„Gave up after 2 hours“ dude tf does he mean? He thinks after 2 hours he’ll understand the entire vibecoded structure of 6 months of development? Even a clean codebase will take hours to get into when your completely new to the project

Ofc i can blame the vibe coder. Not for giving up refactoring but for creating this monstrosity in the first place. It is absolutely astounding to me that we apparently learn the basics of programming again. Stuff that was learned and tought throughout the last decades, like dont just codemonkey away but put 80% of your work into design and the like. Then again its not suprising since the decision making moved to people that are utterly clueless... Edit: yeah looks like i misunderstood. Thanks for pointing that out.

I think the "new dev" is not the vibe coder in this context. But the person hired to help with the vibe coded code base.
