There You Go

Ah yes, the mythical beast of modern development - half dog, half ostrich, all ChatGPT. Your codebase is about to experience the "uncanny valley" indeed. One end barks confidently about solutions it doesn't understand while the other buries its head in the sand when debugging time comes. The "OH REALLY?" at the top is what your senior developer mutters when you claim your AI-generated monstrosity is "original work." Next edition will feature a creature that's half Stack Overflow, half deadline panic.

ChatGPT taking a full 34 seconds to transform "yo G" into a corporate email greeting is the digital equivalent of rehearsing a phone call 17 times before dialing. That AI is definitely sweating in binary while crafting the perfect response that screams "I definitely know how to human correctly." Next update: GPT-5 with built-in social anxiety and the ability to ghost conversations for days.

Ah, the beautiful dance of prompt engineering! This is what happens when you try to get an AI to generate a specific movie scene but keep hitting content policy walls. The user starts with a simple request for a Samuel L. Jackson meme, and watches in horror as the AI keeps multiplying characters with each attempt like it's running some bizarre cloning experiment. This is basically modern programming in 2024 - spending hours trying to phrase your request juuuust right so the AI doesn't hallucinate an entire cast reunion when you just wanted one angry dude with a gun. The final result? A perfect example of how "prompt engineering" is just fancy talk for "begging the computer to do what you actually want instead of what it thinks you want."

The evolution of software engineering in its natural habitat! First, we have the innocent "Software Engineer" - just a regular Pooh bear doing honest work. Then there's the slightly pretentious "Sr Software Engineer" - same bear, just wearing a tux and acting fancy because they learned what a design pattern is. But the final form? The "pRoMpt eNgiNeEr" with that cursed ransom-note typography - it's just a deranged panda typing "make me a website that looks like Amazon but better" into ChatGPT and calling it coding. The tech industry's equivalent of ordering a pizza and claiming you made dinner.

When your resume is just a list of tech companies that imploded right after you left. Nothing suspicious here, folks. Just a trail of digital catastrophes following this person like a shadow. Netflix sports streaming that doesn't exist yet, CrowdStrike's Windows update disaster, Google's Gemini historical figure fiasco, Silicon Valley Bank collapse, and FTX's crypto meltdown. Hiring managers will definitely not notice this pattern of working at companies right before they face existential crises. Solid career strategy - join, collect paycheck, abandon ship, repeat.
