Stop Shortening Variable Names Istg

Ah yes, the ancient programmer tradition of naming variables like you're being charged by the character. "Why use 'playerCharacterPosition' when 'pcp' works?" they say, while their IDE helpfully autocompletes it anyway. The melting yellow creature perfectly captures that internal meltdown when someone suggests using descriptive variable names. "But my fingers will get tired from all that typing that the computer does for me!" Meanwhile, six months later, nobody remembers what 'plobjcaracy' was supposed to mean, including the person who wrote it.

The Existential Crisis Of AI

When you ask ChatGPT to write code for itself and it gives you that look . The digital equivalent of asking a chef to cook himself for dinner. The audacity of some users thinking they can just casually request the AI to create its own replacement is both hilarious and slightly terrifying. Next thing you'll be asking it to solve the halting problem while making you coffee.

Software Engineer (Real Job)

Ah, the corporate jargon olympics! The more words it takes to explain what you do, the more likely you're part of the tech industry's elaborate charade. First guy: "I'm a SaaS-based fintech sales analyst" = I cold call people trying to sell spreadsheets. Second one: "I develop & maintain automated capabilities" = I wrote one Python script that sends emails. Third contestant: "I create systems to record blockchain data" = I made a fancy Excel sheet nobody uses. Meanwhile, the only honest soul in tech: "I catch fish." Straight to the point, tangible results, no buzzwords required. The beard and pipe are just bonus authenticity points. The brutal truth: if your job title needs a paragraph of explanation and three rounds of buzzword bingo, you might be compensating for something!

Forking The Billion Dollar Idea

Anthropic drops a billion on Bum (probably some AI startup or acqui-hire), meanwhile someone just casually hits that fork button on GitHub and gets the exact same codebase for the low, low price of absolutely nothing. Open source licensing is basically the ultimate "right-click, save as" for entire companies. The best part? They're both technically legal moves. One guy's burning VC money like it's going out of style, the other's just... using git as intended. That's the beauty and chaos of open source—your billion-dollar acquisition is literally one git clone away from being commoditized.
