When The Non Tech Guy Doesnt Know What Enable Regexp Means

The circle of life in tech! Designers freaking out when devs use AI to make pretty UIs, while developers glare suspiciously when designers start generating code. It's the digital equivalent of "stay in your lane, bro." After 15 years in the industry, I've seen territorial battles over who gets to use which tools, but this AI turf war is next level. Soon we'll all just be prompt engineers yelling at each other about who wrote the better instruction set.

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!!!

Just sitting back with my popcorn watching the AI hype train derail in slow motion. All these devs who pivoted their entire careers to "prompt engineering" are about to discover what us old-timers already know - there's no shortcut to understanding the fundamentals. When the hallucinations pile up and the VC money dries out, guess who'll be debugging the mess? The same people who've been writing actual code for decades. Munching carrots while watching careers burn is my new hobby.

The year is 2035. Your GitHub page now takes 15 minutes to load because it's scanning your code with 47 different AI tools, showing ads for Microsoft products, and suggesting you upgrade to Copilot Premium Plus Pro Max. Meanwhile, your diff is still "loading in 2 seconds" like it has been for the past decade. Progress! The real kicker? You'll still need to explain to the AI assistant why your perfectly valid code isn't actually a security vulnerability for the 500th time this week. But hey, at least now it can suggest you build a Pong game while you wait!

Ah, the classic "stay in your lane" principle taken to its logical conclusion! When someone who knows nothing about cars or rockets starts pontificating about software, it's like watching a toddler try to explain quantum physics. Every developer has that moment of clarity when a non-technical person with a god complex starts explaining how "AI just needs more if-else statements" or how "coding is just typing." The beautiful irony is that software is the one field where we can actually verify someone's genius (or lack thereof) with a simple code review. Suddenly all those "genius" credentials start looking like a Stack Overflow copy-paste job with syntax errors.

THE SWEET, SWEET LIBERATION! 😭 Developers everywhere are WEEPING TEARS OF JOY now that AI has swooped in like some coding superhero to murder our toxic relationship with StackOverflow! No more getting absolutely DESTROYED for asking why your code isn't working! No more comments like "This question was asked in 1874, do your research!" No more downvotes because you forgot a semicolon! It's like being released from programming prison where the guards were all people with 500k reputation points who judged your will to live based on your question formatting. FREEDOM AT LAST!
