Seniors Memes

Ah yes, the mythical creature known as "The Senior Who Codes Without ChatGPT" – a tale passed down through generations of developers around the campfire. The juniors sit there in absolute awe, mouths agape, as if hearing about a programmer who remembers how to center a div without Stack Overflow or can write a recursive function without asking an AI to debug it. It's basically the programming equivalent of "back in my day, we walked uphill both ways in the snow" except it's "back in 2021, we actually had to understand our own code."

The generational divide in tech has never been more savage! Old-timer dev with his magnificent beard is schooling these youngsters about the ancient art of coding without AI assistance. “ChatGPT? When I was your age I had to write my own code” hits different in 2024 when half of us are just prompt engineers now. It's like bragging about churning your own butter or hunting woolly mammoths. The irony? That senior probably copy-pasted from StackOverflow anyway. The tech cycle continues—today's juniors will someday lecture about the primitive days of having to type prompts instead of just thinking them.
