Yippee AI Will Take Over Our Jobs

The classic "rub the lamp and make a wish" scenario, but with a programmer twist. Some poor soul wishes NVIDIA wouldn't make GPUs with 8GB VRAM, and the genie's just like "yeah... not happening." It's the digital equivalent of asking for world peace. Even supernatural beings can't convince NVIDIA to put more memory in their mid-range cards without charging you a kidney. The genie doesn't even bother offering three wishes—just straight to "hopeless" because he knows the GPU market better than anyone.

Nothing says "I'm a serious developer" quite like dropping $3000 on a PC just to run VS Code and Chrome. The unholy matrimony of NVIDIA and Ryzen—where your GPU costs more than your car payment and your CPU has more cores than you have meaningful relationships. Meanwhile, your code still crashes because you forgot a semicolon. The modern dev's power couple: enough computing strength to simulate the universe, primarily used to run npm install and watch YouTube tutorials on the side.

Why reinvent the wheel with AI when you can participate in the grand tradition of code inheritance? The sacred lineage of copy-pasting that traces back to the original Stack Overflow prophets. Sure, AI might generate something "original," but there's an undeniable elegance to using code that's been battle-tested through generations of theft. It's not plagiarism—it's vintage sourcing with historical significance. The circle of code life continues, and somewhere, an Indian tech specialist is silently nodding in approval while their solution powers half the internet.

Brutal honesty right here. Everyone's building "AI-powered apps" but let's be real—most of them are just fancy UI layers slapping a markup on OpenAI API calls. You're not doing machine learning, you're not training models, you're literally just buying tokens wholesale and reselling them retail with some prompt engineering sprinkled on top. It's like calling yourself a chef because you microwave Hot Pockets and put them on a nice plate. The term "wrapper" at least had some dignity to it, but "Token Resellers" cuts straight to the bone—you're basically a middleman in the AI supply chain. No shade though, margins are margins, and someone's gotta make those API calls look pretty.

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute audacity of junior devs thinking ChatGPT will solve all their problems! 💅 Senior devs are CACKLING like ancient wizards on their thrones watching these poor souls copy-paste AI gibberish that explodes in production. The sweet, sweet schadenfreude of watching someone learn the hard way that AI can't save you from understanding your own code. It's like watching a toddler try to microwave a fork - HORRIFYING yet you just can't look away!

Simple task: print numbers 1-10. Developer asks ChatGPT to do it. Instead of a basic loop, it delivers a recursive function. "Not bad," thinks the developer, and asks for optimization. ChatGPT's response? "Let's spawn threads for each recursive call!" The result is computational chaos—a CPU-melting, fan-screaming disaster that turns a 3-line solution into a parallel processing nightmare. It's like asking for a screwdriver and getting a nuclear-powered jackhammer with rocket boosters. Classic AI overengineering at its finest!
