Stackoverflow dependency Memes

The AUDACITY of my brain to think I can build a full-stack AI-powered blockchain app with real-time everything when I can barely remember how to center a div! 💀 The gap between my grandiose vision and my actual knowledge is so vast you could fit the entire npm registry in it. Meanwhile, I'm over here Googling "how to exit vim" for the 47th time while my project plan looks like it was written by a tech CEO during a fever dream.

The glorious fall of programmer dignity, visualized in perfect clarity. Once upon a time, developers were digital demigods who wrote code without AI crutches, built entire games in Assembly (because apparently suffering builds character), crafted code that literally sent humans to the moon, and performed memory management wizardry by hand. Fast forward to today's pathetic reality: developers frantically Googling how to center a div (still an unsolved mystery of computer science), begging ChatGPT to fix basic syntax errors, getting permanently trapped in Vim like it's some kind of developer Hotel California, and introducing three new bugs while fixing one—a net negative contribution to humanity. The evolution from muscle-bound coding titans to helpless brain-worms perfectly captures how we've traded actual knowledge for dependency on tools. Progress!

Ah, the classic bait-and-switch of programming education! Kids think they're entering a magical world of creativity with drag-and-drop blocks and cute animations, only to discover their future involves staring at terminal windows for hours debugging merge conflicts. It's like expecting to become a chef by playing cooking games, then discovering real kitchens involve mostly dishwashing and knife sharpening. The gap between Scratch/educational programming and "rm -rf node_modules && npm install" is the greatest plot twist in tech careers.
