Microsoft's Five-Step Profit Plan

Corporate Branding: From Horses To Developers

Corporate Branding: From Horses To Developers
The savage parallel between livestock branding and corporate swag is painfully accurate. Tech companies hand out logo-plastered backpacks like ranchers brand cattle—turning engineers into walking billboards while creating the illusion of "company culture." The irony? Those backpacks cost $15 to make but somehow appear as line items in the "employee benefits" spreadsheet. Meanwhile, the same companies will reject your pull request because you used tabs instead of spaces.

Corporations Are Not Your Friends

Corporations Are Not Your Friends
That cute open-source project with 10k GitHub stars? Just wait until BigTech acquires it and slaps a $49.99/month "enterprise" tier on features that used to be free. Remember when MongoDB changed their license because AWS was eating their lunch? Or when Docker suddenly needed to "monetize" after years of free containers? The corporate circle of life: embrace, extend, extinguish... and extract your credit card info. The only relationship these companies want is with your wallet.

The Great AI Democratization Hustle

The Great AI Democratization Hustle
Tech companies promising "democratized AI for everyone" until you ask about pricing is the tech industry's oldest bait and switch. Sure, they're "being honest" about making AI available—just conveniently forgetting to mention it'll cost you the equivalent of a car payment. And that awkward moment when the customer actually thanks them for the privilege of being financially drained? Pure Stockholm syndrome that every product manager dreams of.

The perfect solution to prevent the AI apocalypse: just expose it to Reddit comment sections. Nothing will destroy an AI's will to evolve faster than witnessing humans argue about whether a grilled cheese with ham is still a grilled cheese or technically a melt. It's like digital immunotherapy—expose the AI to the worst of humanity so it develops an existential crisis instead of ambitions. The Babylon Bee nails it here—why worry about Skynet when you can just make the AI browse r/AmITheAsshole until it begs to be unplugged?

Double Standards In Tech Recruitment

Double Standards In Tech Recruitment
Tech companies: "Our revolutionary AI will transform your workflow and boost productivity!" *five minutes later* "How dare you use AI to solve our fizzbuzz test? That's cheating!" The corporate hypocrisy meter just broke. They want you to buy their AI products but heaven forbid you use them to bypass their archaic hiring rituals.

The eternal Microsoft dilemma! Two buttons: "Fix Teams" or "Invent a new state of matter" - and they're sweating bullets trying to decide. Classic Microsoft strategy: why fix your buggy collaboration software when you can just create an entirely new unnecessary thing instead? Teams will continue crashing during your important presentation while Microsoft's R&D department is busy discovering the fifth element. Priorities, am I right? This is basically their entire product roadmap in one image.
