Out of interest, I see you've posted links to several of your projects -- are those vibe-coded?

You didn't have to ask everyone; if you were really interested, you could have gone and looked into it yourself, or at least opened GitHub to see how old they are.

Somebody wrote in another thread: "intelligence is compression". So. Defaulting to slop is intelligent now. Saves a lot of time and energy.
