VC Interview Be Like

Ah yes, the existential crisis of every Python developer. Born in 1991, older than Java (1995), yet somehow still the awkward middle child of programming languages. The counter showing "0 days without suicidal thoughts" is just *chef's kiss* perfect. Meanwhile, Java's out there running banking systems and Android, while Python's still trying to convince everyone that "no really, we're enterprise-ready too!" despite spending most of its time doing data science homework and gluing together other people's actual technologies. The bearded dev staring into the void with coffee is all of us who chose Python for its "simplicity" only to realize we picked the language equivalent of a participation trophy.

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute TRAGEDY of AI development in four painful acts! 😭 It starts with such INNOCENT OPTIMISM - breaking down the plan into features, like some kind of organizational GENIUS! Then the descent begins... features into tasks with that suspicious "fiask 3" typo lurking like a red flag from the debugging underworld. By panel three, we've entered full CHAOS territory with a file structure that would make Marie Kondo WEEP - file1.py somehow spawning ANOTHER file1.py?! The circular dependency from HELL! And the grand finale? Throwing your hands up and hiring an ACTUAL developer who knows what they're doing! Because nothing says "I've made terrible life choices" like watching your AI project implode spectacularly before it even reaches production!

The classic tech panic bait-and-switch! First half: "AI is coming for your jobs, web devs! DSA knowledge? Useless. MERN stack? Dead. Only learn ML and chase whatever shiny new tech appears on the horizon!" Then the punchline drops: "The more terrified everyone is, the fewer people will compete for jobs... which means more job security for me ." It's the programming equivalent of telling kids the ice cream truck only plays music when it's out of ice cream. Pure psychological warfare disguised as career advice!

Putting on glasses to transform from "LLM Engineer" to "Knows about openai, anthropic and google-genai package" is peak tech industry smoke and mirrors. It's like calling yourself a "Cloud Architect" because you once deployed a WordPress site to AWS. The glasses don't add intelligence—they just help you see through the BS of your own job title. Next time someone introduces themselves as an "LLM Engineer," ask them if they can actually explain a transformer architecture or if they just know how to copy-paste API keys.

Content You're a bunch of node.js hipsters that just HAVE to install everything you read on Hacker News! But Docker allows us to run our applications anywhere! Do you hear yourself? Why do we need docker if we're running a VM? A container inside a container!!!

The battle cry of every regex enthusiast who's watched AI models steal their thunder. Remember the good old days when text processing meant crafting the perfect regex pattern that looked like someone headbutted a keyboard? Now we've got billion-parameter models turning words into vectors and pretending they "understand" language. The bottom half showing "real NLP" with incomprehensible mathematical formulas and question marks is just *chef's kiss* - nothing says "human-friendly" like equations that would make even tenured professors reach for the aspirin. And that regex pattern in the middle? That's the ancient incantation developers used to summon the text-processing gods before we decided to burn exaflops of computing power to figure out if "John hates Mary" or if he's just having a bad day.
