Anything I Should Add? This Will Be My New Wallpaper

The Windows logo is having a full-on existential crisis while puking out what appears to be... itself? Meanwhile, the bottom half is stuck on a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) because of course it is. The company name "Microslop" with the tagline " powered vibe-coded by copilot" is just *chef's kiss*. This is basically a visual representation of Microsoft's current identity crisis: trying to slap AI into everything while their OS still crashes like it's 1995. The "vibe-coded" part is particularly savage—because apparently Copilot doesn't actually code anymore, it just vibes and hopes for the best. Which, honestly, tracks with the quality of AI-generated code suggestions we've all been getting. The self-cannibalistic imagery is spot-on too. Microsoft eating itself while trying to reinvent itself with AI, all while Windows users are just trying to get through a Tuesday without an unexpected restart.

I Have Won But At What Cost

AI AWS Backend Cloud

Your AI model just dominated the leaderboards, crushing GPT-5 and Claude into oblivion. Marketing is popping champagne, the dev team is celebrating... and then the CFO opens their email. That AWS bill just landed like a meteor strike on the company's bank account. Turns out training your LLM on 47 trillion tokens using every GPU cluster in three availability zones costs slightly more than a coffee run. The AI team is celebrating their technical masterpiece while the CFO is having a spiritual crisis, calculating how many decades of revenue it'll take to break even. Sure, you're #1 on the leaderboard, but at what cost? Literally. The answer is in six figures. Per day. Welcome to the AI gold rush where the real winner is Jeff Bezos.

Year

Webdev Javascript Programming Frontend

1 hour ago 31.6K views 0 shares

So everyone's screaming about JavaScript being terrible, but then you look at how developers actually get the current year in production code. Instead of just using new Date().getFullYear() , some genius decided to hardcode "2025" wrapped in a beautiful mess of <footer><small> tags that don't even close properly. The closing </small> is chilling AFTER the text instead of wrapping it correctly. Maybe JavaScript isn't the problem. Maybe it's the developers who refuse to use it correctly. This footer will be hilariously outdated in about 365 days, and some poor soul will have to manually update it while the rest of the internet just... uses a date function like normal people. The real kicker? They're complaining about hardcoded YEARS while literally hardcoding a year. Chef's kiss. 💋👌

Guys, What's The Best Linux Distro To Install On My Pc?

Linux

3 hours ago 48.9K views 0 shares

Ask any Linux user what distro you should use and watch them immediately launch into a passionate defense of their own choice while politely nodding at yours. It's like asking a parent which kid is their favorite—they'll say "they're all great!" but you know damn well they have a preference. The truth? Everyone thinks their distro is objectively superior while simultaneously respecting your terrible decision to use something else. Ubuntu users think Arch users are masochists. Arch users think Ubuntu users can't read documentation. Gentoo users are still compiling and can't join the conversation yet. Pro tip: The best distro is whichever one you've already spent 6 hours customizing and are now too emotionally invested to switch from.

Let's Put AI Everywhere And Call It A Company

Microsoft's naming strategy in 2024: take your existing products, slap "Copilot" or "AI" on everything, and pretend you invented something revolutionary. Word becomes "Wordslop," Excel turns into "Exslop," and my personal favorite—Teams is now just "Recycle Bin" because let's be honest, that's where all productivity goes to die anyway. The real genius move here is "Power Slop Intelligence"—because why have Power BI when you can have a product name that sounds like what comes out after a bad algorithm eats too much training data? SharePoint becoming "Slop Point" is just truth in advertising at this point. Nothing says "we're out of ideas" quite like adding AI to products that have worked fine for decades and charging enterprise customers an extra $30/month per seat for features that hallucinate your quarterly reports. But hey, at least the VCs are happy.

Software Optimization

When your Notepad app somehow needs 8GB of RAM just to display "Hello World" but some absolute madlad is out here trying to run GTA 5 on a PlayStation 3 with the processing power of a calculator watch. The duality of modern software development is absolutely UNHINGED. On one side, we've got bloated Electron apps that could probably run a small country's infrastructure but instead just... open text files. On the other side, game developers are performing literal black magic to squeeze every last drop of performance out of hardware that should've retired years ago. It's giving "I spent six months optimizing my sorting algorithm to save 2ms" versus "I just downloaded 47 npm packages to center a div." The contrast is *chef's kiss* levels of absurd.

Google Drive

Using Google Drive as version control? That's like using a butter knife for surgery—technically possible, but everyone watching knows something's gone horribly wrong. The sheer horror on that face says it all. Meanwhile, Git is sitting in the corner crying, wondering where it all went wrong after decades of being the industry standard. Sure, Google Drive has "version history," but let's be real—scrolling through "Code_final_FINAL_v2_actually_final.py" isn't exactly the same as proper branching and merging. But hey, at least it's better than the person who answers "my laptop" with no backups.

Oh Man I Can't Believe You Figured It Out

A Dell executive just publicly admitted that AI confuses consumers more than it helps them, and the tech world is reacting with the shock of someone discovering water is wet. The Good Place meme format is *chef's kiss* here—the disbelief that a major tech company would actually acknowledge what everyone already knows is palpable. It's like watching a corporation accidentally tell the truth at a press conference. Turns out slapping "AI-powered" on every product doesn't magically make people understand why their laptop needs machine learning to adjust screen brightness. Who could've seen that coming? Oh right, literally everyone except marketing departments. Dell out here doing the impossible: being honest about tech hype in 2024. Someone check if hell froze over.

What Do You Guys Even Do

Android Programming Debugging Testing

The universal app store changelog. Every single update: "Bug fixes and improvements." Yeah, but which bugs? What improvements? Did you fix that crash that's been haunting me for three months or did someone just adjust a button's padding by 2 pixels? It's the developer equivalent of "I don't want to talk about it." Could be a critical security patch. Could be they changed the shade of blue in the settings menu. You'll never know. The changelog has spoken, and it has chosen violence through vagueness. Bonus points to Yahoo Finance for at least pretending to be specific with "several bug fixes" instead of just "bug fixes." Wow, several . That's practically a novel compared to the others.

Never Skip Jira Day

Agile Programming

9 hours ago 141.4K views 0 shares

The beautiful lifecycle of a software developer: wake up, crush some code, close tickets, repeat. This skeleton is literally powered by the dopamine rush of dragging those Jira cards from "In Progress" to "Done." It's like a twisted fitness routine where instead of leg day, you've got ticket-closing day, and your gains are measured in story points instead of muscle mass. The real workout here is maintaining the discipline to actually update your tickets instead of just shipping code and ghosting your project manager. Some devs can bench press 300 pounds but can't lift a single ticket into the done column without being asked three times in standup. This skeleton clearly has its priorities straight—those quads are built purely from the repetitive motion of ticket management. Pro tip: If you're not getting swole from ticket velocity, you're doing agile wrong.

Karen from HR just wanted to check the task manager. What she got instead was a forced shutdown of every running process on her machine. One does not simply press Ctrl+Alt+Delete without consequences. The dad is having the time of his life knowing full well he'll be getting a ticket about "the computer randomly restarting" in about 3 minutes. Everyone else at the table is experiencing various stages of grief. Classic family dinner with IT support present. Pro tip: Next time just teach them Ctrl+Shift+Esc. Saves everyone the drama.

What's Yours?

When someone asks about your tech stack and you show them a literal stack of chips. The ultimate dad joke for developers who've been in enough architecture meetings to know that sometimes the best stack is the one you can actually eat. No dependencies, no version conflicts, no npm install nightmares—just pure, crispy satisfaction. Though I'll admit, the deployment process does leave your fingers a bit greasy, and the documentation tastes suspiciously like salt and regret.
