Kids In 2045

Kids In 2045
Future playground insults just got upgraded from "Your mom" jokes to "Your mom codes in VibeCoder" — implying she uses some fictional 2045 programming language that's so outdated or cringe it's basically the equivalent of coding COBOL on punch cards while wearing socks with sandals. The real burn is that by 2045, we'll probably all be begging AI to fix our legacy React code while it silently judges our primitive syntax.

The Great Developer Downgrade

The Great Developer Downgrade
The evolution of developers has taken a tragic turn! Back in the glory days, programmers were depicted as muscular chads who wrote code without AI assistance or Stack Overflow, built entire games in Assembly language (absolute madlads), crafted mission-critical code for Moon landings, and fixed memory leaks by manually tweaking pointers. Fast forward to today, and we've devolved into bizarre creatures who can't center a div without Googling it for the 500th time, beg ChatGPT to fix basic syntax errors, get trapped in Vim like it's some kind of developer prison (":q! anyone?"), and somehow manage to create three new bugs while fixing just one. The brutal reality check hits hard. We went from programming gods to dependency-addicted gremlins who can't function without our precious tools. Progress?

From BASIC To Billions: The AI Evolution Nobody Saw Coming

From BASIC To Billions: The AI Evolution Nobody Saw Coming
Ah, the irony of modern tech! Here's a vintage book teaching "Artificial Intelligence in BASIC" from what looks like the 80s, sitting right next to "EXPERT SYSTEMS" on the bookshelf. Fast forward to 2023, and we're all losing our minds over ChatGPT and friends—billion-dollar AI systems built on Python, a language that would make your CPU cry if you asked it to calculate 2+2 in less than half a second. The cosmic joke is that we've gone from programming AI in languages designed to be "Beginner's All-purpose" to building world-changing models with a language where indentation errors can crash your entire system. Somewhere, this book's author is either laughing hysterically or weeping uncontrollably.

Mandatory Copilot Course: From Tech Mastery To Prompt Engineering

Mandatory Copilot Course: From Tech Mastery To Prompt Engineering
Oh how the mighty have fallen! 💀 Remember when companies expected you to master 17 different technologies, frameworks, and certifications in the time it takes to microwave a burrito? Now they're just like "Here's a course on how to ask an AI to do your job for you." The absolute AUDACITY of these companies thinking they can replace our blood, sweat, and Stack Overflow tears with "Hey Copilot, make me look competent." Next they'll be offering courses on "How to look busy while an LLM writes your entire codebase" and "Advanced techniques in taking credit for AI-generated solutions." The tech industry's evolution from "prove your worth through impossible certifications" to "just learn to type good prompts" is the greatest betrayal since they removed the headphone jack!

The Evolution Of Tech Rage: From Windows Search To AI Assistants

The Evolution Of Tech Rage: From Windows Search To AI Assistants
Oh. My. GOD. The eternal struggle between humans and technology continues! 👴 Remember when we used to scream at Windows search like deranged lunatics? You'd type "settings" and Windows would show you EVERYTHING except the actual settings! It's like asking for directions and being shown a catalog of exotic fish instead! 🐠 And now we've graduated to yelling at AI assistants that take SEVENTEEN YEARS to process "settings" while we dramatically age like fine wine (or moldy cheese). The circle of tech rage is complete! The only difference is now we can insult our search bars with more creative profanity! ✨PROGRESS✨

Today's Coders Choose The AI Shortcut

Today's Coders Choose The AI Shortcut
Remember when we spent hours implementing binary trees and sorting algorithms from scratch? Now there's a line of developers sprinting toward ChatGPT while the "Data Structures & Algorithms" door collects dust. Why bother with Big O notation when you can just prompt engineer your way to a solution? The irony is we still need those fundamentals to understand if ChatGPT's code will crash and burn in production. But hey, who has time for that when deadlines are yesterday?

A Fraction Of Our Power

A Fraction Of Our Power
The battle-hardened senior dev looking down at the Webpack and Vite logos like they're mere toys. After 15 years of manually configuring Apache servers at 3am and compiling C++ with makefiles written by Satan himself, watching junior "vibe coders" celebrate because their hot reload works is both adorable and irritating. Remember when we had to restart the entire server just to see if our CSS change worked? Kids these days will never know the character-building suffering of waiting 45 seconds for Internet Explorer 6 to crash after each debug attempt.

I Was There, Son. I Was There.

I Was There, Son. I Was There.
The ancient programmer is speaking! Back in the primordial soup of web development, we coded entire websites in Notepad or Vi like absolute savages. No syntax highlighting, no auto-complete, just pure ASCII and tears. Modern devs with their fancy VS Code and 47 extensions would probably faint at the sight of us manually typing every <table> tag for layout. Those were the days of real grit—when a single misplaced semicolon meant spending three hours debugging, and we LIKED it that way! Kids these days will never understand the character-building experience of FTPing files one by one while praying the connection holds.

Come On Get Modern

Come On Get Modern
Ah yes, the classic "it's 2025 but we're coding like it's 1989" scenario. Some professor is still forcing students to declare all variables at the top of the function like we're writing ANSI C89 standard code. Meanwhile, the variable name when_will_they_get_advanced = 0 is the silent scream of every CS student trapped in academic time capsules. The real joke is that while industry moved on decades ago, academia still thinks the C compiler from the Gulf War era is "cutting edge." Nothing prepares you for the real world like learning techniques that were outdated when dinosaurs roamed Silicon Valley.

Back When We Used To Be A Proper Civilization

Back When We Used To Be A Proper Civilization
Oh, the TRAUMA of modern OS interfaces! Look at that gorgeous Windows 7 start menu in all its organized, logical glory - before Microsoft decided we all needed to suffer through tiles, hidden menus, and updates that reorganize your entire digital existence without permission! Remember when you could actually FIND things without having to perform a sacred ritual and sacrifice your firstborn to Cortana? When settings weren't buried seventeen layers deep in a UI designed by someone who clearly hates humanity? Those transparent Aero effects were the PEAK of human achievement, and I will die on this hill! Modern Windows is just a dystopian hellscape where every feature you love disappears with each update. THE HORROR!

Expectation Vs. Reality: The GPU Evolution

Expectation Vs. Reality: The GPU Evolution
Remember when you could buy a graphics card without taking out a second mortgage? The "expectation" shows a humble GT440 from 9 years ago - probably cost you a reasonable $100 and could run Minecraft without setting your desk on fire. Fast forward to "reality" and we've got a monstrous GTX 1080Ti that costs more than some used cars and requires its own nuclear power plant. The best part? Both cards are equally impossible to find in stock. The crypto miners got the new ones, and your weird cousin who "builds gaming PCs" hoarded all the old ones.

Dark Mode: The Original Vintage Filter

Dark Mode: The Original Vintage Filter
Microsoft invented dark mode before it was cool—they just called it "Windows 98." While the rest of us were squinting at blinding white interfaces, Windows veterans were bathing in that sweet gray-on-darker-gray aesthetic since the Clinton administration. Fast forward to Windows 11 with its sleek blues and rounded corners looking at 98 like "who's your daddy?" The real irony? We spent decades escaping that "dated" look only to circle back and call it "ergonomic" and "eye-friendly." Congrats hipsters, you've reinvented floppy disks and dial-up modems are probably next.
