You just want a quiet weekend where you don't think about code, maybe touch some grass, remember what sunlight feels like. But NOPE! The vibe coders are out here having their little Renaissance, building entire frameworks before breakfast because they "got tired of" literally everything. Can't even scroll Twitter without seeing someone announce they rebuilt React with 47 lines of code written in a new language they invented that morning. Meanwhile you're just trying to exist without your brain automatically refactoring the grocery store layout. The audacity of these people to be productive while you're seeking inner peace is truly unmatched.

Nothing says "innovation" quite like mandatory OAuth flows and a dashboard that requires three different logins to access basic metrics.
