The Perfect Developer Alibi

That score of -17 is the real cherry on top. Someone's worried AI is making Stack Overflow obsolete, but can't even formulate a proper question that meets basic standards. The irony is delicious—complaining about AI ruining the platform while demonstrating exactly why moderation exists in the first place. Maybe instead of fighting the AI revolution, spend five minutes learning how to ask a focused question? Just a thought.

Ah, the classic "I'll just install this cool new tool" saga that ends with your entire workflow in shambles. Cursor (an AI coding assistant) decided it wasn't content being just another app—it wanted to be THE app by hijacking the sacred 'code' command. This is why we can't have nice things in tech. Some product manager somewhere thought, "You know what developers would love? If we silently changed their muscle memory commands without asking!" Ten years of typing the same command, and suddenly you're launching the wrong app because some DevEx team decided their tool deserves keyboard shortcut supremacy. The real kicker is the "No prompt. No warning. Just broken flow." That's developer tool installation in its purest form—surprise chaos with a side of productivity loss. Always read the install scripts, kids. DevEx might be in the details, but so is the devil.

Two doors. One leads to "Working on Real-World Projects" and stands completely empty. The other leads to "Next AI/Data Bootcamp" with a line stretching to the horizon. Everyone's rushing to become the next AI guru while actual project experience collects dust. The tech industry's version of a Black Friday sale – except what they're fighting for is just another certificate to add to their LinkedIn profile.

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.

The Nobel Committee turning its back on actual computer science to ogle traditional physics is the academic equivalent of your crush ignoring your perfectly engineered app to date someone who can explain why apples fall from trees. Quantum computing? Machine learning breakthroughs? Nah, let's give another medal to someone who found a slightly different way to measure gravity. Meanwhile, the folks revolutionizing how we process information are left swiping through job postings that require "5+ years experience in a framework released last Tuesday."

The iceberg of AI terror is real, folks! On the surface, it's just "AI" - those fancy chatbots everyone's talking about. Dive a bit deeper and you hit "Machine Learning" where your code starts making decisions without you explicitly telling it how. But the true horror? That murky "Deep Learning" zone where neural networks do their black magic. And what's holding this entire technological monstrosity together? Some poor developer's spaghetti Python code and linear algebra that they barely remember from college. The whole industry is basically running on StackOverflow answers and caffeine. Next time someone says they "work in AI," remember they're just the tip of an iceberg floating on a sea of mathematical duct tape and prayer.
