Rapid Prototyping With AI

When you tell the client your AI-powered prototype is "almost done," they see a beautiful Old West town ready for action. Meanwhile, you're looking at a construction site held together by scaffolding, duct tape, and prayers to the TypeScript gods. Sure, the facade looks impressive from the street view, but behind the scenes? It's all exposed beams, missing walls, and architectural decisions that would make any code reviewer weep. That's AI-generated code for you—looks production-ready in the demo, but the moment you peek under the hood, you realize you're basically debugging a half-finished movie set.

Its Just Scaffolding

This meme perfectly captures that moment of pure dread when your "it's just scaffolding" PR turns into a code apocalypse. You confidently hand over your pull request to the senior engineer, only for them to discover you've somehow managed to change 741 files with nearly 100,000 additions and 44,000 deletions. That look of absolute horror on the senior dev's face is worth a thousand compiler errors! Next time maybe try explaining that you were "refactoring the architecture" instead of "accidentally committing the entire node_modules folder." The scaffolding excuse works about as well as "the dog ate my deployment keys."
