Is This The AI Bubble?

The modern programmer's productivity killer isn't compiling code anymore—it's hitting the ChatGPT rate limit. Nothing quite justifies a coffee break like that "Too many requests" message. The best part? Even your manager can't argue with AI infrastructure limitations. "Sorry boss, I'm not slacking off... I'm just waiting for OpenAI's servers to let me be productive again." The perfect crime.

Turns out your AI girlfriend is just a GPU running hot in a server farm somewhere. Strip away the fancy filters and you're dating $1500 worth of silicon that's probably mining crypto behind your back when you're not looking. At least she'll never complain about the room temperature – she's already running at 85°C.

The eternal struggle with AI coding assistants! That moment when you're desperately trying to avoid Copilot's "helpful" suggestions because you know they'll introduce six new bugs that'll crash your entire project. It's like having a well-meaning but chaotic intern who keeps trying to "fix" your code while you physically try to block their keyboard access. The hands hovering defensively over the keyboard perfectly capture that "please stop helping me" energy every developer has felt when an AI decides to "optimize" perfectly functional code.

GitHub's savage billboard burns us all to a crisp with brutal honesty. They trained their AI Copilot on our garbage code, then have the audacity to hang a building-sized sign explaining why their tool produces questionable results. It's like blaming the student for the teacher's incompetence—except we're the incompetent teachers. The ultimate "it's not me, it's you" breakup line from the tech world. Next time your PR gets rejected, just point at this billboard and say "not my fault, I'm just a product of my environment."

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.

Ah, the ultimate job security plan! Turns out the one person AI won't replace is the colleague who contributes absolutely nothing. That sweet spot where you're so useless that even automation can't justify the ROI of replacing you. It's like finding a bug so bizarre that QA just labels it as "expected behavior" and moves on. The perfect defense against technological unemployment isn't upskilling—it's strategic incompetence!
