Rewriting Twitter In COBOL: The Ultimate Legacy Upgrade
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.

Green Squares To Six Figures
When LinkedIn meets GitHub, truth bombs explode! This genius "Senior Data Engineer" created a script that automatically commits to GitHub every few minutes—making his contribution graph look like he's coding 24/7. Little did he know his "10-minute hack" would expose the entire tech hiring circus. The second part shows a recruiter drooling over this fake activity: "We offered him $500k without even interviewing!" Because apparently, a green GitHub grid is more impressive than actual skills. Who needs technical interviews when you can automate your way to looking productive? Remember kids, it's not about building useful things—it's about making sure your contribution graph looks like a radioactive lawn.

Revolutionary Startup Idea: Being The Middleman
OH. MY. GOD. The absolute PEAK of startup innovation right here! 🙄 Some genius had the REVOLUTIONARY idea to... *dramatic pause*... make API calls to OpenAI. That's it. That's the entire business model! While everyone else is trying to be the "New Facebook" or "New Snapchat," this visionary is basically saying "let's be the middleman for technology that already exists and charge for it!" It's like opening a store that sells... trips to the actual store. THE AUDACITY! THE VISION! Silicon Valley investors are probably THROWING their money at this groundbreaking concept as we speak! Next week's brilliant startup: "We click buttons for you!"

Ah, the sacred GitHub contribution graph—where the greenness of your squares matters more than your actual skills! This marketing person just proved that tech hiring is basically a casino where the house edge is "having a pretty heat map." Forget degrees, experience, or actual coding ability—just make sure your contribution graph looks like a well-maintained lawn. $900k for a pretty pattern of green squares? Meanwhile, actual developers are frantically pushing commits to empty repos at 11:59 PM just to keep their streaks alive. The ultimate tech industry cheat code: don't learn to code, just learn to look like you code. Absolutely brilliant.

The Dumbest Man Alive Gets Outplayed
Grammar correction in the wild. King declares himself "the dumbest man alive," only to be immediately dethroned when someone mentions "AI prompt engineering is the future." The true champion of ignorance has been found. Happens to the best of us—one minute you're the dumbest person in the room, then someone walks in talking about their revolutionary prompt that just says "make it good" with fifteen exclamation points.

Ah, the infamous "Elon Sort" – the perfect algorithm if you hate both your data and your users. It's basically what happens when Silicon Valley hubris meets computer science. Fire half your array elements, realize you need them, bring them back in a completely random order, repeat this chaotic process an arbitrary number of times, then just lie about the results. Reminds me of every startup I've consulted for that claimed their ML algorithm was "revolutionary" when it was really just a glorified random number generator with a press release.

Buzz Vs The Buzzes
Oh look, another tech bro who thinks his AI startup is a special snowflake in an avalanche! The meme perfectly captures the delusion of every "visionary founder" who believes their AI solution will "disrupt the entire industry" while the actual industry is just a massive warehouse of identical Buzz Lightyear toys. Spoiler alert: your revolutionary algorithm is probably just another if-else statement wearing a neural network costume. The tech world doesn't need another "groundbreaking" AI startup that predicts which cat videos you'll watch next—it needs founders who understand that saying "we use AI" is about as unique as having a LinkedIn profile. Next time you want to disrupt something, try disrupting your own ego first!
