Priorities Memes

Use AI Wisely

9 days ago 66.2K views 0 shares

Behold, the evolution of AI priorities! First panel: "AI coding for me so I can do my laundry" gets a hard pass. Second panel: "AI doing my laundry so I can code" receives enthusiastic approval. It's the perfect inversion of expectations. Instead of using cutting-edge technology to avoid the noble pursuit of programming, true developers want AI to handle mundane chores so they can spend more time doing what they actually love - staring at a screen wondering why that semicolon is breaking everything. The future isn't AI replacing programmers; it's AI folding your underwear while you debug in peace. Now THAT'S progress.

Priorities.exe Has Stopped Working

The absolute state of our priorities. Can't be bothered to work for half an hour, but suddenly have the focus of a zen master when it comes to grinding a game for 8 hours straight just to get some cosmetic item that literally nobody else will notice. The same energy as spending 5 hours automating a 10-minute task or debugging that one weird CSS issue instead of finishing the actual feature. And we wonder why our project deadlines always seem so... flexible.

I'm A "Latest BIOS Version" Addict

When your neighbor needs simple printer help but you're in the middle of a critical BIOS update—priorities, right? That moment when you're deep in firmware flashing territory, sweating bullets because one power outage means a bricked motherboard, and someone wants you to reconnect their printer to WiFi. Sorry neighbor, I'm currently performing open-heart surgery on my computer's soul. Your print job can wait until I've finished living dangerously.

Chaotic Magic Of Game Development

Ah, the beautiful irony of game development priorities. Summoning a lava demon from the depths of hell? "Yeah, we'll just use the particle system and some shaders, no biggie." But adding a simple scarf that doesn't clip through the character model? That's when developers start questioning their career choices. The truth is that seemingly simple features often hide nightmarish complexity. That scarf needs physics, collision detection, and fabric simulation that won't melt your GPU. Meanwhile, the flashy demon just needs to look cool for 5 seconds before disappearing. After 15 years in the industry, I've learned that estimating difficulty based on how impressive something looks is a rookie mistake. The most mundane features will be the ones that break your spirit.

Todo: Help Save Humanity And Marry The Tall Girl

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of developers to put "save humanity" and "marry tall girl" on the SAME TODO list! 💀 Like honey, you can't even remember to remove those console.log() statements before pushing to production, but sure, SAVING THE ENTIRE HUMAN RACE is just another ticket in your Jira board. Right next to your anime-inspired romantic fantasies! The true tragedy is that both tasks will sit there for eternity, getting pushed to "next sprint" until the heat death of the universe. Just like that refactoring task from 2019. YOU KNOW THE ONE.

The $10,000 Budget Gaming Setup Paradox

Ah yes, the classic "budget gaming PC" paradox. Spend $9,950 on a shiny new RTX GPU, then house it in what appears to be a case salvaged from the Chernobyl exclusion zone. Because priorities! Nothing says "I understand resource allocation" like putting a Formula 1 engine in a rusted-out 1987 Toyota Corolla. The dust alone in that case is probably older than half the games in your Steam library that you'll never play. But hey, at least you can run Crysis at 240fps while slowly developing a respiratory disease from the airborne archaeological dig happening inside your tower.

Premium Cooling For Budget CPUs

When your budget screams in agony because you just spent $120 on premium Noctua fans while running a $90 CPU. The sideways glance is that moment of cognitive dissonance when you realize your cooling system costs more than the thing it's actually cooling. It's like buying a $500 refrigerator to store a $5 sandwich. But hey, those sweet, sweet RPMs and that signature brown color are totally worth eating ramen for a month.

Fixing Readme Typos While Production Burns

Code reviewers frantically protecting the codebase from "obvious bugs that will take down prod" while completely ignoring the harmless typo in a comment that someone pointed out. Priorities, right? The tiger (production-breaking bug) is literally stalking in the background while everyone's laser-focused on the innocent bunny (typo). Meanwhile, the actual critical issue is about to pounce and destroy everything. Classic engineering team dynamics where we'll spend 45 minutes debating variable naming conventions while the server is actively on fire.

Grammar Pain vs Code Gain

Grammar corrections feel like getting shot in the face with a laser gun. Code corrections? That's just free QA. Developers would rather have their entire codebase criticized than deal with someone pointing out they used "your" instead of "you're" in the documentation. Priorities, I guess.

Ah, the classic programmer prioritization algorithm. John has actual work to do but his brain has decided that now is the perfect time to start that revolutionary npm package that will surely change the world. Nothing fuels productivity quite like the crushing weight of looming deadlines. The side project will be abandoned in exactly 2.7 days, right after he creates the GitHub repo and writes half a README.

We Were So Close To Greatness

Ah, the eternal GPU tragedy. Just when you've finally scraped together enough cash for that sweet RTX 4090 after months of ramen dinners and skipping social events, reality hits you with a financial pothole. The universe has a special algorithm that detects when your bank account has exactly enough for a gaming upgrade, and immediately triggers an essential but boring expense. Four new tires? Might as well be setting fire to a pile of cash that could've been powering Cyberpunk at 120fps with ray tracing. The frog's formal attire really sells the gravity of this financial announcement. It's not just bad news—it's distinguished bad news.

What AI Could Do vs. What Humans Actually Use It For

The noble aspirations of AI research versus the grim reality of where computational power actually goes. On the left, we have AI detecting breast cancer 5 years before it develops—potentially saving countless lives. On the right, some poor GPU is being absolutely tortured to render a cow at 15 FPS in what appears to be the world's jankiest video game, complete with a rage-filled gamer screaming about "fake frames." It's the perfect encapsulation of humanity's priorities: we build supercomputers that could solve humanity's greatest challenges, then immediately use them to make slightly better cow animations. The bottom corner showing all those graphics settings (RTX, DLSS, etc.) is just the chef's kiss of overkill for whatever that monstrosity is supposed to be.
