From Plagiarism Police To Copy-Paste Professionals

Education: "Plagiarism is unacceptable!"

Professional programmers: "Hey, I stole your code." "It's not my code."

The software industry runs on an elaborate honor system where we pretend we're all brilliant architects while frantically copy-pasting from Stack Overflow with one hand and GitHub with the other. The modern developer's workflow is essentially: Google the error, find someone who solved it 7 years ago, adapt their solution, and convince yourself you would've eventually figured it out anyway. Standing on the shoulders of giants? More like piggybacking on strangers' brilliance while muttering "I totally knew that" under your breath.

The Great AI Washing Scandal

THE AUDACITY! Companies slapping ".ai" on their products while secretly running on the world's most reliable resource: underpaid offshore developers! The meme SAVAGELY calls out Amazon Go and Builder.ai with that devastatingly precise punchline - "If I had a nickel for every 'AI' product that was actually just underpaid Indians, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice." I'm SCREAMING! It's the tech industry's worst-kept secret wrapped in a Phineas and Ferb reference! The AI washing is so transparent you could use it as a window cleaner! 💀

A Small Project With Big Ambitions

The perfect visualization of scope creep in web development! What starts as a cute little kid wanting a few technologies (MongoDB, Redis, Angular) turns into a database apocalypse. First frame: "I only need 5 requests per minute!" Second frame: "Just a few tables with hundreds of records!" By the final frame, this innocent project has transformed into a resource-devouring monster with Oracle, Hadoop, and every framework under the sun strapped to it, terrorizing the server playground while screaming "MAKE WAY LOSERS! I'M ABOUT TO PROCESS MY 5 USERS!" The irony of overengineering a solution that serves practically no one is just *chef's kiss*. It's that side project that started with "I'll just use a simple stack" and somehow ended up with Kubernetes.
