AI Migrating SVG Icons To A Different Icon Set

When you ask AI to migrate your icon library and it interprets "PersonAdd" as literally drawing a person and then adding... something? The icon looks like someone tried to describe what "adding a person" means to an alien who's never seen a human before. It's got a circle for a head and what appears to be a torso with arms doing the "I give up" shrug. The AI took the semantic meaning way too literally instead of just mapping the icon to its equivalent in the new set. Classic case of AI being confidently wrong – it technically created an icon that represents adding a person, just not in any way that's actually usable in a UI. Hope you weren't planning on shipping that to production anytime soon!

The CSS Holy War

Frontend devs rejecting Tailwind's utility-first approach only to embrace the chaos of a 10,000-line CSS file that not even its creator understands anymore. Nothing says "I'm a serious developer" like spending three hours hunting down which selector is overriding your button styles. The irony? They'll still complain about "div soup" while their stylesheet resembles the complete works of Shakespeare – if Shakespeare had a nervous breakdown and typed with his elbows.
