“Vibe coding is on a spectrum of how much you understand the code. The more you understand, the less you are vibing.”
– Steve Krouse

A line graph where the Y axis is "vibe" and the X axis is "understanding." A line starts at the the top of vibe and comes down diagonally as it goes further on the understanding end.

One way to separate pointless cruelty from productive feedback: The Disapproval Matrix, an oldie-but-goodie from Anne Friedman

www.annfriedman.com/the-disappro...
A 4-box matrix called The Disapproval Matrix, where the Y axis top to bottom runs Rational to Irrational. The X axis runs left to right Know You to Don't Know You. Top left corner is Lovers, people who want to see you improve and thrive. Top right corner is Critics, experts in your field. Bottom left corner is Frenemies, people who don't wan to see you improve. Bottom right corner is Haters, jealous ignoramuses.
