paying 1k a month to build a 300k lines of code react app is a choice for sure

I was being ridiculed in the past and called a slop-generator

I can only imagine why. Surely it’s unrelated to this?

I’ve completely moved to codex cli as daily driver. I run between 3-8 in parallel in a 3x3 terminal grid

Nah, couldn’t be.

300k LoC of react, doing what? A todo list app? I couldn’t read the post beyond that. It feels too light on details and too self-congratulatory.

“Agentic Engineering”. No, it’s called vibe coding. AI bros are so desperate for legitimacy they make up fancy sounding titles for themselves.

But this isn’t engineering. Engineering takes rigor and discipline and process and understanding… A lot of it is extremely boring too. The code itself is probably the easiest (and I’d argue least important) part of software engineering. These guys are burning down forests to poorly automate the easy part.

I’m not saying that coding is easy in an absolute sense, but only relative to the rest of the discipline. A good engineer knows how to design/architect a system, understand tradeoffs, balance customer/user requirements with business needs, set up proper testing and releases, properly document everything, etc.

But this [vibe coding] isn’t engineering.

If there’s one sound bite to come out of the entire vibe coding fad, it should be this.
