Gives you a good window into a vibe coder's mentality. They do not care about anything except what they want to get done. If something is in the way, they will just try to brute force it until it works, not giving a duck if they are being an inconvenience to others. They're not aware of existing guidelines/conventions/social norms and they couldn't care less.

This sounds like a case of a bias called availability heuristic. It'd be worth remembering that you often don't notice people who are polite and normal nearly as much as people who are rude and obnoxious.

Could it be that you're creating a stereotype in your head and getting angry about it?

People say these things against any group they dislike. It's so much that these days it feels like most of the social groups are defined by outsiders with the things they dislike about them.

I am starting to get concerned about how much “move fast break things” has basically become the average person’s mantra in the US. Or at least it feels that way.
