Modern Devs Be Like

6 days ago 216.5K views 1 shares

The accuracy is devastating. Modern developers have basically turned into professional copy-paste artists who panic the moment their WiFi drops. "Vibe coding" and "jr dev" are having the time of their lives in the shallow end, while "reading doc" is drowning in the background because nobody actually reads documentation anymore—why would you when Stack Overflow exists? But the real kicker? "Debugging without internet" is literally at the bottom of the ocean, dead and forgotten. Because let's be honest, trying to fix bugs without Google is like trying to perform surgery blindfolded. No Stack Overflow? No ChatGPT? No frantically searching "why is my code broken"? You might as well be coding in the Stone Age. The evolution is complete: we went from reading manuals to Googling everything to now just asking AI to write our code. Documentation? That's boomer energy. Debugging offline? That's a skill your ancestors had.

Modern Full Stack Developer

Oh honey, you thought "full-stack" meant knowing React AND Node.js? How adorably 2019 of you! Now it means having three AI assistants open in browser tabs like some kind of digital puppet master. Claude for the elegant code, ChatGPT for when you need something explained like you're five, and Perplexity for... honestly, just vibes at this point. The real tech stack is now: 40% prompting skills, 30% knowing which AI hallucinates less, 20% copy-pasting with confidence, and 10% pretending you totally knew that solution all along during code reviews. Frontend? Backend? Database optimization? Nah bestie, the only stack that matters is your AI subscription stack. Welcome to 2024, where "full-stack developer" just means you're full of tabs running LLMs who actually do the work while you sip coffee and feel like Tony Stark.

Modern Professional Programmer

You're trying to move a feature you barely understand into production, and your support system is basically a human pyramid of questionable reliability. Your senior is at the bottom (probably on their phone), Claude and Gemini are doing the heavy lifting in the middle, your cursor is there for moral support, and somehow a 12-year-old StackOverflow thread is the one actually keeping everything from collapsing. The best part? You're at the top pretending you know what you're doing while everyone below is desperately trying to keep you from falling. Modern development in a nutshell: standing on the shoulders of AI assistants, outdated forum posts, and one senior dev who's probably questioning their life choices. At least nobody's reading the documentation—that would be too easy.

Modern programming in a nutshell: you spend 4 hours crafting the perfect prompt to tell an AI what you want, then 2 hours actually coding. It's like having a really smart but incredibly literal intern who needs extremely detailed instructions. The fake Abraham Lincoln attribution is *chef's kiss* – because nothing says "inspirational tech thought leader" like slapping a historical figure's name on your LinkedIn hot take about AI-driven development. Pretty sure Honest Abe was more into splitting rails than splitting user stories into microservices. But real talk? The ratio is painfully accurate. Half your "coding time" with AI tools is just negotiating with ChatGPT or Copilot to generate something that doesn't look like it was written by a caffeinated rubber duck. "No, I said B2B SaaS, not B2C... no, not blockchain... please stop adding blockchain..."

Why Are You Calling Me Out Like That

We've all been there. You don't trust a single AI anymore, so you've basically turned coding into a democracy where ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, and DeepSeek all get a vote. Ask the same question to five different AI overlords, paste their responses into separate files, run them all, and pick whichever one doesn't explode. It's like speed dating but for code solutions. The "like a psychopath" part hits different because it's true. You're not debugging anymore—you're conducting a Hunger Games for algorithms. May the best AI-generated code win. The real kicker? This is somehow more efficient than reading documentation.

Oh, so we're just casually letting ChatGPT debug our code now? Just gonna throw our errors at the AI overlords and pray they send back working code? The sheer AUDACITY of this approach is both horrifying and... honestly kinda genius? Like, why spend hours understanding your own code when you can just ask ChatGPT "Fix for: [incomprehensible error message]" and call it a day? The future of programming is literally just vibing with AI and hoping for the best. Senior developers are SHAKING right now. Stack Overflow is in SHAMBLES. We've gone from copy-pasting solutions to automating the entire process of not knowing what we're doing. Revolutionary.

The Modern Web: A Precarious Tower Of Abstractions

The modern web stack depicted as a bizarre Jenga tower is painfully accurate. At the bottom, we have C developers creating dynamic arrays—the unsung heroes holding up the entire digital world while everyone else gets the glory. DNS and the Linux Foundation form the next layer, because who needs stable naming conventions anyway? AWS and unpaid open source devs make up the core infrastructure, with Cloudflare and AI tacked on as essential afterthoughts. Microsoft is off doing... whatever Microsoft does, probably rebranding something again. And somewhere in that precarious middle, you're just trying to build a simple web app while everything shifts beneath you. Meanwhile, Rust developers are floating away in their own perfect little universe, blissfully unaware that the rest of us are just trying to keep this monstrosity from collapsing.

Ah, the tech stack of modern civilization depicted as a Jenga tower that somehow hasn't collapsed yet. At the bottom, we've got ASML making the chips while C developers write dynamic arrays that would make any memory manager weep. The Linux Foundation holds up the entire internet while DNS occasionally decides whether your websites exist today. AWS and Cloudflare keep the lights on while unpaid open source developers silently prevent digital apocalypse. Meanwhile, AI sits there looking smug while Microsoft does... whatever it is Microsoft does these days. And there you are, somewhere in the middle of this precarious structure, just trying to make a web app that doesn't crash when someone types an emoji.

Circular Dependencies

The perfect visual representation of modern software development. The comic shows a recursive nightmare where dependencies contain dependencies that contain... you guessed it, more dependencies! Just like that time I pulled in a simple date formatting library and somehow ended up importing half the internet. The recursive image within itself is chef's kiss irony – the meme about dependency hell is itself caught in an infinite dependency loop. Next sprint I'm just gonna write everything in C like it's 1972.

Circular Dependencies: It's Turtles All The Way Down

The meme brilliantly captures the recursive nightmare of modern dependency management! It's a comic showing a tower of blocks labeled "every conversation about dependencies since 2020" that contains a smaller version of itself, which contains an even smaller version... it's dependencies all the way down! Just like when you npm install a simple package and suddenly your node_modules folder weighs more than a neutron star. The infinite recursion perfectly represents how we can't even discuss dependency hell without creating more dependency hell. It's the Inception movie of software engineering problems!

Basically How The Conversation Went

The eternal dance of AI ethics vs. corporate deadlines, beautifully captured in Simpsons format. Apu starts with the programmer's honest confession: "I use AI when Stack Overflow fails me." Then suddenly transforms into a philosophical AI ethicist discussing the "schism between ethicists and productivity analysts" and security concerns. But when Microsoft interrupts his ethical monologue with "Just say yes," Apu immediately abandons his principles faster than a junior dev abandoning documentation. The duality of modern development: privately acknowledging AI's ethical quagmires while publicly nodding enthusiastically when the deadline monster appears. Welcome to software development in 2024, where our principles are as flexible as our sprint commitments.

Every New Desktop App Dev Be Like

Nobody wants to touch those crusty desktop frameworks from the 90s anymore. Qt and WinForms? Hard pass. But wrap a glorified browser in a desktop shell and call it "cross-platform" and suddenly everyone's throwing confetti. "Look mom, I made a desktop app with 500MB of node_modules and it only takes 8 seconds to launch a hello world!" The absolute state of desktop development in 2023 - where your app is basically a website that somehow uses more RAM than Photoshop.
