The naval officer delivers a devastating code review while Captain Jack Sparrow responds with the programmer's ultimate defense mechanism: "But it does run." Nothing captures the essence of desperate programming quite like defending your monstrosity of spaghetti code that somehow—against all laws of computer science—actually executes. Sure, it might have the structural integrity of a house of cards in a hurricane, but hey, green checkmarks all around! That moment when your technical debt is visible from space, but you're still clinging to the bare minimum requirement of "it works." This is why we can't have nice things in production.

Stack Overflow questions are dropping faster than a production database after someone ran a migration without a backup. The graph shows a steady decline from peak toxicity around 2014 to near-ghost-town levels in 2024. Turns out when you build an AI that actually helps instead of marking everything as duplicate and closing questions within 30 seconds, people stop needing the digital equivalent of asking directions from a New Yorker. ChatGPT doesn't tell you your question is "off-topic" or that you should "just Google it" before providing a condescending answer. The irony? Stack Overflow spent years training developers that asking questions is shameful. Now those same developers trained an AI on Stack Overflow's data, and the AI is nicer than the community ever was. Full circle.
