Merry Xmas.😇

The unholy screeching sound you hear isn't Tom the cat—it's me recoiling from someone suggesting I use a light IDE theme. My retinas have been carefully calibrated to the soothing darkness of my development environment since 2007, thank you very much. Nothing says "I don't value my eyeballs" quite like coding on what is essentially a digital flashlight. Dark mode isn't just a preference, it's a lifestyle choice and a sacred covenant among developers who code past 8 PM.

Content Sebastian Ramirez tiangolo I saw a job post the other day. It required 4 years of experience in FastAPI. I couldn't apply as I only have 1.5 years of experience since I created that thing. Maybe it's time to re-evaluate that "years of experience skill level" 9:40 AM Jul 11, 2020 Twitter Web App ProdrammerHumor.io

Oh snap! The AI bubble just got popped harder than my dreams of writing bug-free code on the first try! 🎯 After years of hype cycles and buzzword bingo, we've reached that beautiful moment of clarity where someone finally said the quiet part out loud. All those fancy "AI solutions" your boss keeps pushing? Just regular algorithms wearing expensive suits and practicing elevator pitches! It's like when you rename your "if-else" function to "DecisionIntelligenceEngine™" and suddenly your startup is worth $10 million. Pure magic! ✨

Ah, the modern programmer's greatest alibi. "My model's thinking" has replaced "code's compiling" as the perfect excuse to stare blankly at nothing while your manager hovers nearby. The beauty is in the plausible deniability. Your LLM could be solving world hunger or generating cat pictures—nobody knows! And that 20-minute "thinking" phase? Could be processing terabytes of data or just stuck in an infinite loop. Either way, you're off the hook. Ten years in the industry and I've seen the excuses evolve from "the build's running" to "Docker's updating" to this masterpiece. Progress!

The irony is just *chef's kiss*. Developer leaves TODOs to add comments and use proper Python style, but writes them as comments themselves. It's like leaving a note saying "remember to write notes" and then wondering why nothing gets done. The squiggly underlines are just the IDE screaming in digital agony at the self-referential paradox. Seven years of coding experience and I still have projects with TODOs from 2018 that are technically "in progress."
