The Great Job Title Inflation Crisis

The bell curve of programming wisdom strikes again! At the far left, we have sweet summer children who think "computers are magic" because they've never had to debug a race condition at 2 AM. In the middle, the enlightened souls who understand the fundamental truth: computers only do exactly what you tell them to do, no more, no less. Then at the far right, we circle back to "computers are magic" – but this time it's the grizzled veterans who've seen so much unexplainable behavior that they've transcended rational explanation. "Why did restarting the server fix it? No idea. Magic. Ship it."

Content My GF Me explaining why my code is so good

When your CS professor says "implement a sorting algorithm" but you've got an OpenAI API key and zero shame. This dev just created the world's most expensive sorting function by literally asking GPT-4 to be a sorting algorithm! Sure, it works—but imagine burning through API credits to sort [42, 3, 99, 7, 13] when a simple Array.sort() would do the trick. The true innovation here is maximizing both latency AND cost while solving a problem that was figured out decades ago. Congratulations, you've invented O(API) complexity—where the limiting factor is your credit card limit!
