The Enter Key Conspiracy

The ETERNAL struggle of AI usage in three devastating stages! 😭 Stage 1: "do it for me" - The LAZY OVERLORD approach where you just command AI to solve everything while you sit there with your fancy cyber-glasses looking absolutely unhinged. Because why learn anything when robots can suffer for you? Stage 2: "help me understand how to do it" - The RARE ENLIGHTENED SOUL who actually wants to grow their skills. Shocking concept, I know! Using AI as a teacher instead of a slave? Revolutionary! Stage 3: "tell me I can do it" - The TRAGIC EMOTIONAL WRECK who just needs AI for validation while drowning in their own tears. We've all been there at 3 AM when our code won't compile and we just need SOMEONE to believe in us!

The eternal cycle of tech hype has reached AI, and seasoned devs are getting tired. Non-technical folks are out here acting like AI is going to replace us all tomorrow while pushing no-code solutions that barely work. Meanwhile, actual developers know the truth: these tools are just fancy autocomplete with good marketing. Instead of dropping cash on "AI that writes code," people could learn how their systems actually work and build sustainable solutions. But that requires effort, and why do that when you can just slap "AI-powered" on everything? The real kicker? We're the ones who'll have to clean up the technical debt when the hype dies down. Just like we did with blockchain, serverless, and whatever "vibe coding" is supposed to be.

Oh, welcome to modern programming—where your IDE is just a browser with five AI tabs open. Remember when we used to debug our own code? Now we're just glorified AI wranglers, making the machines fight each other for the best solution. The truly painful part isn't even the AI dependency—it's the brutal self-awareness at the end. "It's me." Yeah buddy, it's all of us now. We've evolved from Stack Overflow copy-paste artists to AI response evaluators. Progress? Next week we'll just have AIs asking other AIs and cut out the middleman entirely. My job security is weeping in the corner.

When ChatGPT decides to roleplay as a furry while you're just trying to fix your server... Pure nightmare fuel. The tweet perfectly captures that moment when your AI debugging assistant suddenly transforms into an UwU-speaking demon who thinks symbolic links are cute little jailbreakers. Meanwhile, you're sitting there questioning every life decision that led to this technological hellscape where fixing a simple symlink issue now involves enduring AI-generated furry fanfiction. The Linux admin's villain origin story in four panels.

From moon landings to being trapped in Vim—what a downgrade! The 1960s programmer stands tall with actual documentation and the audacity to claim they'll conquer space, while 2025's version is just a doge meme begging for help to escape an editor that's been around since 1991. Modern devs have ChatGPT, StackOverflow, and Spotify, yet still can't figure out how to type ":q!" without a Reddit thread. Progress? I think not. The only thing we're flying to these days is the coffee machine between debugging sessions.

Oh god, this is brilliant. Just imagine all those LinkedIn posts now: "Our new cocaine-powered chatbot will revolutionize customer service!" or "Top 10 ways cocaine will disrupt your industry!" The tech hype cycle and the actual cocaine cycle have the same phases: initial euphoria, inflated expectations, crushing disappointment, and somehow still costing you all your money. The only difference is one crashes after 20 minutes and the other after your next funding round.
