Welcome to Programmer Humor!
This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
Friend's colleague needed Excel to, "return the month where the majority of days in the week fall into". Had Copilot do it and sent it to my friend, apparently impressed by making such a robust looking formula.
The formula:
My friend's solution a minute later:
I can see it could be slimmed even less, but I assume the table is large so LET is doing performance stuff.
What a coincidence! I'm a vibe coder cleanup specialist. I clean up after their brains explode from receiving too much vibration from the computer waves (or something, I don't know how it works exactly. I'm just here with my little sponge)
Oh yeah. Don't you guys also do murder scene remediation?
Wouldn't it be easier with a big sponge?
Well, the brain explodes at the computer. And I'd guess the insides and outsides of a computer are easier to clean with a small sponge (depending on the setup ofc).
I have to imagine hiring someone who advertises themselves as a vibe code cleanup expert would be a dent to the ego.
Yeh, but you only need 10 vibe code cleaner-uppers per vibe coder.
And a vibe coder is a 10x developer.
You just have to mitigate the increased cost of AI API calls.
It pretty much balances out, with the obvious 20% efficiency boost - which is where everyone makes their money: companies, developers and ~~shovel~~ AI platforms... All 20% efficiency boost. Which directly relates to profit boosts. 20% line goes up!
Which also pays for the datacenters, the ~~shovels~~ GPUs, the power, the cooling and the water for the cooling. It's all cheaper, cause AI is at least 20% more productive.
Even if your vibe-coder-code-fixers turn into vibe-coder-code-vibe-fixers... That's just another 20% efficiency boost. Basically printing money! Oh, but you need to buy more ~~shovels~~ GPUs. But that's also a win because ~~shovels~~ GPUs don't have unions or require holidays. Think of the profits! They work 24/7.
And all you need are vibe-coder-code-vibe-fixer-code-fixers.
...As long as your vibe-coder-code-vibe-fixer-code-fixers don't turn into vibe-coder-code-vibe-fixer-code-vibe-fixers (I'm so lost, I think that's right).
Edit: forgot some ~~shovels~~
A paycheck is a paycheck. Lots of us exchange our ego for daily bread — we have a club and everything. We meet every day after work at your local bar.
It depends on whether you're the vibe coder or the guy that just fired the vibe coder hired by your predecessor.
Oh, so all of a sudden Hugo from New Jersey's not good enough to get a red underline?
Yeah wtf
Look at how they massacred my boy
Not to be nitpicky but those locations are all over the place, lol. I wonder what the actual percentage of programmers need to pivot to slop cleanup duty.
Depending on how royally the hiring party screwed up, there could be a lot of desperate money to be made
From my experience, a whole lot.
Think about how hard it is to join a new company and learn to maintain their codebase - at least in that situation you are likely going to have someone more familiar with it walk you through it.
Now understand that no such resource exists for vibe code - you’re on your own from the get go.
How this person gave up underlining the jobs after some time
problem create solution , solution creates problem type shit
Killing the vibe
The underlining is so inconsistent in this picture it looks like an AI did it.
Vibe check
Vibe coding wild but vibe therapy is insane. Wild time to open up to a company when asylums are coming back. From git commit to hospital commit
Let me guess... AI generated fake profiles? Or just a severe lack of creativity. Definitely one of those.
Quite the opposite; these are probably the most savvy opportunists making themselves available for headhunting by clueless recruiters chasing The Next Big Thing.
They will end up getting phat contract offers to tidy up the poorly implemented AI-generated code put in by some C-suite desk jockey after they fired their engine engineering team.
