The Manual Deployment "Hack"
The ultimate bait-and-switch! First declares "CI/CD is a scam" to trigger every DevOps engineer on LinkedIn, then proceeds to describe... the most basic manual deployment process imaginable. What he's describing is literally the antithesis of CI/CD - spinning up EC2 instances and manually SSHing to deploy code. That's like saying "electric cars are a scam" and then revealing your amazing alternative is... walking. The cherry on top is the company name "Unemployed.ai" and the self-aware closing line. Pro tip: following this "advice" is indeed the fastest path to joining the unemployment statistics!

How People Are Actually Using Agentic AI
The tech industry in a single image. Massive crowds fighting to post LinkedIn updates about how they're "leveraging agentic AI solutions" while VCs throw money at anyone who mentions the buzzword. Meanwhile, a handful of folks actually discuss job displacement risks, and even fewer build anything useful. And that lonely stick figure trying to generate actual value? That's the junior dev who just wanted to automate their unit tests but got pulled into an "AI transformation initiative." The hype-to-value ratio remains gloriously consistent across every tech wave I've survived since the dot-com bubble.

The Three-Hour SQL Master Plan
Ah yes, the classic tech industry pipeline: 2+ years of actual experience → underpaid → desperate → "become an expert in 3 hours" workshop. Nothing says legitimate career advancement like a LinkedIn post promising to transform you from an experienced but underpaid SQL developer into an "AI in SQL" expert faster than it takes to restore a corrupted database. For reference, 8 LPA (Lakhs Per Annum) is roughly $10K USD, so this guru is essentially targeting professionals who know they're worth more but haven't figured out how to escape the salary trap. The irony is that anyone with actual SQL experience would immediately recognize this query returns nothing but empty promises.

Vibez Only: Where Technical Skills Meet Good Energy
Ah, the legendary "Junior Vibe Coder" position! Because apparently writing code isn't enough anymore—you need to pass the vibe check too. Companies out here looking for developers who can both reverse a binary tree AND maintain immaculate vibes during a production outage at 3 AM. The best part? That one-week review time. Translation: "We'll ghost you for 7 days while we find someone with better vibes who'll work for less money." Remember when job titles made sense? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

Resume-Driven Development: The Light Bulb Edition
The classic resume inflation algorithm at work! What's funnier than watching someone transform the mundane task of screwing in a light bulb into what sounds like they single-handedly revolutionized NASA's illumination infrastructure. The deployment terminology is particularly chef's-kiss - as if changing a bulb involved CI/CD pipelines and a Kubernetes cluster. And let's appreciate the "zero cost overruns" metric... because spending $2 on a light bulb is definitely within budget parameters. Next time you update your LinkedIn, remember: you didn't just fix a bug - you "architected and implemented a mission-critical exception handling framework with 100% resolution rate."

Sweet Catharsis Of Power
That glorious moment of power when a LinkedIn recruiter messages you about an "exciting opportunity" while you're comfortably employed. Suddenly you're no longer the desperate peasant begging for scraps—you're aristocracy, looking down your powdered nose at their "competitive salary" and "ping pong tables." The tables have turned, and now you get to ghost them after a single conversation. Revolutionary!

The AI Doomsday Prophet's LinkedIn Strategy
The sudden realization when you see those fear-mongering LinkedIn posts about AI replacing software engineers... only to discover they're written by some random "AI startup founder" with suspicious credentials and a clear product to sell. The wide-eyed cat perfectly captures that moment of "Wait a minute... is this just marketing disguised as industry insight?" Classic tech ecosystem manipulation – first create the panic, then conveniently offer the solution. The digital equivalent of a medieval snake oil merchant, just with more buzzwords and a Series A funding round.

Replace "AI" With "Cocaine" In Tech Posts
Oh god, this is brilliant. Just imagine all those LinkedIn posts now: "Our new cocaine-powered chatbot will revolutionize customer service!" or "Top 10 ways cocaine will disrupt your industry!" The tech hype cycle and the actual cocaine cycle have the same phases: initial euphoria, inflated expectations, crushing disappointment, and somehow still costing you all your money. The only difference is one crashes after 20 minutes and the other after your next funding round.

Are You One Of Those?
LinkedIn has become the wild west of tech inspiration porn. One side: self-proclaimed "thought leaders" posting their daily shower epiphanies. The other side: AI-generated wisdom complete with random butterfly emojis and strategic typos for authenticity. Meanwhile, actual engineers are scrolling through this circus while debugging production issues, wondering if they missed the memo on butterfly emojis being the secret to 10x productivity.

POV: You Just Graduated In CS
Ah, the classic LinkedIn resume time-travel paradox! This CS grad with a 4.3 GPA from Columbia somehow managed to intern at NASA, OpenAI, and Google before graduating, then immediately pivoted to their dream career... flipping burgers at McDonald's in May 2025 (which hasn't even happened yet). The chronological whiplash is giving me serious temporal complexity issues. It's like they implemented a reverse-sorted linked list of career achievements where Big O notation stands for "Order of fries, please." This resume perfectly captures that special moment when your algorithm for career progression throws an unexpected exception.

The LinkedIn Tech Stack Pokédex Challenge
The ultimate tech resume flex: listing every framework, library, and tool you've ever glanced at for 0.5 seconds. That massive word salad of technologies—from Python to TensorFlow to "purrr"—is peak developer peacocking. The punchline is genius though. Asking recruiters to identify which ones are Pokémon is the perfect trap since several of these actually sound like Pokémon names (looking at you, "sparklyR" and "vulpix"—and yes, Vulpix is actually a fire-type Pokémon). It's the perfect litmus test for technical recruiters who claim to understand what you do but can't tell a data visualization library from something that shoots thunderbolts.

The Groovy Paradox
The existential crisis of modern job hunting. LinkedIn asks if you know Groovy, and you're left wondering if they mean the actual JVM language or if you're just supposed to have a positive attitude. Either way, clicking "Yes" feels like a gamble that'll haunt your next technical interview. The recruiter probably doesn't know either.
