My week starts with a request: "I need a server to deploy to production, but the devs have no idea how to do it. They don't know how to use the terminal, they don’t know how to handle certificates, nothing. They need to be able to click a few buttons and deploy directly to production. They're Vibe Coding experts."
Welcome to 2026.
@stefano Now I'm depressed.

@stefano they could vibe code a server deployment if they tried I'm sure

My oh my
I do have my fair share of those folks too in $DAYJOB. The last time they spend three weeks (!) on debugging an issue where a webhook would not return anything.Took me five minutes to asses and fix it for them. They were missing the CA intermediary.
In your case - I hope that they aren't vibe coding something that handles sensitive data

Welcome to 2026.
@stefano hey I know more and have more experience than these vibe coders and I’m not even a trained dev
everything is terrible now but also: thank you for boosting my self-esteem

@h3artbl33d I'm not sure about it, as I (still) don't know the purpose of this server.
I've recently deployed Coolify for another similar setup and they're satisfied, so I'll try to understand if that's an option. -

Welcome to 2026.
@stefano isn't "Experts" quite misleading if connected to "Vibe Coding"?
good luck!

Welcome to 2026.
@stefano I find a similar thing happening more often with my colleagues too.
I think the luck of knowing can be fine, after all I didn't know what I know now and I keep leaning new things. I find the real problem is the lack of willingness or incentives to learn new things.
And I really don't understand why people that call themselves developers would not want to learn or how to change that in them (I doubt anyone but them could really change that).Ignoring the vibe coders aspect because well vibe coders.

@stefano I'm not a dev, but I am married to one and this hurts my soul.

@stefano There's a clear misuse of the term "devs". -
@stefano There's a clear misuse of the term "devs".
@zeitverschreib That's the real problem. People are starting to accept the idea that a dev is actually a "vibe coder".
This is (extremely) dangerous.
