> tired of spending what felt like 90% of my time writing unit tests, wrestling with frameworks, and solving problems with upgrades to the huge webs of dependencies for even basic projects. In other words, I got fed up with what coding has become. It's no longer hacking. It's toolchain management.

I'd add to that, dealing with programmers who insist all of this is absolutely necessary, as if software didn't exist before these advancements. Meanwhile, it takes them a couple days to program themselves out of a wet paper bag.
