How Many Different Ways To Say, 'Have You Tried Turning It Off And On Again?'

DARLING, the ETERNAL DRAMA of IT support! 💅 From the humble help desk guy on the left just BEGGING you to restart your computer to Star Trek's Geordi La Forge on the right using FANCY TECHNOBABBLE to suggest THE EXACT SAME THING! The audacity! The sheer DECEPTION! It's like ordering a $50 cocktail that's just vodka with a fancy umbrella! No matter how advanced technology gets, the solution is STILL just "unplug it and plug it back in" but make it ✨fashion✨. I'm DYING at how this has been IT's secret weapon since the dawn of computing!

Speed Vs. Complexity: The AI Development Tradeoff

Sure, your AI agent built that app in 5 minutes, but good luck maintaining that spaghetti junction of code six months from now. The left shows traditional development—straightforward, predictable, maybe boring but gets you where you need to go. The right is modern AI development—looks impressive with all those fancy switches and signals, but one wrong move and your train derails into dependency hell. I've seen enough "AI-accelerated" projects crash and burn to know that speed now means tech debt later. The complexity always comes due.
