I understand that LLMs are very good at parsing natural language. But the thing is the only reason I got into coding in the first place is that I don't like specifying problems in natural languages. That's whole reason I think that "vibe coding" is fscked up idea. It fully replicates the sad experience of working with another human being using same inexact language. Maybe an LLM can shorten the time spent to just get overview of some area but you need to do full research based on upstream data anyway to actually finalize things any reliably.

@loonycyborg @WandererUber @sun the way you derive that would also make it impossible to ever work with another human without personally checking everything they are doing

In any sort of craft there exist various operational standards and common sense rules. Those replace constant checking of everything. They're like type systems in programming languages. So when I use actual programming language rather than imprecise natural language instructions I'm, like, automating those standards and rules.
