Tech satire Memes

The grumpy tech veteran's manifesto has arrived! This is basically what happens when someone who's written actual production code for a decade watches the latest batch of "I built a startup with no-code tools and vibes" TikToks. The screenshots are pure gold - one poor soul storing passwords in a CSV file (security professionals just felt a disturbance in the force), while another "SaaS founder" is shocked that people are actually using their API in ways they didn't anticipate. Revolutionary! And that emoji-based developer bio at the bottom? Chef's kiss. Nothing says "I definitely know what I'm doing" like introducing yourself with three random tech logos instead of, you know, actual skills. Ten years ago we called these people "script kiddies." Now they're "founders" with 50K Twitter followers explaining why your engineering team is doing it wrong.

Ah, "Vibe Coding" – where the only requirement is vibes and absolutely zero coding knowledge. Started as industry satire, now it's an actual 4-week course with a fancy instructor in a green suit promising to make you feel good about not understanding a single line of code. This is like offering "Vibe Surgery" where you just hold a scalpel and manifest healing energy. Next up: "Vibe Engineering" – build bridges with positive affirmations and Instagram filters. The tech industry has officially completed its transformation from "we need skilled engineers" to "just bring your authentic self and we'll figure out how to deploy that to production."

Ah, the legendary GitHub pull request to rewrite Twitter in COBOL! For the uninitiated, COBOL is a programming language from the 1950s that's still running critical banking systems and government infrastructure, but about as suited for modern social media as a steam engine is for space travel. The satirical PR suggestion is pure comedy gold—imagine handling Twitter's real-time feeds and media processing with a language designed when computers took up entire rooms and "memory" meant physical punch cards! The 17 thumbs-up reactions show there are plenty of developers with a sense of humor (or masochistic tendencies). Meanwhile, somewhere a mainframe administrator is breaking into a cold sweat thinking about the 400-column code needed just to display a single tweet.
