People don't want auth, they want Sign in with Google

- The gap between idea and execution in software development has significantly narrowed, enabling more people to build apps without traditional coding skills.
- The number of potential builders is expanding from 25 million developers to 500 million, as tools allow non-developers to create software by describing their needs in plain English.
- New builders focus on outcomes and user-facing features rather than technical details like authentication or payment processing, preferring solutions like 'sign in with Google' and 'monthly subscriptions'.
- Current development tools and documentation are still geared towards traditional developers, overlooking the needs of this new wave of builders who think in terms of features, not architecture.
- There's a need for better abstractions and infrastructure that align with how new builders think, to bridge the gap until AI can perfectly translate their requirements into code.
