Deep Research Indeed

Nothing says "I care about this project" quite like a 47-paragraph ticket that reads like a doctoral thesis but was actually generated by ChatGPT in 3 seconds. You open it expecting clarity, instead you get five pages of corporate buzzwords, redundant acceptance criteria, and suspiciously perfect formatting. The real kicker? Buried somewhere in paragraph 23 is the actual requirement: "make button blue." Meanwhile you're sitting there like a rain-soaked anime protagonist, dead inside, knowing you'll have to parse through this AI slop to figure out what they actually want. The ticket looks impressive in standup though, so there's that.

When the job posting says "Junior Developer - 0-2 years experience" but also requires "Expert in 17 frameworks, machine learning, quantum computing, and ability to debug code by smell alone." That's how we end up with this 55-year-old "junior" looking like he's seen some shit. By 2025, entry-level positions will require you to have invented time travel just to acquire the necessary experience. The name tag is just the cherry on top - "AI Technician" because apparently, that's what we're calling "copy-pasting from Stack Overflow with extra steps" these days.

SWEET MOTHER OF LINEAR ALGEBRA! Imagine pouring your heart out about your personal tragedy to a LITERAL MATRIX! The poor soul is asking about his wife and kids to an equation that's just sitting there with its rows and columns, completely incapable of human empathy! 😭 It's like expecting your calculator to give you therapy! "Dear Matrix, why did she leave?" "BECAUSE YOU SPEND ALL NIGHT CALCULATING DETERMINANTS, HAROLD!" The absolute mathematical TRAGEDY of it all! This is what happens when you spend too much time in the computer science department - you start seeing matrices as your only friends! Next thing you know, you're asking vectors about your dating life!

The ultimate nightmare for data scientists just dropped! Imagine trying to pip install your favorite packages and getting hit with a "Trade War Exception: Additional 25% CPU usage required." NumPy gets special treatment with an extra 10% because apparently array operations are a national security threat. Next thing you know, we'll need to smuggle TensorFlow modules across the border in USB sticks labeled "definitely not machine learning." The irony of putting tariffs on Python imports when they're literally free and open source is just *chef's kiss* peak software geopolitics.

Finally, someone said it! Andrew Ng, the AI guru who could've just kept raking in the Silicon Valley cash, decided to drop some truth bombs. "Vibe coding" sounds like you're sipping kombucha while casually typing console.log("feeling cute today") when in reality you're having your third existential crisis before lunch because your Docker container won't stop committing suicide. Nothing says "vibe" quite like staring at a stack trace at 3 AM while questioning your career choices. Maybe we should rename it "despair engineering" or "caffeine-fueled panic typing" instead?

Look, I've been around long enough to know that AI replacing programmers is the tech equivalent of "flying cars by 2020." But Stack Overflow? Yeah, that's actually happening. Why spend 20 minutes waiting for some moderator to mark your question as duplicate when ChatGPT will just... answer it? Wrong sometimes, sure, but at least it won't roast you for not including your environment details. Stack Overflow traffic has genuinely tanked since LLMs became mainstream. Turns out people prefer a hallucinating AI that's nice to them over a correct human who makes them feel like an idiot. Can't say I blame them.
