If You Say So....

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!

That moment when GitHub Copilot helpfully suggests your private API key that you accidentally committed to a repo six months ago. Nothing like having your $5000/month AWS bill exposed by an AI that's just trying to be helpful. Security through obscurity fails again.

Putting on glasses to transform from "LLM Engineer" to "Knows about openai, anthropic and google-genai package" is peak tech industry smoke and mirrors. It's like calling yourself a "Cloud Architect" because you once deployed a WordPress site to AWS. The glasses don't add intelligence—they just help you see through the BS of your own job title. Next time someone introduces themselves as an "LLM Engineer," ask them if they can actually explain a transformer architecture or if they just know how to copy-paste API keys.

Remember when we used to frantically search Stack Overflow for solutions? Now everyone's lining up to ask ChatGPT while Stack Overflow stands empty like the last Blockbuster. The AI revolution didn't just shift paradigms—it shifted the queue. That one lonely developer at Stack Overflow is probably posting questions just to feel something again.

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.

Standing in a field waiting for AI to replace developers who can't handle regex? Might be a while. Regular expressions aren't actually hard—they're just a precise language for pattern matching that follows logical rules. The real challenge is remembering to escape your backslashes twice and not writing patterns so complex that future-you sends death threats to past-you. Meanwhile, AI still struggles with "select all images with traffic lights," so maybe learn regex instead of waiting for the robot uprising.
