Co Pilot Go Brrrr

OH. MY. GOD. The BRUTAL truth about our toxic relationship with AI coding assistants! 💅 We're literally gambling our productivity away with these AI slot machines! Type a vague prompt, hit "Generate" and PRAY TO THE CODING GODS that you'll get something that doesn't make your compiler have an existential crisis! "Just one more prompt, I swear this will fix it!" - me, 47 prompts later, sobbing into my energy drink while my deadline approaches at the speed of light. Meanwhile, OpenAI is cackling all the way to the bank! The absolute AUDACITY of spending 3 hours prompting for something that would take 20 minutes to code yourself. But here we are, calling ourselves "prompt engineers" like we've invented a new profession instead of admitting we're just gambling addicts in developer hoodies! 💁‍♀️

Oh, the sweet innocence of "I made a website with ChatGPT" followed by sending a local file path instead of a URL. That's like telling someone you're a chef because you microwaved a Hot Pocket. What we're witnessing here is the beautiful collision of Dunning-Kruger effect and file system confusion. Our friend thinks they've launched the next Facebook when they've really just saved an HTML file to their downloads folder. No server, no hosting, just pure unbridled confidence. The Windows file path is just *chef's kiss* perfect - nothing says "I'm a web developer" like trying to share C:\Users\ben\Downloads\index.html through iMessage.

Simple task: print numbers 1-10. Developer asks ChatGPT to do it. Instead of a basic loop, it delivers a recursive function. "Not bad," thinks the developer, and asks for optimization. ChatGPT's response? "Let's spawn threads for each recursive call!" The result is computational chaos—a CPU-melting, fan-screaming disaster that turns a 3-line solution into a parallel processing nightmare. It's like asking for a screwdriver and getting a nuclear-powered jackhammer with rocket boosters. Classic AI overengineering at its finest!

That desperate salesman energy when your company is trying to push yet another AI subscription on developers who just want to write code in peace. The corporate overlords really think we're all sitting here starving for AI autocomplete at $10-20/month. Sure, Copilot can be useful, but watching management present it like it's the second coming of Linus Torvalds while you're just trying to fix a bug is peak corporate comedy. Nothing says "we understand developers" quite like a suit enthusiastically pitching tools to people who've been perfectly capable of Googling Stack Overflow for decades.

STOP THE PRESSES! The revolutionary "AI-driven" Robotaxi is actually just some poor soul in India with a gaming steering wheel frantically clicking through virtual streets! 😱 The tech industry's greatest magic trick - convincing investors that "powered by AI" doesn't sometimes mean "powered by underpaid humans halfway across the globe." Next they'll tell us their cutting-edge chatbot isn't just three children in a trenchcoat typing really fast! The audacity! The deception! The absolutely predictable reality of tech startups slapping "AI" on everything while actual humans do the work behind digital curtains!

The rare sight of a developer with actual respect for fundamentals! While everyone's chasing the latest JavaScript framework and slapping together AI demos with more dependencies than original code, this little brother is out here building pixel-art RPGs in Java from scratch . That's not just coding—that's craftsmanship. There's something deeply satisfying about watching someone learn programming the hard way instead of becoming another "copy-paste from Stack Overflow" developer who calls themselves a "10x engineer" because they can npm install 47 packages in one command. The future belongs to those who understand what's happening under the hood. I, too, will watch this career with great interest.
