Vibe #coding would better be called yolo coding because that's really what you're doing...just throwing caution to the wind, cranking out code and seeing what happens. Which reminds me...

One day, five minutes before church service was to start, I was in the sacristy (side room) lighting the "torch" to light the altar candles. It was out of oil. I scrambled to unscrew the cap off the torch's reservoir. To avoid spilling any fuel on the carpet, I did this over the sink. Of course, I dropped the cap and it immediately went down the drain.

Three minutes to church service start...I get under the sink and disassemble the U-shapted trap/catch pipe, retrieve the cap, reassemble the pipe, then begin to refill with oil. By now, two other men had arrived to see what the hold up was and to "help".

The cap did not want to go on neatly and we spilled/spilled the oil all over the place and down the sink. One minute to church service start...and paraffin oil is everywhere on the sink basin, down the drain in the trap, dripping down the torch and handle.

30 seconds to service...we had it ready, but I hesitated. I did not want to strike a match with highly flammable paraffin everywhere and down into the plumbing system. I mentioned my concern. One of the men said, "Let's just light it up and see what happens."

"I'm out," I thought to myself and left the sacristy.

That's how vibe coding, or yolo coding is - let's just light it up and see what happens.
