Vibesort: When Your Arrays Need That Special AI Touch

Vibesort: When Your Arrays Need That Special AI Touch
Finally, a sorting algorithm with the computational complexity of O($$). Just send your array to GPT, pay a few cents, and get it back sorted. Perfect for when you need your data arranged but can't be bothered to remember how quicksort works. The best part? If your array isn't sorted correctly, you can just claim it's because the AI "didn't understand the vibe" of your integers.

Fastest Way To Empty Your Wallet: The O(API) Sorting Algorithm

Fastest Way To Empty Your Wallet: The O(API) Sorting Algorithm
When your CS professor says "implement a sorting algorithm" but you've got an OpenAI API key and zero shame. This dev just created the world's most expensive sorting function by literally asking GPT-4 to be a sorting algorithm! Sure, it works—but imagine burning through API credits to sort [42, 3, 99, 7, 13] when a simple Array.sort() would do the trick. The true innovation here is maximizing both latency AND cost while solving a problem that was figured out decades ago. Congratulations, you've invented O(API) complexity—where the limiting factor is your credit card limit!

Just Make It Exist First, Automate The Horror Later

Just Make It Exist First, Automate The Horror Later
The two horsemen of software development: hardcoding endless if-statements for every possible value (top) versus generating those same if-statements with a script that alternates between True and False (bottom). That moment when you realize you can write code to write your terrible code for you. Work smarter not harder! Technical debt can now be automated at scale!

Comment Slasher: The Horror Movie Of Your Codebase

Comment Slasher: The Horror Movie Of Your Codebase
The AUDACITY of proper multi-line comments when single-line comment spam exists! 💅 Who has time for /* */ when you can just absolutely ASSAULT your code with a barrage of // slashes like you're trying to murder your future self's sanity? Nothing says "I'm a chaotic evil developer" quite like turning your codebase into a slash fiction novel. Single-line comment gang RISE UP! ✊

Commenting Always Works

Commenting Always Works
Ah yes, the ancient debugging technique known as "comment-driven development." Why waste precious brain cells understanding complex logic when you can just play code whack-a-mole? Nothing says "senior developer" like systematically commenting out random chunks of code until your application mysteriously springs back to life. The best part? You'll never know what you actually fixed, preserving that delightful sense of mystery for the next poor soul who inherits your codebase. It's not a bug—it's a feature that keeps future developers employed!

The Ultimate Debugging Strategy

The Ultimate Debugging Strategy
Ah yes, the pinnacle of modern software engineering: "Just dump your entire codebase into an AI and pray." Because nothing says "professional developer" like treating your source code like a desperate college essay you need fixed the night before it's due. Who needs code reviews, debugging skills, or understanding your own code when you can just throw the whole mess at an AI and let it sort through your spaghetti logic? Next up: "Submit your entire database as a tweet and wait for hackers to optimize it for you!"

The AI Hunger Games: Modern Coding Edition

The AI Hunger Games: Modern Coding Edition
Modern problems require modern solutions. Why spend hours coding when you can just make five AIs fight to the death for your solution? The ultimate AI gladiator arena where ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, and DeepSeek battle it out while you sit back like some tech emperor with your coffee. The real programming skill in 2024 isn't writing code—it's knowing which AI wrote the least garbage code. Efficiency at its finest... or rock-bottom laziness disguised as "leveraging cutting-edge tools." The cherry on top? Calling yourself a psychopath while secretly knowing every developer reading this has either done it or is opening five browser tabs right now.

The Art Of Comment Chaos

The Art Of Comment Chaos
When given the choice between proper multi-line comments /* */ and just spamming single-line comments // // // // , developers consistently choose chaos. It's not laziness—it's a lifestyle choice. The satisfaction of hammering that forward slash twice is just too powerful to resist. Plus, who needs structure when you can create a beautiful staircase of comment slashes that perfectly represents your declining code quality?

Git Ignore Everything

Git Ignore Everything
The pinnacle of version control laziness: just add * to your .gitignore and call it a day. Why carefully select which files to ignore when you can ignore everything and manually add each file you want? It's like burning down your house to avoid cleaning it, then rebuilding one room at a time. Genius time-saving strategy until you need to git add -f 500 files. Works every time, 0% of the time.

Modern Problems Require AI Solutions

Modern Problems Require AI Solutions
Ah yes, the pinnacle of modern debugging: when your code fails, just ask ChatGPT to fix it. Who needs Stack Overflow anymore when you can just wrap your entire codebase in a try-catch and let AI handle the rest? Next step: AI that writes the bugs for you so the other AI can fix them. The circle of life in silicon.

You Are Doomed

You Are Doomed
The sacred order of debugging has been disturbed. For eons, the ancient pact dictated that StackOverflow shall appear first in search results, offering salvation with copy-pastable solutions. Now GitHub shows up first, forcing you to actually read code and understand what's happening. Truly the darkest timeline. Next thing you know, they'll expect us to write documentation.

Good Idea, Bad Execution

Good Idea, Bad Execution
Ah yes, the modern debugging workflow: write broken code, catch the error, and let AI fix it for you. Because nothing says "senior developer" like outsourcing your bug fixes to ChatGPT. Next week: teaching AI to attend your standup meetings while you "work from hammock."
