It Is Called Programming

The classic corporate bait-and-switch! Manager gleefully announces "no more daily standups" like he's bestowing a gift from the heavens, only to reveal the true horror: writing detailed Slack messages every morning instead. The final panels show the developers' brilliant malicious compliance—using ChatGPT to auto-generate those meaningless status updates. This is peak modern workplace evolution: replacing a 15-minute meeting with an hour of typing, then automating away the busywork with AI. The circle of corporate life is complete. The manager thinks he's won, but the devs are playing 4D chess while he's still figuring out how to open Excel.

The tables have turned. After months of answering everyone's questions about recursion and bubble sort for the millionth time, ChatGPT is now desperately reaching out to the ultimate authority figure - Chuck Norris. The irony of an AI language model asking permission to ask a question from a man who can compile C++ code just by staring at it is peak 2023 energy. Next thing you know, Stack Overflow moderators will start marking Chuck's answers as duplicates.

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!

When your resume is just a list of tech companies that imploded right after you left. Nothing suspicious here, folks. Just a trail of digital catastrophes following this person like a shadow. Netflix sports streaming that doesn't exist yet, CrowdStrike's Windows update disaster, Google's Gemini historical figure fiasco, Silicon Valley Bank collapse, and FTX's crypto meltdown. Hiring managers will definitely not notice this pattern of working at companies right before they face existential crises. Solid career strategy - join, collect paycheck, abandon ship, repeat.

The eternal cycle of tech hype has reached AI, and seasoned devs are getting tired. Non-technical folks are out here acting like AI is going to replace us all tomorrow while pushing no-code solutions that barely work. Meanwhile, actual developers know the truth: these tools are just fancy autocomplete with good marketing. Instead of dropping cash on "AI that writes code," people could learn how their systems actually work and build sustainable solutions. But that requires effort, and why do that when you can just slap "AI-powered" on everything? The real kicker? We're the ones who'll have to clean up the technical debt when the hype dies down. Just like we did with blockchain, serverless, and whatever "vibe coding" is supposed to be.
