Your Vibe is killing my Flow

Vibe coding is now the default way to build things, and it’s created a problem I can’t seem to solve.

The Lost Joy

Earlier, work — especially programming — was how I achieved flow. Dull my surroundings, focus on just the work, think through problems ahead of time while building something. My brain was fully engaged.

Now, since only part of my brain is involved, my work has lost a kind of joy that I felt before.

The Waiting Game

Waiting for Claude to crunch away while I sit idle means my ADHD brain takes over and distracts me. I get a lot of shit done, but it’s not the same.

The outcome doesn’t feel personal. And there’s always that doubt — did I think through the solution enough, or did I just vibe my way through it?

What Now?

Time to re-train our workFLOWs and lives, find joy in other things.
