Always The Same

Nothing quite matches the existential horror of revisiting your own code from a year ago. First comes the shock and disgust ("Why? WHY?"), followed by that moment of resigned understanding ("Oh, that's why") when you remember the impossible deadline, the 2AM energy drinks, and that one Stack Overflow answer you copy-pasted with blind faith. Your past self was simultaneously a genius for making it work and an absolute villain for what they did to your future debugging sessions.

Copilot Has Ruined Code Reviewing For Me

Remember when code reviews meant finding your coworker's spaghetti logic and passive-aggressive variable names? Now it's just you, questioning your existence while scrutinizing AI-generated code that's somehow both flawless and completely nonsensical. The modern code reviewer: frantically Googling obscure algorithms at 2 AM because you can't tell if GitHub Copilot is brilliant or hallucinating. "Is this O(log n) solution actually genius or am I being gaslit by a language model that learned to code from Stack Overflow?" Nothing grinds your gears quite like spending your precious human life debugging code written by a machine that doesn't even get tired or need coffee breaks.
