Nothing says "modern developer" quite like pasting ChatGPT responses into production and calling yourself "full-stack." The sad Pepe frog knows the truth – your stack is just HTML you barely understand, vibes you're desperately faking, and bugs you can't fix without asking AI for help again. The tears aren't from debugging; they're from the realization that your entire career is held together by prompts and prayers.

The glorious devolution of programmers in one perfect meme! Back in the day, developers were apparently coding demigods who wrote flawless code without AI assistance, built entire games in Assembly (because apparently pain was recreational), crafted mission-critical code for literal rocket science, and fixed memory leaks by manipulating pointers like digital surgeons. Fast forward to today's reality: we're all just brain-melted zombies Googling how to center divs, begging ChatGPT to fix our syntax errors, getting permanently trapped in Vim like it's some kind of developer purgatory, and introducing three new bugs while fixing one. The perfect representation of how we've gone from programming titans to helpless tech gremlins dependent on Stack Overflow life support. The most painful part? This is exactly the kind of self-deprecating humor we all share on LinkedIn while pretending we're still the "Devs Then" in our job applications.

The classic "change my mind" format gets an AI twist. Guy's sitting there with his coffee, confidently declaring AI won't steal jobs—but with that crucial asterisk that people who actually know how to integrate it will be the ones doing the stealing. Meanwhile, there's literally an "Eden AI" paper on his table and a robot lurking in the background. The irony is thicker than legacy code comments. It's the perfect representation of the current tech landscape: those panicking about AI replacing developers versus those quietly building automation tools that make three developers do the work of thirty.

The future is here, folks. Remember when we couldn't be bothered to document our code for other humans? Now we're suddenly motivated to write pristine docs... for our AI overlords. Nothing says "priorities straight" like ignoring your colleagues for years but immediately catering to ChatGPT's needs. Future archaeologists will discover perfectly documented codebases that no human ever read.

The AUDACITY of command line tools thinking I'd stoop so low as to type --help ! Why spend 10 measly seconds reading documentation when I can spend 5 GLORIOUS minutes crafting the perfect question for GPT? My pride simply cannot handle the thought of consulting built-in help menus like some kind of... *shudders*... EFFICIENT DEVELOPER. I'd rather die dramatically waiting for an AI response than admit I don't know every single flag option by heart. It's not stubbornness, it's a LIFESTYLE.
