How long does one have to have to live for a single day of life to be a drop in the bucket?
Within the constraints of a day, seconds are meaningless, but minutes may not be, despite being made of 60 of them... So, what is the "time tolerance ratio"? Does it have a fancy name like that of phi?

Obsession can become disordered eating, orthorexia, and a variety of other not-so-fun EDs, and compulsive behaviors & mental health struggles. Because that spin cycle of dieting & overexercise in the 90s & 2000s is all the Millenials who went to Weight Watchers as kids. 🫠

One of the things I think the vibe coding stuff hasn't yet really come to terms with is junior developers and owners often think the key skill for developers is ability to write code, and principal developers know the /actual/ super power that distinguishes principals is their ability to debug.

Once again preaching that if you want/need repeatable static output: REAL CODE - NOT AI
If you want or need to GUESS -> AI
To that end AI is best suited for "solutions" to the problem presented by unsanitized input.
The REAL solution, however, is still enforcing strict input validation.
