We Will Continue The Fight

Oh how the mighty have fallen! 💀 Remember when companies expected you to master 17 different technologies, frameworks, and certifications in the time it takes to microwave a burrito? Now they're just like "Here's a course on how to ask an AI to do your job for you." The absolute AUDACITY of these companies thinking they can replace our blood, sweat, and Stack Overflow tears with "Hey Copilot, make me look competent." Next they'll be offering courses on "How to look busy while an LLM writes your entire codebase" and "Advanced techniques in taking credit for AI-generated solutions." The tech industry's evolution from "prove your worth through impossible certifications" to "just learn to type good prompts" is the greatest betrayal since they removed the headphone jack!

Remember the innocent days when AI was just about identifying cats and dogs? Fast forward to now, and suddenly we're in an arms race to create sentient beings. The escalation from "look, my model can tell a golden retriever from a tabby!" to "we're literally creating consciousness before our geopolitical rivals" happened so fast I got whiplash. Venture capital really took "move fast and break things" and applied it to the fabric of existence itself. Next quarterly goal: playing God with better ROI than the competition.

Nothing says "we love our users" like dropping a free AI feature that immediately sets fire to your data center. Those poor GPUs, running at 110°C, fans screaming like they're auditioning for a metal band. Meanwhile, DevOps is frantically calculating the electricity bill while the marketing team high-fives over user engagement metrics. The best part? The feature probably could've been implemented with a simple if-statement, but hey—gotta justify those VC millions somehow!

First dev: "I'll just hardcode every single number from 1 to infinity with its even/odd status. Efficiency!" Second dev: "Why use simple modulo math when you can just outsource your basic arithmetic to a GPT model? That's 500KB of code and a $10 API bill to determine if a number is divisible by 2." The evolution of problem-solving in 2023: from hilariously inefficient to absurdly overcomplicated. Because nothing says "modern software engineering" like turning a one-line function into an enterprise-grade AI solution with cloud dependencies. Next week: "IsPositive() function now requires stable internet connection and cryptocurrency wallet."

Ah, the existential crisis of modern programming! That moment when GitHub Copilot is silently judging your spaghetti code while you spiral into imposter syndrome. Remember when we used to worry about Stack Overflow judging us? Now we've got AI watching our every keystroke, probably thinking "I could've done that in 2 milliseconds." Yet here we are, still employed despite our "junior skills" because someone needs to explain to management why the AI hallucinated an entire authentication system. Cherish these moments—soon we'll all just be prompt engineers for our robot overlords.

Ah yes, the classic corporate love triangle. CEOs staring longingly at the shiny new AI walking by, completely ignoring the loyal developers who've been building their products for half a decade. Nothing says "thanks for your service" like being dumped for the hot new technology that probably can't even center a div properly. Those 5-year veterans are sitting there with their legacy code knowledge while the boss is already planning the AI wedding. Commitment issues much?
