He's Back: The Ghost Of Unhelpful Assistance

He's Back: The Ghost Of Unhelpful Assistance
The ghost of Stack Overflow past returns with a new disguise! Those AI coding assistants promising to revolutionize programming are just our old friend "unhelpful help" wearing a fancy sheet. You unmask it to reveal the same frustrating experience we've always had - intrusive popups asking if you need help writing a letter when you're clearly in the middle of debugging a critical production issue. The "Don't show me this tip again" checkbox might as well be connected to /dev/null for all the good it does. The more things change, the more they stay infuriatingly the same.

Copilot Has Ruined Code Reviewing For Me

Copilot Has Ruined Code Reviewing For Me
Remember when code reviews meant finding your coworker's spaghetti logic and passive-aggressive variable names? Now it's just you, questioning your existence while scrutinizing AI-generated code that's somehow both flawless and completely nonsensical. The modern code reviewer: frantically Googling obscure algorithms at 2 AM because you can't tell if GitHub Copilot is brilliant or hallucinating. "Is this O(log n) solution actually genius or am I being gaslit by a language model that learned to code from Stack Overflow?" Nothing grinds your gears quite like spending your precious human life debugging code written by a machine that doesn't even get tired or need coffee breaks.

Every Damntime

Every Damntime
Ah yes, the classic programmer paradox. You spend hours writing code, convinced it's broken because it's not producing the expected output. Then you realize with crushing disappointment that your code is working exactly as instructed - you just instructed it poorly. The computer isn't wrong; your logic was. It's like yelling at a calculator for correctly telling you that 2+2=4 when you meant to multiply.
