Not to be nitpicky but those locations are all over the place, lol. I wonder what the actual percentage of programmers need to pivot to slop cleanup duty.

Depending on how royally the hiring party screwed up, there could be a lot of desperate money to be made

From my experience, a whole lot.

Think about how hard it is to join a new company and learn to maintain their codebase - at least in that situation you are likely going to have someone more familiar with it walk you through it.

Now understand that no such resource exists for vibe code - you’re on your own from the get go.
