The Entire Vibe Coder Community When Token Rates Have Been Reduced

The Real Chad: API Consumer vs. Web Scraper

The eternal struggle between those who build APIs and those who break them. Up top, we have the "Virgin API Consumer" - shackled by OAuth, rate limits, and the constant fear of a 429 error. Poor soul thinks following documentation is actually making life easier. Meanwhile, the "Chad Third-Party Scraper" lives in digital anarchy. Armed with Selenium, cURL, and an army of captcha-solving minions, this data pirate treats your carefully crafted JavaScript defenses like wet tissue paper. Entire security teams stay awake at night because of this guy's weekend hobby. The irony? Companies spend millions trying to stop scrapers while simultaneously building their own scraping tools. It's the circle of web life.
