Schöne neue Welt. 🤦

»Vibe-Coding-Verdacht — Ransomware-Panne mündet in totalem Datenverlust:

Nun ja ist eben so und alles andere als überraschend. Ich frage mich weshalb immer noch Firmen attackiert werden, lassen die ihre Fenster offen?!??

Interesting and probably controversial observation for many by Andrew Ng,
" I’ve stopped writing code by hand. More controversially, I’ve long stopped reading generated code. I realize I’m in the minority here, but I feel like I can get built most of what I want without having to look directly at coding syntax, and I operate at a higher level of abstraction using coding agents to manipulate code for me."
