I Found A Job (That Costs $500 A Week)

SWEETIE, GitHub Copilot promised you'd code 55% faster, but FAILED to mention you'd be creating bugs at HIGHWAY SPEEDS! 💀 The coding police have arrived, and honey, your bug count is so high it's breaking traffic laws! Sure, you're typing like a caffeinated cheetah, but your code quality is giving "crash test dummy" vibes. That's not productivity—that's a CRIME SCENE waiting for a git commit!

OH MY GOD WHO PUT A LITERAL NIGHTMARE CREATURE ON AN AI BOOK?! 😱 Nothing says "I'm going to replace your job" quite like putting a horrifying deep-sea eldritch abomination on your tech book! That brittle star creature is SCREAMING "I will consume your soul while you sleep" but the men on the right are all of us witnessing the AI apocalypse in real time! O'Reilly books are known for animals, but they've officially crossed into psychological warfare territory with this one. Someone in marketing deserves both a raise and intensive therapy sessions. 💀

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.

The classic startup founder strategy: drop buzzwords like "AI" and "ML" while looking suspiciously like a baby in a tuxedo threatening investors. Nothing says "I'm totally qualified to run a tech company" like combining artificial intelligence jargon with mild extortion! The tiny suit really sells the "I've definitely completed multiple successful exits" vibe. VC funding secured in 3... 2... 1...

Look at us flexing with our fancy Python, JavaScript, and LLM integrations while the entire banking system runs on COBOL written by someone who retired in 1997. The real heroes aren't the bodybuilders showing off their shiny new frameworks—it's the lone programmer carrying decades of legacy code on their shoulders. Nothing says job security quite like being the only person who remembers how to maintain systems that process trillions of dollars daily but can't handle Y2K without duct tape and prayers.

Remember when we were gods among mortals? The 2021-2022 tech boom was like being SpongeBob and Patrick at an all-you-can-eat buffet of job offers, six-figure salaries, and companies practically begging us to take their money. Fast forward to 2025, and we're Squidward—watching from behind the blinds as layoffs spread faster than a poorly optimized for-loop. The tech bubble didn't just burst; it ghosted us harder than that recruiter who promised to "circle back." Now we're fighting over the one backend position that doesn't require "10+ years experience in a framework released last Tuesday."
