Revolutionary Startup Idea: Being The Middleman

Content GAME DEVS f чо You guys always act like you're better than me umm PEOPLE WHO NEVER MADE GAME EXPLAINING WITH FULL CONFIDENCE EXACTLY HOW YOUR GAME SHOULD'VE BEEN MADE

Asking an AI to convert your entire JavaScript codebase to TypeScript with "make no mistakes" is like asking a genie for unlimited wishes. Sure, Claude's sitting there all innocent with its little cursor blinking, but behind that interface is the digital equivalent of sweating profusely. Converting JS to TS isn't just adding some colons and angle brackets—it's archaeological excavation where half the artifacts are actually landmines. The real comedy starts when you merge that PR and suddenly your build pipeline looks like a crime scene investigation.

Ah, the dream job has finally arrived. Not only do you get to work for free as a "Prompt Engineer," but you also pay $500 weekly for the privilege of... doing unpaid work. It's basically an expensive subscription to pretend you have a job. Next up: paying for air to breathe in the office. The recruiter probably thinks they're being generous by not charging for bathroom breaks.

Ah, the beautiful delusion of being in the elite 30% that AI can't replace. The awkward side-eye monkey meme perfectly captures that moment of existential dread when you realize your code is actually 17 nested if-statements and three Stack Overflow copies. Let's be honest—we all immediately did that mental calculation: "Surely I'm in the top tier of programmers!" Meanwhile, our Git commit history is just variations of "fixed bug" and "please work this time." Fun fact: The real top 30% are too busy writing documentation to even see this meme.

The corporate tech evolution in one image! On the left, we have Steve Ballmer's infamous sweaty "DEVELOPERS!" chant from 2000—back when human coders were the golden ticket to success. Fast forward to 2023, and CEOs are now calmly announcing how AI will "revolutionize our lives" while simultaneously telling HR to fire thousands of the same developers they once desperately needed. The tech industry's relationship status with developers: "It's complicated." Yesterday's rockstars are today's budget line items. Nothing says "thanks for building our trillion-dollar empires" quite like being replaced by the very tools you created.

The ultimate job security plan: write code so chaotic that even superintelligent AI takes one look and nopes right out. SpongeBob with his half-lidded eyes and notebook represents every developer who's created such an unholy tangle of spaghetti code that it's basically encrypted by incompetence. The AI apocalypse might be coming for our jobs, but it'll have to decrypt your 3AM variable naming conventions and uncommented hacks first. Your technical debt isn't a liability—it's a defensive moat!
