Discord Is Just IRC For Zoomers

This is what happens when you ask a sleep-deprived developer to explain how the internet works after their fourth espresso shot. The diagram perfectly captures the chaotic reality beneath our digital world - from the "lore accurate cloud server" (just a drawing of a cloud) to the existential foundation of "quantum vacuum decay" that apparently powers everything. My favorite part is the brutal honesty of the internet breakdown: 50% cat pictures, 25% games, 20% ads, 4% Rust developers who won't shut up about Rust, and a measly 1% useful knowledge. That's not a diagram - that's a spiritual revelation. And somewhere in this technological fever dream, there's "unpaid open source developers" holding everything together while "C developers writing dynamic arrays" lurk beneath the surface. It's not wrong... it's just painfully right in the most unhinged way possible.

Oh look, the world's most useless verification screen! They literally display the code right above the input boxes. Security experts everywhere just felt a disturbance in the force. This is what happens when the product manager says "make verification simple" and the developer takes it a bit too literally. The kind of code that makes penetration testers cry tears of joy during security audits. Somewhere, a junior dev is proudly announcing they've reduced failed verification attempts by 100%.

Cloudflare going down has become the developer's equivalent of "my dog ate my homework" - except it's actually true about 40% of the time. The other 60% you're just on Reddit. The beautiful thing about Cloudflare outages is they're the perfect scapegoat. Your code could be burning down faster than a JavaScript framework's relevance, but if Cloudflare has even a hiccup, you've got yourself a get-out-of-jail-free card. Boss walks by? "Can't deploy, Cloudflare's down." Standup meeting? "Blocked by Cloudflare." Missed deadline? You guessed it. The manager's response of "Oh. Carry on." is peak resignation. They've heard this excuse seventeen times this quarter and honestly, they're too tired to verify. When a single CDN provider has enough market share to be a legitimate excuse for global productivity loss, we've really built ourselves into a corner haven't we?
