For a long time, we’ve been hearing about how non-developers are going to unleash a torrent of vibe coded slop on the world, but I’m not seeing it. I was thinking about this when looking at restaurant menus: it’s still almost impossible to consistently view them online. Now, I know the issues with restaurant menus: razor thin margins, busy owners, changing prices, no clear feedback loop to owners who could be losing sales. But at a time when these problems should have evaporated (if we believe the hype) and maintaining an online menu should be as easy as the offline version, I still can’t see the menu of a single restaurant near me in a non-shitty format. At work, even adjacent fields like non-coding engineering managers and Business Analysts seem to stop at specs and designs rather than making the leap to working software, even throwaway low-stakes things. It feels like developers are probably leaving money on the table by assuming that software development is being commoditised for non-developers. We should be unleashing our skills on the world, rather than assuming we’re going to be replaced. submitted by /u/Fickle-Swimmer-5863
