Holy Edge Case

The ultimate job security plan revealed! When AI threatens to replace coders by learning from clean, logical code, just switch to the ancient developer technique of writing incomprehensible spaghetti code with zero comments. I've been writing undocumented code for 15 years, but I always thought it was because I was lazy. Turns out I was just future-proofing my career against the robot uprising. Accidental genius!

Remember when we spent hours implementing binary trees and sorting algorithms from scratch? Now there's a line of developers sprinting toward ChatGPT while the "Data Structures & Algorithms" door collects dust. Why bother with Big O notation when you can just prompt engineer your way to a solution? The irony is we still need those fundamentals to understand if ChatGPT's code will crash and burn in production. But hey, who has time for that when deadlines are yesterday?

Remember when buying a GPU was just an expense and not a second mortgage? In 2009, dropping $500 on a graphics card felt like a splurge. Fast forward to 2025, and you're staring at a $4,799 price tag with the same horrified expression as someone who just found out their entire codebase has no comments. Thanks crypto miners, AI enthusiasts, and whatever unholy alliance of market forces conspired to make rendering pixels cost more than my first car. At this rate, we'll soon be trading organs for ray tracing capabilities.

The ultimate job security hack: be so utterly useless that even AI doesn't want your position! When your only contribution to the codebase is comments like "// TODO: fix this later" and your Git commits consist mainly of whitespace changes, you've achieved immortality in the corporate hierarchy. The sweet irony of being simultaneously worthless yet irreplaceable is the tech industry's greatest paradox. That guy's walking away with a smile because he just realized his strategy of writing completely undocumented spaghetti code for the last five years wasn't laziness—it was career insurance!

Ah yes, nothing says "efficient solution" like using a machete labeled "Deep learning" to slice through a tiny piece of bread labeled "Simple problem." The classic case of computational overkill. Why use a simple if-statement when you could train a 500-layer neural network that requires a small power plant to run? Next week: using quantum computing to calculate a 15% tip.

Sorting imports by character length instead of alphabetically or by module type? That's like organizing your sock drawer by how much each sock weighs. Sure, it looks oddly satisfying with that gradient effect, but your code reviewer is probably drafting your performance review right now. The real horror isn't the sorting method – it's that you're importing both matplotlib AND sklearn in the same file. That poor memory usage never stood a chance.
