A password (usually auto-generated) that is complete nonsense. Example: *)36/Pn=p>(JOp5dcqtUo"@G
These passwords are ironically a good practice to use since a brute-force attack based on non-nonsense data is more likely to guess a password like "fuckrobot34" than "lG.j"UXhSHZ*|c>j|$oBfXr1"
The phrase comes from the assumption that a string of characters needed to launch a rocket would be very random as to protect the system from hijacking.

The password that was suggested to me on superconfidentialgovernment.com looked like a rocket launch code.

To put stank on the source code is to use mystical and ancient knowledge of IT to fix or improve the function of electronics.
If you've ever had a problem with your computer, and your geeky friend fixed it seemingly by magic, that's when you know that they dropped some stank on the source code.

Person 1: Woah man, are you watching porn in 8k?
Person 2: Yeah dude, I dropped some pretty serious stank on the source code, and now I can stream anal porn in ultra high quality
Person 1: My phone is so slow. I think I need to update my software
Person 2: Fuck that brah, just put some stank on the source code!

vibe-coding /vīb-kō-diNG/
noun
A programming methodology in which developers with Computer Science degrees outsource their jobs to AI while charging clients $200/hour for their "expertise." It involves typing vague descriptions into GitHub Copilot and then debugging the resulting code while pretending you understood what was happening all along. Karpath was right - coding using jazz method is instant FLOW.

"Dave spent three weeks vibe coding a basic inventory app, which is impressive considering it would have taken him two days if he'd just written it himself."
Most commonly observed in open-plan offices where practitioners dramatically frown at error messages they don't understand before asking the AI to fix its own mistakes. Success is measured not by code quality but by how convincingly one can explain in meetings that the obscure bugs were "interesting edge cases" rather than "I have no idea what this code actually does."

Joe is such a preppy coder, he can't write anything without using the newest whatever from company x.
I really don't know why they've use technology x from company x it would have been much simpler to write one or two functions of their own.

Code or a project you throw together by telling an AI stuff like “make it sick” or “whip up a cool app.” It’s dope for cranking out ideas quick, letting anyone with a vibe turn it into something real, no coding degree needed. If you’re on point with clear directions, you get a solid base to work with. But if you’re just vibing with no plan, you’ll end up with a janky, bug-filled mess that barely runs.

Example 1:
“This vibe coded game looks cool as hell, but ‘make it fun’ left it buggier than a cheap phone.”
Example 2:
“Her vibe coded site’s straight-up fire—clean, works great, ‘cause she told the AI exactly what she wanted.”

“Want to come on Mike’s boat this weekend?”
“Can I bring my boyfriend?”
“No! You shouldn’t even ask! don’t you know boat code.”
