Stepped In Shit

The classic programmer paradox. Manually writing code for 30 minutes? Absolutely disgusting. But spending 3 hours configuring LLMs to generate code that would've taken 10 minutes to write? Now THAT'S what we call "productivity." It's the same energy as spending 5 hours automating a 30-minute weekly task and calling it "efficiency." The math doesn't add up, but the dopamine from avoiding actual work definitely does.

Ah, the classic corporate strategy meeting. On the left, a massive crowd flocks to the "Fancy-Tech-First" approach. "Let's blockchain our AI microservices in the cloud with quantum edge computing!" Meanwhile, one lonely soul stands at the "Problem-First" door. That person probably asked "What are we actually trying to solve here?" and was immediately labeled as "not a team player." The graveyard of failed digital transformation projects is filled with $10M solutions to $10K problems. But hey, at least the PowerPoint slides looked impressive.

Oh. My. GOD. This absolute MADMAN is out here coding UI in pure C while the rest of us are frantically learning our 47th JavaScript framework! 💅 Look at this CHAOS WIZARD manually drawing rectangles and buttons with raw C code like it's 1985! Meanwhile React developers are having existential crises when their npm packages are 3 minutes out of date. The AUDACITY of this programmer to declare "not getting replaced by AI" while doing something so unnecessarily complicated that even AI would look at it and say "no thanks, I'll stick to generating cat pictures." The video title says it all - this isn't about efficiency, it's about SPITE. Pure, beautiful, petty programmer spite. And with nearly half a million views, apparently spite sells!

The ultimate AI reverse uno card. Someone asks ChatGPT if it can write code without copying from others, and ChatGPT fires back with "No, can you?" Brutal existential burn considering literally none of us write code from scratch anymore. We're all just professional Stack Overflow archaeologists with fancy job titles. The irony is delicious—humans accusing AI of plagiarism while we're all just remixing snippets and libraries that someone else built. At least the AI is honest about it.

Ah, sweet summer child with dreams of "enhancing" the Linux kernel with AI. Linus Torvalds is probably already typing a profanity-laden email explaining why your brilliant idea belongs in the same category as "adding blockchain to grep" or "making systemd even bigger." The Linux kernel maintainers have spent decades perfecting schedulers that can run everything from supercomputers to toasters. But sure, slap some AI on it! While you're at it, why not rewrite the whole thing in JavaScript? Those 9 replies are probably ranging from "please read the kernel documentation first" to "who let the intern on the mailing list again?"

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.
