Everybody Knows You're' Vibe Coding

the "everyone knows" meme.

traditional software development has flipped.
BEFORE: designers visualized products as mockups, engineers had to clean up edge cases & make it all work.
NOW: engineers vibe code features so fast that designers are cleaning up UX to make them work with the product.

as a designer, if you're not the one vibe coding, you're going to end up a production designer, cleaning up the mess of the PM or engineer that's figuring out the feature.

designers fought tooth and nail to have a seat at the table, to transcend pixel pushing. and we're trending towards a descent back into hell.
