Mine is that the useState hook is an actual plague on the entire React ecosystem. Regardless of your opinions of React, if you wanna use something then use it right.

I just got out of an interview where they pretty much told me they will ask me to vibe coded the tool they're working on. LLMs do not make your code faster, and you are not more productive using it. I will never change my mind. We coded for 70+ years without it. You're gonna end up with some subtle hard to reproduce bugs that are intermittently reproducible, and code that is nearly unmaintainable, and nobody knows what it does or how it works.

Good luck with that.
