because of MCP and langchain?

Eh, more the wider cultural effects of them. Vibe coding, everyone now creating kitchen sink apps that do everything under the sun, k8s everywhere, agents everywhere. It feels like a big part of the industry has lost all focus and is sprinting towards some endless vague panacea instead of focusing on solving specific well defined business problems.

It’s always been a bit like this but it feels particularly bad since AI hit mainstream coding tooling. Just my 2c :)
