Leave Me Alone I Am Fine

OH. MY. GOD. The IDE is not just highlighting the error—it's offering to FIX IT WITH AI! 💀 This is the digital equivalent of handing a junior dev the keys to production and saying "whatever happens, happens!" The computer is literally telling us "children doesn't exist" and then offering to write our code FOR US. Excuse me while I update my LinkedIn profile to "Former Developer" because if AI can debug React props, what am I even doing with my life?! Next thing you know, it'll be writing passive-aggressive comments about my variable naming conventions!

So Michael Burry thinks trade jobs are "AI-proof" and uses Claude to do electrical work around his house. Then he drops the absolute bomb: "I am not so sure." The guy who predicted the 2008 housing crisis is now betting against the "AI won't replace blue-collar jobs" narrative. If an AI chatbot can guide someone through electrical work—a field requiring years of apprenticeship, code knowledge, and the ability to not die from 240V—what's stopping it from replacing actual electricians? The irony is chef's kiss: while using AI to do trade work, he realizes trade work might not be safe from AI. It's like watching someone discover they're standing on the thing they're about to short sell. The "Big Short 2026" format suggests we're heading toward another market collapse, except this time it's the job market getting wrecked by AI. Burry's track record of being catastrophically right about catastrophic things makes this extra unsettling. Time to learn underwater basket weaving—surely AI can't do that... right?

AI companies out here selling glorified parrots as revolutionary technology, and CEOs are eating it up like it's the second coming of electricity. The sales pitch: "Look, it makes noises that vaguely resemble human conversation!" The CEO's response: "Perfect! Fire everyone and let it diagnose cancer." Nothing says "sound business decision" quite like replacing your entire workforce with a statistical model that's essentially playing Mad Libs with the entire internet. Sure, it doesn't understand context, nuance, or reality, but it sounds confident, and that's apparently all that matters in the C-suite these days. The jump from "mimics speech patterns" to "can diagnose medical disorders" is the kind of logical leap that would make even the most optimistic venture capitalist nervous. But hey, when you've already fired your entire staff, who's left to tell you it's a terrible idea? Certainly not the chatbot that just hallucinated your company's entire medical liability insurance policy.

Oh. My. GOD. That moment when you've been coding for 48 hours straight, fueled by nothing but energy drinks and sheer desperation, and suddenly your AI code assistant cuts you off because you've used up all your precious credits! 💀 You finally look at the absolute MONSTROSITY you've created with your own two hands and it's like meeting a demon spawn you don't even recognize! What IS this unholy abomination of nested if-statements and variable names like 'temp2Final_WORKS_DONTTOUCH'?! The primitive caveman brain takes over as you stare at your creation... confused unga bunga indeed. No AI to save you now, just you and your crimes against computer science!

That face when the junior dev confidently explains an AI-generated pull request that's 90% hallucinated features and 10% actual code. The smug little smile says it all: "I totally understand what's happening here" while internally panicking about what await Promise.resolve(undefined).then(() => Math.random() > 0.5 ? 'success' : throw new Error('oops')) is supposed to accomplish. The code review is scheduled for 3pm and Stack Overflow is already open in 17 tabs.

Behold the magnificent journey of a "non-technical" founder going from AI-generated hubris to digital humility in just 48 hours! First tweet: "Look at my amazing no-code SaaS built with AI! Stop complaining and start building! P.S. People actually pay for this!" Two days later: "Help! I'm being attacked! My API keys are maxed out, people are bypassing subscriptions, and my database is a dumpster fire! BTW, I'm not technical so... oops?" The classic tale of finding out that building secure software requires more than just dragging and dropping with Cursor. Turns out "zero hand-written code" also means "zero security considerations." Who could have possibly predicted that?
