This place is crawling with "devs" who have never built an enterprise system, but talk crap to people who actually know what they are doing. They think we can just vibe code major applications, intended for professional use, over a long weekend, or something.

And the stuff they build never works properly and then they get on here and whine about retention rates and I can't even.

I don't think I can do major applications, but I think I can vibe code some small stuff.

Anyone can do that.

"ChatGPT, please build me a VB plugin that adds number of attendees accepting the invite to the Teams Calendar Meeting."

There. Vibe coded something small. Takes 10 minutes. Works. Yay.

The developers are the people who built MS Teams. And that didn't take 10 minutes. And they've been using AI to program for years. They built the AI.

It's a whole different ballgame, in a whole different league. And GitHub is in that league.

Agreed. Thankfully, nostr clients don’t need to be very high quality, but I do think there’s this thought that because they can quickly slap together a very basic client, that suddenly means all apps should be built this quickly/easily.

There are roles and roles. Let's say that developers feel better in general because they know they are few compared to the crowd and therefore they feel important. They should respect the opinion of non-developers more
