it behaves under test. Non-coders vibe code by default, because they don't understand how to read the code in the first place. Developers vibe code when they just trust the LLM to have been right about the behavior they don't explicitly test for. Vibe coding is the act of ignoring most possible friction, for better or worse.
It is. There are many people on here who think of having any LLM generated, never-human-reviewed code in the codebase, as vibecoding. There are also people like you, who believe it's about completely ignoring it, and even human-reviewing 10% of the code means it's not vibecoding. The median definition, at least on here, is somewhere in the middle, around "a large portion of the code is never looked at by a human".
