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.

Seriously I have hooked up CI and production status to my 5 1-foot high bear lamps, *so* much fun. Brought to the internet with haproxy for extra nerdery.

I also had a fair share of “why does my code not work in production” before AI, its a lot to do with the mindset of the person.

The damage they cause and have caused is incalculable and, in some way, they have taught that you don’t need ability or competence to do things. You just need to know how to present them.

Luckily, I'd say.

I don’t even know where to start on that one!

Vibe coding experts is such a stupid term. A kid who can type in ai can call themselves that. Geesh. Just think of how much knowledge can get lost in just one generation. Baffling.

And then to run a server later on without even being able to use the terminal!

Years ago that was the first I learned as a Linux server admin and it’s still my default 😀

People are starting to accept the idea that a dev is actually a "vibe coder".

This is (extremely) dangerous.

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.

I've recently deployed Coolify for another similar setup and they're satisfied, so I'll try to understand if that's an option.
