I Was There When The Ancient Keyboard Was Forged

When some Gen Alpha kid in 2064 tries to explain Alt+F4 to you like it's revolutionary tech... Listen here, youngster. I've been refreshing browsers since before your parents were born. I've witnessed the birth of keyboard shortcuts, survived the IE6 era, and debugged code on dial-up. Alt+F4 isn't just a command—it's a relic from an age when we had to trick interns into closing their work with it. The ancient keyboard arts weren't taught; they were suffered through.

The Ultimate Copy-Paste Showdown

The brutal honesty of this hits harder than a production outage on Friday afternoon. Nobody's writing code from scratch anymore—not ChatGPT, not developers, not even that one colleague who claims they never use Stack Overflow. Modern programming is basically sophisticated copy-paste with extra steps. We're all just standing on the shoulders of GitHub repos and praying the dependencies don't break. The real innovation is knowing which code to steal and how to make it look like you didn't.
