That’s interesting but how much of this if written down, documented and made into video tutorials could be learnt by just about any good engineer in 1-2 weeks?


I don’t see much yet, maybe everyone is just winging it until someone influential gives it a name. The vibe coding crowd have set us back a lot, and really so did the whole leetcode interview fad that are just throwing off. It’s kind of obvious though: just tell the AI to do what a normal junior SWE does (like write tests), but write a lot more documentation because they forget things all the time (a junior engineer who makes more mistakes, so they need to test more, and remembers nothing).


The trick is being a good engineer in the first place.
