Front-End Wizard: Smartwatch Edition

When your codebase looks like a conspiracy theorist's wall but somehow still works in production. Now some AI tool wants to "fix" it? Sure, buddy. That dependency graph is held together by Stack Overflow answers from 2013 and the collective prayers of three generations of developers. But hey, if you want to pay for an "enterprise agent" to untangle that beautiful disaster, go ahead. It's your funeral when it deletes that one undocumented function that's secretly keeping the entire billing system alive.

The perfect illustration of what happens when you tell someone you're a software developer. First panel: normal conversation about back pain. Second panel: the moment you mention "software development" and suddenly the other person transforms into a shy, awkward mess. That hunched silhouette in panel three is the universal developer posture™ - the evolutionary result of 10 hours daily of staring at Stack Overflow errors. Your spine gradually morphs into a question mark, much like your code comments. The real joke? We spend thousands on ergonomic chairs while maintaining the posture of a cave troll examining a particularly interesting pebble.

Company eventually dies and you're almost 30 still coding angular. js 2:00 PM 2022-08-21 Twitter Web App 166 Retweets 37 Quote Tweets 2,326 Likes 17 1 ProdrammerHumor.io

The industry keeps inventing new terms to sell the same old drag-and-drop builders. First it was "low-code/no-code" platforms promising to make developers obsolete. Now it's "vibe code" - same cheap knockoff but with a trendy rebrand. It's like putting a fedora on a WYSIWYG editor and calling it innovative. Meanwhile, actual developers are sitting back watching management fall for buzzwords that'll be abandoned faster than a Git repository after the startup funding dries up.
