Future Memes

Visual Studio Code from the future is apparently just an AI delivery system now. The "many updates" in the March 2025 release can be summarized as: AI, AI, AI, AI, AI, and... wait for it... AI! Microsoft's subtle approach to feature diversity is truly inspiring. Why bother with performance improvements, bug fixes, or new developer tools when you can just repeat "AI" six times and call it a day? Coming in version 2.0: Your code now writes itself while simultaneously reporting everything you do to Skynet. But hey, at least it autocompletes your semicolons correctly!

The dystopian nightmare has arrived! Behold the new job title of our generation: "Prompt Engineer" – that poor soul desperately begging an AI to spit out valid JSON without hallucinating random garbage. Look at those tears! That's the face of someone who spent 6 years getting a Computer Science degree only to end up writing "bro please" and "I'm begging you" in their prompts. Their entire career now hinges on whether ChatGPT wakes up feeling cooperative or chaotic that day. We've gone from writing code to writing prayers to the AI gods! The ultimate career downgrade – from software developer to AI therapist/beggar.

The inevitable hipster-ification of web development has arrived. Just like artisanal coffee shops charging $9 for "hand-poured" water, we'll soon have developers selling "organic, handwritten, non-AI websites" at premium prices. Next they'll be telling us their HTML is free-range and their CSS was harvested during a full moon. Can't wait for the "small-batch, locally-sourced JavaScript" trend to hit.
