The modern dev industry in one horrifying portrait. This poor soul has spent 15 years installing packages and memorizing framework APIs without understanding a single line of vanilla code underneath. Can't write a for loop without reaching for lodash, but boy can they recite the entire React documentation while sleeping.

I've interviewed these people. They'll talk your ear off about their "deep expertise" in 47 frameworks they've "mastered," but ask them to reverse a string without npm and suddenly they need to "research best practices." Their resume is just a word cloud of package names.

The worst part? These people get hired. A lot. Because nobody wants to admit they can't tell the difference between someone who understands programming and someone who's just really good at following Medium tutorials.
