My client is replacing me with Claude for all DevOps/infra and most feature dev

12 points by goatwrangler 1mo ago ↗ HN

The last straw was showing up on Monday to a new vibe coded kubernetes cluster and migration plan for all cloud run services. One week after his vibe coded feature and vibe hotfixes kept the sites up and down for over a week before I stepped in and simply reverted the Claude junk.

I chose not to support the new direction so he's moving forward without me.

I can confirm this story, I was there. I am the software engineer who puts up with this clients junk and goatwrangler is my boss

When production outages start getting classified as innovation, it's usually time to refresh your LinkedIn profile

To be fair I’ve seen similar insanity before the days of infra slop.

Sorry about that. Just out of curiosity, was there any problem/limitation or client just decided a new cluster was needed for any reason (maybe its own ego)?
