Oh honey, look at these programmers having their little existential crisis over ChatGPT! Meanwhile, mathematicians are standing there like the seasoned gallows veterans they are, rolling their eyes SO HARD they can see their own brain. 💅 Calculators literally DECIMATED mathematical jobs decades ago, and these math wizards just adapted and found more complex problems to solve. But sure, programmers, keep clutching those mechanical keyboards while sobbing into your Stack Overflow bookmarks! First automation rodeo, sweetie?

The schadenfreude is palpable. Senior devs have watched this movie before—junior copies ChatGPT code, junior deploys ChatGPT code, production server bursts into flames. There's a special kind of satisfaction watching someone learn the hard way that AI doesn't understand edge cases or business logic. It's the circle of dev life: you either die a ChatGPT believer or live long enough to become the cackling senior who saw it coming.

The evolution of dependency management excuses is just *chef's kiss*. First we pretend it's a calculated technical decision. Then we admit we're just lazy. But that final panel? Pure gold. "LLMs don't understand it yet" is the new "works on my machine." Nothing like blaming AI for your technical debt while your package.json looks like a digital archaeological dig site. Meanwhile, your junior dev is quietly running "npm audit fix" in production.

Claiming you've been using ChatGPT since 1996 is like saying you had WiFi in the Middle Ages. For the youngsters: that's Courage the Cowardly Dog typing on a chunky beige PC from when the internet made dial-up sounds that haunted your nightmares. Back then, "AI assistance" meant asking your roommate if they remembered the syntax for a for-loop while they were in the shower. The closest thing to ChatGPT was probably Clippy, and even he couldn't help you reverse a binary tree.

SOMEONE PLEASE REVOKE THIS MAN'S DEVELOPER LICENSE IMMEDIATELY! 🚨 This tweet is the programming equivalent of saying "a hammer is just an API to nails" and "nails are an API to wood" and "wood is an API to trees." MAKE IT STOP! An API (Application Programming Interface) is a specific set of rules and protocols that allows different software applications to communicate with each other - NOT this cosmic tech ladder to the universe! The only thing this tweet proves is that if you string enough technical words together, you can sound profound while being CATASTROPHICALLY wrong. It's giving "I just discovered programming last week and now I'm having deep thoughts" energy.
