LinkedIn AI prophets are at it again, posting their daily dose of "AI will replace everyone" fear-mongering. But then you peek at their profile and surprise—it's just another "AI startup founder" who probably pivoted from NFTs last month. The concerned cat face captures that exact moment of realization: the person warning you about AI taking your job is literally just someone trying to sell you AI courses or their half-baked SaaS product. Nothing says credibility like doom-scrolling through apocalyptic predictions from someone whose entire business model depends on you believing them.

Everything Is Dead

Tech YouTubers discovered that declaring everything "dead" gets more views than actual content. Git is dead. REST APIs are dead. Docker is dead. JWT is dead. RAG is dead. Next week: "Oxygen is Dead - Why Developers Should Stop Breathing." The best part? Each video is 20-40 minutes long. Because nothing says "this technology is obsolete" like spending half an hour explaining why you still need to know it. The downward trending graphs in the thumbnails really seal the deal though. Very reassuring for the junior dev who just spent three months learning Docker. Meanwhile, 99% of production systems are still running on these "dead" technologies, blissfully unaware they're supposed to be extinct. Someone should tell them.
