Karma Is Real

Fixing a bug in 30 minutes? Easy peasy, disgusted face. Spending an entire workday explaining to ChatGPT what your codebase does, your business logic, and why that one legacy function from 2014 can't be touched? Chef's kiss. The irony is delicious. We've gone from "let me just fix this myself" to "let me spend 8x longer teaching an AI about all our technical debt so it can suggest the same fix I would've made anyway." Future job posting: "Senior Prompt Engineer - Must have 5+ years experience explaining code to machines that pretend to understand."

Ah yes, the revolutionary AI integration strategy: squirting a tiny bit of machine learning onto a bar of legacy code and calling it "innovation." That soap dispenser is working exactly as intended – technically dispensing something, but completely missing the point. Just like how adding a chatbot that can only say "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" somehow justifies a 20% price increase. Investors impressed, users unimpressed, developers wondering if they should update their resume.

The battle cry of every regex enthusiast who's watched AI models steal their thunder. Remember the good old days when text processing meant crafting the perfect regex pattern that looked like someone headbutted a keyboard? Now we've got billion-parameter models turning words into vectors and pretending they "understand" language. The bottom half showing "real NLP" with incomprehensible mathematical formulas and question marks is just *chef's kiss* - nothing says "human-friendly" like equations that would make even tenured professors reach for the aspirin. And that regex pattern in the middle? That's the ancient incantation developers used to summon the text-processing gods before we decided to burn exaflops of computing power to figure out if "John hates Mary" or if he's just having a bad day.

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.

Oh how the mighty have fallen! 💀 Remember when companies expected you to master 17 different technologies, frameworks, and certifications in the time it takes to microwave a burrito? Now they're just like "Here's a course on how to ask an AI to do your job for you." The absolute AUDACITY of these companies thinking they can replace our blood, sweat, and Stack Overflow tears with "Hey Copilot, make me look competent." Next they'll be offering courses on "How to look busy while an LLM writes your entire codebase" and "Advanced techniques in taking credit for AI-generated solutions." The tech industry's evolution from "prove your worth through impossible certifications" to "just learn to type good prompts" is the greatest betrayal since they removed the headphone jack!

Nothing says "we love our users" like dropping a free AI feature that immediately sets fire to your data center. Those poor GPUs, running at 110°C, fans screaming like they're auditioning for a metal band. Meanwhile, DevOps is frantically calculating the electricity bill while the marketing team high-fives over user engagement metrics. The best part? The feature probably could've been implemented with a simple if-statement, but hey—gotta justify those VC millions somehow!
