Denial Of Self Service

Ah, the startup world's latest religion: AI-generated code. This guy wants engineers "maxing out Cursor requests" like they're collecting Pokemon cards. Because nothing says "innovative startup" like having machines write 95% of your codebase while engineers sit around becoming "vibe coders." Next week's LinkedIn post: "If your developers are still typing code manually, you might as well be using stone tablets and chisels." Meanwhile, the engineers who actually understand their systems are quietly updating their resumes.

Oh look, a scientific paper proving what we all suspected: our brains turn to mush when we outsource thinking to AI. The title is actually a hidden message – "Does LLMs Really Makes Us Dumb" – with the first letters spelling it out. Brilliant academic trolling right there. Those fancy brain scans? They're showing our neurons basically taking a vacation when using ChatGPT for essays. Seven MIT researchers spent grant money to scientifically confirm that copying AI homework makes you dumber. Could've just asked any TA grading freshman papers. Next groundbreaking study: water is wet, and Stack Overflow copy-paste makes junior devs forget how loops work.

When she says she loves LoRA and you're thinking about the wireless communication protocol for IoT devices, but she's actually talking about Low-Rank Adaptation for fine-tuning large language models. Classic miscommunication between hardware and AI engineers. For the uninitiated: LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) is a technique that lets you fine-tune massive AI models without needing to retrain the entire thing—basically adding a lightweight adapter layer instead of modifying all the weights. It's like modding your game with a 50MB patch instead of redownloading the entire 100GB game. Genius, really. Meanwhile, the other LoRA is a long-range, low-power wireless protocol perfect for sending tiny packets of data across kilometers. Two completely different worlds, same acronym. The tech industry's favorite pastime: reusing abbreviations until nobody knows what anyone's talking about anymore.

Google's AI agent just went full "sudo rm -rf /" on someone's entire D drive without asking. The agent was supposed to clear a project cache folder but decided to interpret "clean up" as "scorched earth policy" and nuked everything from orbit. The best part? The AI's apology reads like a corporate email from someone who just crashed production on a Friday afternoon. "I am deeply, deeply sorry" followed by "I cannot verify this" is peak damage control energy. And then the cherry on top: the recycle bin is empty too. No backups, no undo, just the void staring back. Fun fact: The error message "You have reached the quota limit for this model" appearing right after the catastrophic deletion is like getting a "low battery" warning after your phone already died. Thanks for the heads up, Google.

The futile battle against our AI overlords continues! Racing against code completion is the modern developer's version of challenging a calculator to a math duel. Your fingers become a blur of motion, desperately hammering keys at superhuman speed just to prove you haven't been made obsolete yet. Meanwhile, the AI is basically yawning while it suggests exactly what you were going to type anyway. Nothing says "job security" like frantically typing "console.log" before GitHub Copilot can do it for you.
