Hi PH! We're a group of renegade devs who still remember the "good ol' days" of tearing our hair out for hours to eventually discover a missing closing bracket at 4am. We've been through the trenches of debugging without AI, scouring the interwebs, going on side quests, black holes, and building sh*tty things from scratch without a chatbot grabbing our nether regions. But get this straight - we're not anti-AI. We're anti-AI-dependency. There's a difference between using AI as a tool and using it as a replacement to think and struggle. We believe humanity should understand coding fundamentals so as they can still get sh*t done in a cave with no WIFI.

@dnlbtlr Great work, Daniel! I think we'll need more tests like this one. I see many Vibe coders who lack even the fundamental coding skills.

@csaba_kissi Thanks Csaba! When you're finally sick of typing "fix the issue" and burning through tokens , it's time to take back control and brush up on those skillz haha.

@dnlbtlr Thanksfully I have 25+ years of experience. So I still remember something.

Looks like I’ve got some skills to brush up on this summer 😄 🧠

At Scrimba, we're getting a front-row seat to the skill atrophy happening among developers. Time and again, I hear from students who dove too deep into vibe coding, only to realize they can no longer build things without Cursor by their side.
I'm not at all against vibe coding. It's empowering, fun, and productive. But muscles that aren't used eventually rot. And if you want to become a professional developer, you need a solid technical understanding of the tools you rely on.
That makes being a coding student or junior dev especially tough today. You have to strike a tricky balance: use AI just enough to move forward, but not so much that you forget how to think. Because one day, you’ll get lost in your own codebase and realize you’ve forgotten the fundamentals.
