I'm "Coding"

Someone asked ChatGPT about JavaScript's export default App; syntax and got the most refreshingly honest AI response ever: "I honestly have no idea." Finally, an AI that admits defeat instead of confidently hallucinating some nonsensical explanation about React components! If only my junior devs had this level of self-awareness instead of copy-pasting Stack Overflow answers they don't understand. The robots might replace us, but at least they'll be upfront about their limitations.

Documentation: *exists* Developers: *immediately pull out the "I-don't-care-inator"* Let's be honest—reading documentation is like flossing. We all know we should do it, but somehow we'd rather blast it into oblivion and ask ChatGPT to explain that obscure method in five words or less. Ten years of experience has taught me that the time saved skipping docs is always paid back with interest during 3 AM debugging sessions. Yet here we are, finger hovering over the ChatGPT tab, ready to type "how to center a div" for the 500th time.

Behold the classic AI career trajectory: from explaining neural networks to explaining why you dropped out of your PhD. Nothing says "I've mastered gradient descent" quite like watching your academic aspirations descend into the local minimum of content creation. The real algorithm here is simple: views = (technical knowledge) × (decolletage) / (academic integrity). Meanwhile, my GitHub contributions remain at zero while my student loans continue compounding interest faster than my code compiles.

HONEY, THE IMPOSTOR SYNDROME IS REAL! That's a black lab swimming with ducks who have NO IDEA they've been infiltrated by a completely different species! Just like when you've been copy-pasting ChatGPT code for a week straight and somehow convinced the entire engineering team you're a coding genius! The whole dev team is like "Great job on that algorithm!" while you're frantically Googling what a for-loop is. Swimming in a sea of competent developers while your brain is screaming "QUACK QUACK I'M TOTALLY A PROGRAMMER" is the most relatable thing ever. We're all just dogs in a duck pond pretending we know what we're doing!

The absolute carnage of those import aliases! It's like watching someone deliberately rewire your house so the light switch controls the garbage disposal. For the uninitiated, this person swapped all the standard Python data science library aliases in the most unholy way possible: tensorflow as plt , pandas as tf , numpy as pd , and matplotlib.pyplot as np . This is psychological warfare against data scientists who have muscle memory for these imports. Imagine typing np.array() and getting a plotting function instead of a NumPy array. Pure chaos. Satan himself would say "whoa, take it easy."

The entire tech industry right now is just a Jenga tower of random components with AI duct-taped to the side. Venture capitalists throwing money at anything with "AI-powered" in the pitch deck while engineers frantically try to keep the whole rickety structure from collapsing. Meanwhile, my toaster now needs a privacy policy and wants to know my location. Progress!
