@alanonai: Engineering for Vibe Coders: Data Retention Here is a question most vibe coders never think to ask: “When should my app delete data?” Because the default is usually simple. Never. Keep every user record. Every log. Every uploaded file. Every AI conversation. Storage is cheap, so why not? Because once you store data, you become responsible for it. You have to secure it. Back it up. Migrate it. And if your system is compromised, data from a customer who left four years ago can still be exposed. Sometimes the safest data is data you no longer have. So before your application stores something forever, ask two questions: “Why am I keeping this?” And: “When should it stop existing?” Collecting data is easy. Knowing when to let it go is engineering. Link to article in comments #ai #vibecoding #coding #programming
