If Only My Edge Detection Was This Good

The ABSOLUTE PEAK of modern communication: AI writing novels from your bullet points and condensing War and Peace into "book was good." We've evolved from actually communicating to just outsourcing our entire personality! 💅 Now we can all pretend to be intellectual email warriors without reading OR writing anything substantial. The digital equivalent of nodding through a conversation while scrolling Instagram. PEAK EFFICIENCY for the chronically lazy! Soon we'll just have AIs talking to other AIs while we take naps. #blessed

So Microsoft wants to eliminate C and C++ by 2030 using AI to rewrite their entire codebase. Because nothing says "brilliant strategy" like letting algorithms rewrite millions of lines of battle-tested code that's been running critical systems for decades. The hubris is *chef's kiss*. They're so busy flexing their AI muscles that they forgot to ask the most important question: just because you CAN automate the rewriting of foundational infrastructure doesn't mean you SHOULD. What could possibly go wrong with AI touching code that powers Windows, Office, and Azure? It's not like memory safety bugs are subtle or anything. The Jeff Goldblum meme from Jurassic Park is the perfect response here. They were so preoccupied with whether they could use AI to eliminate C/C++, they didn't stop to think if they should. Because replacing decades of institutional knowledge and battle-hardened code with AI-generated Rust (presumably) is definitely going to go smoothly. No edge cases, no undefined behavior gotchas, just pure algorithmic magic. Sure.

The brutal truth of modern tech interviews! At home, you're basically Thanos with the infinity gauntlet of tools—VSCode, GitHub Copilot, DeepSeek, and other AI assistants making you feel like you could snap half the bugs out of existence. But the moment you step into that interview room? Suddenly you're Rhino from Spider-Man—sweating in a ridiculous costume while trying to remember how to reverse a linked list on a whiteboard. The cognitive dissonance between our tool-augmented daily coding superpowers and the bare-metal interview process is the ultimate developer identity crisis.

Ah, the classic "Epic Handshake" meme repurposed to show how data scientists and fashion industry professionals are secretly twins separated at birth. Both spend their days training models, identifying trends, and obsessing over the perfect fit. One group just does it with neural networks while the other does it with neural breakdowns during fashion week. The real difference? One gets paid to work with Python, the other with python skin handbags.

The duality of modern developers: initially impressed by shiny new AI features, followed immediately by the desperate search for the "off" button. GitHub Copilot might finish your code, but it also finishes your patience when it confidently suggests the wrong solution for the fifth time in a row. The real 10x developer move isn't using AI—it's knowing exactly when to turn it off.
