Is This AI? No, It's Just An If-Then-Else
The butterfly meme has evolved into the perfect representation of our current tech landscape. Non-technical executives pointing at literally any software and declaring "IS THIS AI?" while developers frantically try to explain that it's just a simple if-then-else statement they wrote in 15 minutes. The irony is delicious—we've been using conditional logic since the dawn of programming, but suddenly everything with decision-making capabilities gets the "AI" label slapped on it. Marketing departments worldwide just nodded in silent agreement.

CEO's 1000 AI Agents vs CTO's Silent Scream
The CEO's face screams "I just made this up for investors" while the CTO's expression is the universal look of someone who knows they'll be debugging a single if-statement with an "AI" label slapped on it at 2AM. Nothing says "enterprise AI solution" like a Python script that occasionally guesses correctly. The CTO's silence speaks volumes—it's the sound of a resume being updated in real-time.

The Great AI Gold Rush Of 2025
Nothing like the sweet smell of career arbitrage in the morning. Just slap "AI" on your LinkedIn profile and watch your market value triple while recruiters trip over themselves to throw gold bars at you. Meanwhile, you're still running the same SQL queries and data pipelines you were last week, but now you're an "AI visionary" commanding a small fortune. The industry's collective amnesia about what skills actually matter is the gift that keeps on giving. Capitalism at its finest, folks.

We Solved X Using AI
Ah yes, the "innovative" AI startup landscape. Buzz Lightyear proudly announcing a "totally unique LLM use case" while the shelves below reveal the harsh truth: it's just ChatGPT API with a wrapper. Like claiming you invented the sandwich when all you did was buy bread from the store and put your logo on the packaging. The Silicon Valley special - repackaging someone else's technology and calling it revolutionary. The digital equivalent of putting racing stripes on a Honda Civic and calling it a Ferrari.

Soap Opera: Legacy Code Gets An AI Makeover
Ah yes, the revolutionary AI integration strategy: squirting a tiny bit of machine learning onto a bar of legacy code and calling it "innovation." That soap dispenser is working exactly as intended – technically dispensing something, but completely missing the point. Just like how adding a chatbot that can only say "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" somehow justifies a 20% price increase. Investors impressed, users unimpressed, developers wondering if they should update their resume.

Hard To Convince
The classic "I know better than the buzzwords" conversation that happens in every tech company these days. You're just trying to be the voice of reason suggesting a simple algorithmic solution, but management's been reading too many LinkedIn posts about AI revolutionizing everything. That "how dare you?" reaction is what happens when you threaten someone's chance to put "AI-powered solution" on their quarterly achievements slide. Ten years in the industry and I've learned questioning the AI hype is basically career suicide at this point.

My Clients Don't Code

My Clients Don't Code
The classic dad-meets-boyfriend scenario gets a programming twist. When asked what he uses "on the client," this smooth operator decides to flex with "I'm a vibe coder, and my clients don't code" – possibly the worst answer in the history of developer pickup lines. It's that special blend of buzzword nonsense and zero technical substance that makes every senior developer's soul leave their body. The only appropriate response? "GET OUT OF MY HOUSE." And honestly, fair enough. Anyone who unironically calls themselves a "vibe coder" deserves to be escorted off the premises immediately.

Java's AI Rebrand: Now With Extra Buzzwords!

Java's AI Rebrand: Now With Extra Buzzwords!
The classic Java rebrand joke strikes again! Someone innocently asks if Java 25 has AI capabilities that let it program itself, and the reply is pure gold. "Yes, Java 25 is actually similar to Java 8 in that it will once again do a rebrand. It is now called jAIva 25 and introduces a new VM called jVLLMLM." The punchline brilliantly mocks Java's history of rebranding (remember the Oracle acquisition drama?) while simultaneously poking fun at the AI hype with that ridiculous VM name - jVLLMLM is basically jamming together "JVM" with "LLM" (Large Language Model) into an unpronounceable tech soup that would make any product manager swoon. The perfect intersection of programming language jokes and AI buzzword satire!

How People Are Actually Using Agentic AI

How People Are Actually Using Agentic AI
The tech industry in a single image. Massive crowds fighting to post LinkedIn updates about how they're "leveraging agentic AI solutions" while VCs throw money at anyone who mentions the buzzword. Meanwhile, a handful of folks actually discuss job displacement risks, and even fewer build anything useful. And that lonely stick figure trying to generate actual value? That's the junior dev who just wanted to automate their unit tests but got pulled into an "AI transformation initiative." The hype-to-value ratio remains gloriously consistent across every tech wave I've survived since the dot-com bubble.

Resume-Driven Development: The Light Bulb Edition
The classic resume inflation algorithm at work! What's funnier than watching someone transform the mundane task of screwing in a light bulb into what sounds like they single-handedly revolutionized NASA's illumination infrastructure. The deployment terminology is particularly chef's-kiss - as if changing a bulb involved CI/CD pipelines and a Kubernetes cluster. And let's appreciate the "zero cost overruns" metric... because spending $2 on a light bulb is definitely within budget parameters. Next time you update your LinkedIn, remember: you didn't just fix a bug - you "architected and implemented a mission-critical exception handling framework with 100% resolution rate."

The Emperor's New Microservices
SWEET MOTHER OF MONOLITHS! Everyone's raving about MCP (Microservice Communication Protocols) like it's the second coming of programming Jesus, but then you peek under the hood and—GASP!—it's just regular server apps with fancy communication protocols wearing a trench coat! 😱 The AUDACITY of these buzzwords parading around like they're revolutionary when they're basically just the same old tech with sparkly new marketing! It's like putting lipstick on a REST API and calling it a supermodel! The wide-eyed horror on that cat's face is LITERALLY MY SOUL every time someone tries to convince me their "revolutionary architecture" isn't just the same old client-server relationship with extra steps!

Tiny Founder, Big Threats
The classic startup founder strategy: drop buzzwords like "AI" and "ML" while looking suspiciously like a baby in a tuxedo threatening investors. Nothing says "I'm totally qualified to run a tech company" like combining artificial intelligence jargon with mild extortion! The tiny suit really sells the "I've definitely completed multiple successful exits" vibe. VC funding secured in 3... 2... 1...
