I would question the framing that code is cheap now. That's not really meaningful. What is the cost most associated with software? Maintenance. Considering that, I would say a much more accurate statement is that sub-prime technical debt is now easy to take on. I'm surprised at the low quality of the grifting comments in this thread. I have a feeling that the vibe coding enjoyers used to at least make defensible statements. Now it's just pure hype. Seems like we're in the SBF being lauded for FTX part of the bubble.

> sub-prime technical debt is now easy to take on Vibe-coded projects can't keep up with the scale of technical debt accretion. See the proliferation of OpenClaw clones - instead of fixing it we're iterating on rewriting it from scratch without fixing the core issues. (Give it a year and the "minimal" Claw-clones will also collapse under technical debt, because they're also vibe-coded, with all that implies.)
