Provenance is the basis of trust though; nobody hand verifies all software running on their own computer.

- palata 2mo agoSure, yeah. But "vibe-coded and reviewed by Linus Torvalds" is probably better than "manually-written by a random person on the Internet". Sometimes the provenance itself is enough to trust it, sometimes the fact that people I trust audited it is enough to trust it, and sometimes I audit it myself. Or I run it in a safe environment, sometimes that's fine too. My point is that because it was vibe-coded does not make it more dangerous than random code found on the Internet.
