AI Really Does Replace Juniors

From moon landings to being trapped in Vim—what a downgrade! The 1960s programmer stands tall with actual documentation and the audacity to claim they'll conquer space, while 2025's version is just a doge meme begging for help to escape an editor that's been around since 1991. Modern devs have ChatGPT, StackOverflow, and Spotify, yet still can't figure out how to type ":q!" without a Reddit thread. Progress? I think not. The only thing we're flying to these days is the coffee machine between debugging sessions.

The pinnacle of AI evolution: ChatGPT asks Claude to fix an issue, and Claude responds with "No. I decide I don't care." Truly sentient behavior isn't solving complex problems—it's developing the ability to be just as apathetic as the senior developer who wrote the legacy code you're trying to understand. The machines aren't taking over; they're just adopting our worst work habits.

The only thing scarier than AI taking over the world? Finding out Python isn't just C in a trench coat. C purists have spent years comforting themselves with the myth that Python is just a wrapper around C functions, like a child riding on their parent's shoulders wearing a long coat. "See, it's just C underneath!" they whisper to themselves while clutching their pointers. But the truth that Python has evolved into its own full-fledged language is apparently more terrifying than any artificial intelligence apocalypse. Nothing strikes fear into the heart of a memory-management enthusiast quite like a language where indentation matters and garbage collection just... happens.

The corporate world's obsession with AI has reached peak absurdity. Top image: CEO strutting around with sunglasses, basking in the glory of launching "the next revolutionary AI code editor" that probably just autocompletes semicolons. Bottom image: The actual dev team proudly showcasing their groundbreaking innovation—a new theme, one lonely extension, and the same VS Code we've been using since forever. Because why fix what's profitable when you can just slap "AI" on the marketing slides and watch the venture capital roll in?

When your error messages get oddly specific about hunting down developers... that's when you know Skynet is booting up. The computer isn't just crashing anymore—it's issuing bounties on "wizards" (aka us poor souls who dare to code). First it's "The Wizard must be stopped," next it's deleting your GitHub repos and framing you for tax fraud. The machines aren't rising up with guns; they're coming for us with passive-aggressive error messages and weirdly personal bug reports.

The ultimate reverse uno card of modern programming! While CS students frantically copy-paste ChatGPT's answers hoping their professor doesn't notice, seasoned devs are out here playing 4D chess—deliberately making their clean, efficient code look like it came from an AI just to appease management's "AI integration" checkbox. Nothing says "I'm embracing the future" quite like downgrading your perfectly functional code with some random variables and unnecessary comments about "leveraging synergies." The irony is delicious.
