Pls Fix My Garbage Code

The schadenfreude is palpable. Senior devs have watched this movie before—junior copies ChatGPT code, junior deploys ChatGPT code, production server bursts into flames. There's a special kind of satisfaction watching someone learn the hard way that AI doesn't understand edge cases or business logic. It's the circle of dev life: you either die a ChatGPT believer or live long enough to become the cackling senior who saw it coming.

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of claiming ChatGPT as your programming language! 😱 This is like saying "I'm a chef" because you can microwave a Hot Pocket! The sheer DRAMA of getting choked out by your fellow developers for the coding equivalent of saying you're fluent in Google Translate! The modern developer's existential crisis in three acts: claim to be a programmer, name AI as your language, get absolutely DEMOLISHED by the programming community. Chef's kiss to whoever made this masterpiece of tech industry trauma.

Future playground insults just got upgraded from "Your mom" jokes to "Your mom codes in VibeCoder" — implying she uses some fictional 2045 programming language that's so outdated or cringe it's basically the equivalent of coding COBOL on punch cards while wearing socks with sandals. The real burn is that by 2045, we'll probably all be begging AI to fix our legacy React code while it silently judges our primitive syntax.

Remember when Microsoft was the unstoppable titan that had governments filing antitrust lawsuits because they were too dominant? Yeah, those were the days. Back in the 90s, they were flexing hard with Windows 95, crushing Netscape, and basically owning the entire desktop market like a monopolistic bodybuilder. Fast forward to today, and they've gone from "our OS will dominate the world" to desperately begging you to try their AI chatbot. "Please use Bing! We added ChatGPT! Look, Copilot can write your emails!" It's like watching a former heavyweight champion now selling protein shakes on Instagram. The transformation is wild—from antitrust villain to the company that's just happy you're using Edge (which is just Chrome with extra steps anyway). They went from "embrace, extend, extinguish" to "embrace open source and pray people notice us."

Someone built an entire production app using thousands of AI-generated prompts over several months, admits they don't code or understand HTML/JS, and is now confused why nobody wants to help fix it. They insist "vibecoder skill IS engineering" which is basically like saying watching Gordon Ramsay makes you a chef. The best part? They're calling actual developers "dinosaurs" for not embracing their prompt-driven development methodology. Nothing says "I'm a serious engineer" quite like having zero ability to debug your own production code and getting defensive about it on Reddit. The gatekeeping comment at the top is chef's kiss. Expecting someone to understand the code running their production app is apparently now considered elitist gatekeeping. We've reached peak 2024.

The duality of modern developers: initially impressed by shiny new AI features, followed immediately by the desperate search for the "off" button. GitHub Copilot might finish your code, but it also finishes your patience when it confidently suggests the wrong solution for the fifth time in a row. The real 10x developer move isn't using AI—it's knowing exactly when to turn it off.
