The author reflects on his evolution: as a beginner in AI/vibe coding a year ago he only cared about fast output, but after building 80+ apps and sites he now appreciates sophisticated tooling. Example: Netlify's Postgres can be invoked through a prompt with zero config, and every app iteration gets a separate isolated cloned database so he can tinker without touching the production region — capabilities he never even considered last year.
