The GitHub Distraction Vortex

6 hours ago 70.4K views 0 shares

The eternal GitHub rabbit hole strikes again! One minute you're fixing a bug, the next you're deep in some random issue thread from 2014 where two developers are arguing about tab spacing. Suddenly it's 4 hours later, you've learned three obscure programming languages, formed strong opinions about package managers you've never used, and that ticket you were supposed to complete? Still untouched. The dopamine hit from those spicy GitHub comment sections is just too powerful to resist.

Before Was At Least Cheaper

Oh, how the times have changed! In 2020, we were writing our own isOdd() function with a cascade of if statements like absolute savages. Fast forward to 2025, and we're just outsourcing our brain cells to OpenAI's API. Sure, the 2020 approach was inefficient and borderline ridiculous (just use num % 2 !== 0 , you monsters!), but at least it didn't cost $0.002 per API call. Progress? Maybe. But our wallets are definitely feeling the difference between "free but stupid" and "smart but expensive." The real tragedy is that somewhere out there, a junior dev is actually implementing this in production right now.

Humans Are Destined To Just Watch Ads

The dystopian future is here! Picture this: You're coding away, but instead of just watching your cursor blink while your AI agent generates code, you're forced to watch ads about "10 Weird Tricks to Fix Merge Conflicts" and "Hot Singles in localhost Area." It's the perfect business model - you stare blankly at ads for questionable crypto projects while your AI assistant does all the work and burns through tokens that YOU pay for with your attention. Next up: IDEs that make you solve CAPTCHAs every time you want to compile. "Select all images with semicolons that should actually be commas."

When you've been coding for years and forget that "googling" is considered cheating in academic settings. The spouse innocently admits to looking up syntax while the programmer husband has a mini existential crisis. Should he break it to her that Stack Overflow is basically every developer's external brain storage? Or let her believe we all memorize those obscure pointer-to-reference-to-function-pointer declarations? The real C++ cheat code is knowing exactly what to google.

Remember when we had to actually learn how to add two numbers? Now it's just OpenAI.chat("Sum of #{a} + #{b}") and call it a day. The terrifying part? This probably works better than half the arithmetic functions I've written in my 15-year career. Next they'll be asking ChatGPT to explain their own code to them during performance reviews. Evolution isn't always progress, folks.

Guy claims his AI assistant is writing 500k lines of code in 2 months while he casually rebuilds Shopify from scratch. Sure, and I'm running NASA from my garage with a Raspberry Pi. The only thing more unrealistic than his 5000 daily AI prompts is thinking Claude would struggle with anything. Next up: "My toaster built the next Facebook, but it burns the edges of my bread."

The existential crisis when VS Code asks if you trust yourself. Sure, I wrote this code, but do I trust it? Hell no. That's future me's problem when it inevitably breaks in production. The suspicious side-eye is exactly how I look at my own commit history - like finding a ticking time bomb I planted and forgot about.

That hollow feeling when you watch an AI model execute your former coding responsibilities with cold, algorithmic precision. There you sit, equal parts impressed and devastated, as your precious hand-crafted algorithms—once your pride and joy—are now just another task for the silicon overlord. The machine doesn't even have the decency to struggle with that tricky edge case that kept you up for three nights. Relationship status with your code: It's complicated.

The AUDACITY of the universe to both reward and humble you simultaneously! 💀 Left side: that GLORIOUS moment when your janky game actually gets accepted at GDQ (Games Done Quick, the prestigious speedrunning event). Right side: the soul-crushing realization that they've categorized your coding masterpiece under "AWFUL GAMES." Look at that face—it's the exact expression you make when your spaghetti code somehow passes all the tests but the senior dev still calls it "an abomination against computer science." The bar was on the FLOOR and we still managed to trip over it!

Reset The Counter: Microsoft's AI Adventure

Oh. My. GOD! The absolute DRAMA of it all! Microsoft proudly announces that 30% of their code is now AI-generated, and then BOOM! 💥 Git operations are failing EVERYWHERE! It's like watching a corporate horror movie unfold in real-time! The grim reaper couldn't have timed his entrance better! One minute they're bragging about AI writing their code, and the next minute their Git operations are having an existential crisis. Coincidence? I think NOT! This is what happens when you replace human developers with AI that learned to code by copying StackOverflow answers without reading the comments! Reset the counter indeed—we've gone exactly ZERO days without a Microsoft AI disaster. The skeleton is all of us watching our repositories crumble while Microsoft's PR team frantically tries to explain that AI definitely wasn't responsible for this catastrophe. Sure, Jan. 🙄

When you spend months crafting elegant code and optimizing game mechanics only to realize you now have to talk to actual humans about your creation. Nothing strikes fear into a developer's heart quite like having to explain why people should care about your 10,000 lines of meticulously crafted spaghetti code. The door represents the boundary between our comfortable development cave and the horrifying world of social media engagement metrics. I'd rather debug a race condition at 3 AM than create another "engaging" TikTok about our feature roadmap.
