Writing hardware is like writing software except parallelism is way cheaper, but mistakes are way more expensive.

Hardware takes 20 years to learn how to build properly.

Software takes 1 year under someone smart in a production environment.

People that conflate the two... longer or more likely never.. =3

That's very funny.

Be honest, most Software people find utility in artifacts which are a mysterious black box with an emulated abstraction.

During a career role most have no idea "why" chips were designed and built a certain way, nor require this information to work within abstract domains.

In many ways, vibe-coders are the absurd optimization of a naive trajectory toward zero workmanship standards. =3
