<h2>Bullshit police</h2>

<li><strong>The Vibe Coding hangover has arrived</strong>: After a brief honeymoon where YC startups bragged about 95% AI-generated codebases, the industry is waking up to a 10x spike in security findings and ‘AI debt.’ It turns out that ‘vibe coding’ is just a fancy term for shipping unreviewed, hallucinated garbage that senior engineers eventually have to fix at 3 AM. <a href="https://app.daily.dev/feed-by-ids?id=EQi7fPMBC&amp;id=UMWydbouY&amp;id=zTOGp6y0v" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Read more</a></li>
<li><strong>Microsoft startup credits are a billing trap</strong>: Founders are discovering the hard way that Microsoft’s ‘generous’ startup credits don’t actually cover third-party models like Claude on Azure AI Foundry.
