I have this suspicion that the ATproto stack, at least the stuff from Bluesky, is heading towards "majority-vibecoded" but that's mostly just from seeing a lot of posts from the Bluesky eng team rather than me having spent much time in the codebase
Why is def hugely responsible for Bluesky/ATProto's design and if *he's* mostly letting Claude write 99% of his code, the rest of the eng team is likely to be heading in that direction too?

@cwebber yeah, least surprising Bluesky thing to do

@erincandescent
@res260 @cwebber we have tools for that tho? templates and libraries and bootstrapping and automation tools. they don't have to be, as @olivia so said a couple month ago "made from shit and blood" -

> Until December of last year I was using LLMs as fancy autocomplete for coding. It was nice for scaffolding out boilerplate, or giving me a gut check on some things, or banging out some boring routine stuff.

> In the past two months Claude has written about 99% of my code. Things are changing. Fast@cwebber oof, always wonder what review processes are in place at places where a large portion of changes have been vibecoded. I tend to discuss why a certain implementation has been picked, what pitfalls have been considered, if a solution is adequate to a problem etc. when reviewing major changes with engineers whose code I review, "claude did that" wouldn't really stand as an answer in my book. Makes me wonder if that kind of discussion just isn't common anymore? this whole agent stuff just seems like a big footgun to me that will inevitably lead to hard to comprehend and more difficult to navigate/to maintain codebases

@erincandescent @res260 @cwebber respectfully, that's not my experience
If the task is specific enough to require human intervention, then it shouldn't be left to a stochastic code generator either -
@erincandescent @res260 @cwebber with the hundreds of billions of dollars burned to make stochastic code generators that only sort of work (and at horrific ethical costs), i dare say that we could have developed adequate tooling instead, and we still can

@erincandescent @res260 @cwebber i mean a lot of people are agreeing to use the one llm right now, it seems

* they don't

@cwebber also, I can see this type of situation very, very easily spiraling into a classic "death by convenience."
How long until the primary engineers no longer understand the how their program is built or what motivated ostensibly insignificant decisions that eventually add up
