The Accidental AI Apocalypse
The existential dread of leaving your IDE unattended for 5 minutes only to return and find your machine compiling Skynet.

Nothing quite like that moment when you realize your innocent little Git commit just wiped out three weeks of work across seventeen branches.

I Fear No API... Except Vulkan
The bravado of developers who claim they "fear no API" only to cower in terror at the sight of Vulkan is just *chef's kiss*. For the uninitiated, Vulkan is the low-level graphics API that makes even seasoned graphics programmers wake up in cold sweats. It's like saying "I'm great at assembling IKEA furniture" and then being handed the blueprints to build the actual IKEA store from scratch. The documentation alone is thicker than a computer science textbook, and the error messages might as well be written in ancient Sumerian. Meanwhile, OpenGL (referenced in the title) is like the friendly neighborhood graphics API that suddenly looks like a cuddly kitten in comparison.
