Before I begin, the bro code is not a set in stone thing, there are certain rules that someone may or may not be comfortable with.
1a. Bros before hoes, if a man invites you to something before a woman does, you don’t cancel with the boys
1b. Always leave a urinal space in between another man, this is a rule that must not be broken
2. If your hanging out with your boys crush, you aren’t the funny one, he is
3. If your boy likes a woman that you like, let him have ‘em, it ain’t worth ruing your friendship
4. Don’t date exes unless your boy absolutely does not care if you two get together
5a. A real bro must drop everything to help his bro dump a chick
5b. If a man is flirting and her friend comes to try and stop it, you will intervene and stop the friend
6. Nod up: Sup
Nod down: respect
7. Don’t act up around females when the boys are there
8. Be the best wingman you can be, don’t embarrass him

Get the Bro codemug. An AI-dependent programming technique, coined by ex-OpenAI wizard Andrej Karpathy where developers "fully give into the vibes, embrace exponentials and forget that the code even exists".
In other words, it's where random non-technical monkeys with little to no programming language, dish out sloppy games and other software through blindly copy-pasting AI generated code from LLMs like ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor to make fast and easy money.
This can lead to unprotected APIs or endpoints, lack of input validation, weak/no encryption etc and potentially even result in the final product being taken down permanently and the guy will have to beg for his job back at Popeyes.

Example 1:
Person 1: Hey! I've been vibe coding this new game, can't wait to make so much money
Person 2: I've watched Fireship's video. Hope you use the RETARD tech stack (React, Express, Tailwind, Redis, Deno)
Example 1:
Person 1: Hey! I've finished vibe-coding my new application through the Cursor IDE
Person 2: Can't wait to bypass your subscription, max out API key usage and create random shit on the DB

Get the Bro code nr: 17mug. When you're in a hurry to solve a programming problem, and your solution results in a shittiest-rushed-even-yo-mama-would-be-embarrassed-of-you-algorithm, but it get the damn job done.
I was solving day 3 of the Advent of Code, and I hate coded the worst fucking solution! I'm not proud of it, but it worked.

1. Don't ever go after your friend's ex. This rule is so well known, yet broken so often and is the reason most friendships unfortunately end. You're supposed to hate her ex, not date her ex.
2. If your friend tells you something in confidence, it is your job to not go blabbing it out to the entire world.
3. No matter how close you are with a girl, if you are out and see this girl is too intoxicated and can't control herself, and is alone, you make it your job to get her water and keep her safe. You would want someone to do the same if you were in this position.
4. If a girl needs a tampon and you have a tampon—help her out. We all know how that situation feels.
5. If your friend asks how her outfit/hair/makeup etc. looks, BE HONEST. If your friend goes to you wearing bright blue eyeshadow, I would save her the embarrassment of going out and mortifying herself by telling her to maybe tone it down a little.
IF ANY GUY IS READING THIS YOU SHALL BE PUNISHED. Unless you’re extremely attractive.

Get the Girl Codemug. The layman's gateway into the world of software development.
The term was coined by Andrej Karpathy in February 2025, presumably influenced by similar Gen Z-esque terms such as 'Vibecession', where 'vibe' presumably refers to the fact you can code based on how you feel, rather than what you know.
While LLMs have always assisted people with coding, it is largely thanks to the introduction of AI-powered IDEs such as VSCode, Cursor.sh and Windsurf that have made vibe coding into a real thing. These IDEs feature an AI agent that will pretty much build your entire project for you. Because of this, anyone, even an 8 year-old kid, can have the means to create sophisticated software.
While vibe coding is here to stay, it certainly has no place in enterprise environments. Think of it like this: vibe coding is like shooting in auto mode on your DSLR, as opposed to manual mode. It might take some good photos, but to rely on it for professional work is like opening pandora's box. Even for individual projects, it is better to first understand the basics and best practices of coding, and then rely on vibe coding. That way you can independently evaluate the quality/relevance of the code being generated.

Example 1: Most startup businesses these days heavily rely on vibe coding to launch their first SaaS. (not recommended tho)
Example 2: Julian, an 8-year old boy, vibe coded his own J.A.R.V.I.S. assistant as an homage to his favorite superhero.
Example 3: "Bro did you hear? Alex vibe coded his way into a systems integration engineering career." ... "Yikes."
