Original Like My Code

When you spent years mastering tree inversions in C++ with all those pointer gymnastics, memory leaks, and segmentation faults only to watch some kid ask ChatGPT to do it in 5 seconds. The audacity. The betrayal. Back in my day, we debugged with print statements and cried silently into our mechanical keyboards.

Sure, your AI agent built that app in 5 minutes, but good luck maintaining that spaghetti junction of code six months from now. The left shows traditional development—straightforward, predictable, maybe boring but gets you where you need to go. The right is modern AI development—looks impressive with all those fancy switches and signals, but one wrong move and your train derails into dependency hell. I've seen enough "AI-accelerated" projects crash and burn to know that speed now means tech debt later. The complexity always comes due.

The secret to tech wealth in 2025? Just slap "AI" on literally anything! Remember when we called them "scripts" and "automation"? Now they're "autonomous agents" with a 500% markup. Next week I'll be renaming my if-statements to "neural decision nodes" and retiring to my private island. The venture capital money practically throws itself at you!

The perfect juxtaposition of human relationships and code commitments. While people are discussing wedding day abandonment drama above, some dev is casually flexing about building a GitHub issue processor with pocket change worth of API calls below. This is the digital equivalent of someone announcing their pregnancy at someone else's funeral. Algorithmic tone-deafness at its finest. That ad placement is so bad it's almost impressive—like when your junior dev pushes directly to production on Friday at 4:59pm.

When Jensen Huang trades his iconic leather jacket for a suit, you know GPU prices are about to make your wallet cry harder than a junior dev facing legacy code without documentation. The man's fashion choices are literally a NASDAQ indicator at this point. Leather jacket Jensen: "We're innovating!" Suit Jensen: "We're strategically adjusting our value proposition upward by 300%."

Ah, the classic "spend 2 minutes and 2 seconds to count to 10" problem. ChatGPT just turned basic geometry into a research dissertation. That's the same energy as developers who write 200 lines of documentation for a function that returns true or false. The best part? It's clearly a heptagon (7 sides), but ChatGPT's counting each "distinct corner" like it's being paid by the vertex. Next up: AI spending 4 minutes explaining why 2+2=5 with "reasoned thinking."
