I'm In This Picture And I Don't Like It

First panel: AI reaching for a beautiful painting on the wall, representing our dreams of intelligent systems creating magnificent art. Second panel: Reality hits with a wall of if(){} statements. That's right folks, behind the curtain of every "AI" product your CEO is hyping up is just a glorified chain of conditional logic some poor dev had to write at 1 AM while questioning their career choices. Seven years of computer science education to write if(user_says_hello) return "Hello there!" but with better variable names.

Remember when converting a WAV to MP3 required summoning the digital gods with seventeen different programs, three system crashes, and a blood sacrifice to LimeWire? That chaotic mess of hardware isn't NASA mission control—it's just what it took to compress "My Chemical Romance" into something that could fit on your 128MB MP3 player. The best part? After 4 hours of work, the file would inevitably corrupt halfway through the song. But hey, at least you learned enough terminal commands to qualify as a junior sysadmin.

That magical moment when you run ESLint hoping to fix your code, only to discover it's playing multiplayer instead of single-player mode. You start with 10 errors, hit that glorious "Fix All" button with the confidence of someone who's never been betrayed by technology, and suddenly you're the proud owner of 20 errors. It's like watching your technical debt compound interest in real-time. Six years of professional development experience and I still fall for this every damn time. The only thing more reliable than ESLint breaking your code is your PM asking "how hard could it be to add this small feature?"
