If You Know You Know

Remember when we actually knew how to build websites? Now I've got a decade of experience but can't center a div without asking ChatGPT. The moment those AI servers go down, I'm reduced to a praying mantis in human form, desperately hoping my muscle memory kicks in for basic HTML tags. "What was that flexbox syntax again? Is it justify-content or align-items? LORD HELP ME."

Foreign intelligence agencies are having their easiest day ever. Nothing says "career suicide" quite like uploading Department of Defense codebase to a random AI app with a blue whale logo. The intern's about to learn why security clearances exist and why "helpful" free apps are sometimes just fancy honeypots. Next week's headline: "Former intern seeks asylum in country with no extradition treaty."

Wanted to draw a duck, ended up with a startup and a beach house. That's what I call failing upwards. Gemini 3.0 apparently doesn't just generate code—it generates entire business plans and retirement strategies. Google's AI has officially reached the "midlife crisis financial advisor" stage of evolution. Next thing you know, it'll be suggesting you invest in NFTs of that duck you originally wanted.

The ultimate statistical irony: a bell curve meme about bell curves that perfectly follows... a bell curve. You've got the low-IQ folks who think bell curves are funny because "haha, pretty graph go brrr," the high-IQ intellectuals who appreciate bell curves for the exact same reason, and the middle-of-the-curve galaxy brains screaming "BAN BELL CURVES!!1!" with the intensity of someone who just discovered their entire codebase uses tabs instead of spaces. The distribution of opinions about bell curves literally forms a bell curve, and that's the kind of recursive humor that keeps me going through sprint planning meetings.

Behold the UNHOLY ABOMINATION that is modern development! 🧟‍♂️ Up top we have the absolute CIRCUS of ingredients - Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, random GitHub code you found at 3AM, documentation you barely skimmed, and YouTube tutorials made by someone who sounds like they're 12 but somehow knows more than your entire CS degree taught you. And what emerges from this UNGODLY FUSION? That tiny, pathetic rodent labeled "My actual code" - which you somehow stitch together into the bizarre chimera that is your "working code." Then the client shows up, looks at your creation, and has the AUDACITY to ask "What the hell is this?" as if they didn't ask for "Netflix but better" with a budget of $12 and a deadline of yesterday. THE NERVE! 💅

Oh. My. GOD! In this parallel universe, a robot is painting Totoro (the beloved Studio Ghibli character) instead of creating yet another AI-generated monstrosity! THE ABSOLUTE IRONY! While we're over here having existential crises about AI taking over our jobs, somewhere in the multiverse, AI is just chilling, making cute little anime portraits and living its best artsy life! Meanwhile, our GPT is busy writing passive-aggressive emails and generating 50 ways to optimize your LinkedIn profile! HONESTLY, I'D SWITCH UNIVERSES IN A HEARTBEAT! 💅
