Vibe Coding

“Zero to one will be great for vibe coding where founders can ship features very quickly. But once they hit product market fit, they're still going to have a lot of really hardcore systems engineering where you need to get from the one to N and you need to hire…”

“I mean, I think our sense right now is this isn't a fad. This isn't going away. This is actually the dominant way to code. And if you're not doing it, like you might just be left behind. This is just here to stay. And, you know, vibe coding is not a fad.”

“In order to do good vibe coding, you still need to have the taste, and you still need That kind of classical, maybe not necessarily classical train, but enough knowledge to judge what's good versus bad. And you only become good with enough practice.”

“I think this vibe coding will enable people who have those kinds of technical minds who come from other technical disciplines like math and physics to become highly productive as programmers much faster than it was in the past.”

“I think that the whole idea of kind of vibe coding or coding without really looking at the code and understanding it doesn't really work. There are lots of end order effects. You know, if you're dealing with millions of lines of code and dozens or hundreds of …”

“I think this will end up being like a gateway drug to software development.”

“Like we frequently run into infra issues, and you don't want a vibe coder right there fixing it on live things on production. Like, I do want, like, people well trained in regular software engineering, infrastructure, distributed systems. Like, you don't want …”

“Knowing what we know, I mean, yes, vibe coding is not, you know, completely usable and trustable for you know, a hundred percent of your coding period. Like this, you know, it is not true that you can like ship a hundred percent solid Production code today as …”

“And for any, anybody else in the audience, like, you lose a little bit of credibility, I think, you know, when your customers are viewing your product and they're saying like, Eh, this looks like a bunch of other things I've seen. They probably just use AI to …”

“And September, 20, 24 Repli became the first, like what's called five coding product where we abstracted away code entirely, so there's like a coding agent behind the scene, but you're just interfacing with AI using natural language”
