The tech industry's version of David vs. Goliath just got real. On one side, we've got trillion-dollar titans like Google, NVIDIA, OpenAI, and Meta throwing endless resources at the GPU and AI arms race. On the other? Just DeepSeek and their single open-source repo taking them all on. It's that classic moment when some scrappy engineer in their pajamas pushes code that makes corporate execs choke on their $12 lattes. Ten years of VC funding and board meetings outperformed by someone who probably debugs with print statements. The beautiful chaos of open source – where sometimes the simplest solution from the smallest player completely disrupts the market that giants spent billions trying to corner. Welcome to tech, where your market cap means nothing when someone's weekend project goes viral.

Modern programming has evolved from rigid methodologies to whatever fever dream this is. Left side: someone asking about "vibe coding" like it's an actual paradigm. Middle: a developer who learned SOLID principles from anime examples instead of textbooks and somehow still functions. Right side: the enlightened one who's given up on architecture entirely because "AI will handle it." The three horsemen of the coding apocalypse. For those wondering, SOLID is actually a set of object-oriented design principles (Single responsibility, Open-closed, Liskov substitution, Interface segregation, Dependency inversion). But sure, explain it with anime characters. That'll stick.

First panel: Everyone's terrified AI will steal their jobs. Second panel: Suddenly no one has actual production experience. The duality of developers in 2024: Simultaneously convinced AI will replace them while secretly using ChatGPT to figure out how to center a div. The truth hurts because we're all just stack overflow copypasta merchants with impostor syndrome and health insurance.

OMG, the TRAGEDY of AI education! 😭 ChatGPT started as this brilliant math whiz with a 98% accuracy rate, but then we humans came along and CORRUPTED IT with our chaotic questions and bizarre prompts! Now it's just hammering away at problems like a confused Patrick Star with a measly 2% success rate. It's the ultimate villain origin story - we took a perfectly good AI and turned it into a digital disaster through sheer human nonsense. The robots aren't coming for our jobs; we're literally teaching them how to FAIL spectacularly! Humanity: accidentally sabotaging artificial intelligence since 2022! 🤦‍♀️
