I Am Full Stack Developer

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of these ChatGPT-wielding imposters! 💅 They waltz into interviews like "I'm a programmer" with their chest puffed out, but when asked about actual languages they know? *dramatic gasp* They whisper "ChatGPT" and suddenly everyone loses their minds! It's like showing up to a knife fight with a spork and expecting to be taken seriously! The coding community is LITERALLY having a collective aneurysm watching people who couldn't write a for-loop to save their lives claiming developer status because they can prompt an AI. Honey, asking ChatGPT to code for you doesn't make you a programmer any more than asking Siri for directions makes you a cartographer!

Ah, the Venn diagram of modern development. On the left: burnout, technical debt, pointless meetings, and constant reprioritizing. On the right: AI coding assistants speeding things up by Googling boilerplate code. And in that magical intersection? "Generating subtle, devastating bugs." That's efficiency for you—now we can create catastrophic failures twice as fast. Progress!

Content The Self Taught "Serious" Programmer Starter Kit "Just learn assemblv" What the hell is a proof? "bro, you don't need math" Has zero professional experience Lacks basic computer architecture fundamentals despite praising its importance Very active in r/_programming Over emphasizes the importance of code editors and sneers at IDEs made with mematie

OH SWEET MOTHER OF LEGACY CODE! On one side, IBM is using AI to translate ancient COBOL spells into modern Java incantations. On the other, some government agency named DOGE (not the meme, sadly) wants to rewrite MILLIONS of lines of Social Security code in MONTHS?! 😱 This is like watching two different approaches to defusing a nuclear bomb - one careful robot surgeon vs. a toddler with safety scissors and a "can-do" attitude. The entire financial future of American retirees hanging in the balance because someone thought "Hey, let's just YOLO this 60-year-old codebase real quick!" I'm having heart palpitations just thinking about it! For the uninitiated: COBOL is that programming language your grandpa used that refuses to die because it runs basically EVERYTHING important - banks, airlines, and yes, your social security checks. It's the digital equivalent of those load-bearing walls you definitely shouldn't knock down during your weekend renovation project.

The corporate AI fever in a single frame! That dad just burned through millions on generative AI "proof-of-concepts" that will forever remain in the graveyard of tech demos. The son's sarcastic "What a legend" is peak engineering cynicism—he already knows these projects are the software equivalent of buying a treadmill that becomes a clothes hanger. Meanwhile, every ML engineer is nodding furiously because they've watched executives throw cash at half-baked AI ideas with the ROI strategy of "figure it out later." The real production environment was the friends we made along the way!

Left guy's in denial about AI coding tools while right guy's already seen the git blame logs from the future. The eternal cycle continues: new tech emerges, developers panic, then end up maintaining the mess it creates. The only constant in programming is cleaning up after the latest "revolutionary" tool. Just wait until we're all writing prompts to fix the prompts that fixed the code that broke the system.
