Vibe coding is an idiotic term and it's a shame that it stuck. If I'm a project lead and just giving directions to the devs I'm also "vibe coding"?

I guess a large of that is that 1-2 years ago the whole process was much more non-deterministic and actually getting a sensible result much harder.

Sculpt coding??

Sculding??

Rice by any other name??

I think if a manager just gave some high order instructions and then went mostly handsoff until teammembers started quitting, dying etc, only then he steps in, that would be vibe managing. Normal managing would be much more supervision and guidance through feedback. This aligns 100% with TFA.
