Theres vibe coding and there’s ai assisted coding. The former is bullshit and causes more problems than it fixes. The latter is great and you should lean into it. There was a post a few days ago about a rule file for using Claude code effectively. (I never bothered to learn the hn rules on linking so google it up with site:)

You should start building a rule file listing every way it screws up and a) warning it not to b) watching for it. Errors I’ve seen: failure to follow best security practices, failure to plan properly, failure to update variable names, lies, bad tests, stuck in a rut flip flopping between two possible paradigms Get into it, get better at it than your CEO and CTO, save them from the worst of their folly.

And simultaneously start looking for another job because you clearly don’t like them and disagree with their strategy in important ways.

AI assisted coding is the future, but probably not the way they’re doing it. But pain is the best teacher so dive in and feel that pain.
