It still amuses me how literally people took Kapathy's famous tweet around vibe coding https://x.com/karpathy/status/1886192184808149383

If people were to actually read beyond the first sentence, it would become clear very quickly that this was meant to be tongue in cheek.

People took it seriously because that's exactly how a lot of LLM users think and exactly what they want 'coding' to be. Honestly I'm not even certain it is satire.

Because most people have the context-window of 10 tokens, they do not read further than the first sentence (or two).

I don't think it's tongue-in-cheek at all. It refers to a specific type of LLM coding, where you literally don't care about how bad the code is and just code stuff and hope it works. That's how I use the term, and that's why I use it rarely.
