"Does Vibe Coding and Prompt Engineering make me an Software Engineer?"

Absolutely not.


An incredible amount of words used to touch on a very complex and deep problem in a very shallow way.

Purpoting centralisation and hailing it as the resolution of a very legitimate fundamental need, that of freedom, is difficult to follow.

Freedom is not, has never been and will never be easy and comfortable.


I would suffocate it. Know the greedy snake idiom? A snake is so hungry and greedy that it suffocates on its prey?

Best you can do is to spread all of the goods it provides, as it is too greedy to not devour them itself. It will consume them and suffocate slowly.

Can we accelerate it perhaps? You know, spending ALL our resources on making the snake more fat is not a good idea. Its only good idea when you have so much resources that you can easily suffocate the snake with negligible (for us) amount. If you try to suffocate several million snakes, that might backfire a little.
