We just spun up about 20,000 virtual computers to chug through regenerating 12 million image previews in our new style. In 23 real world minutes, we consumed the equivalent compute of letting my laptop chug 247 for 3 months and it cost about 10. Show this thread 195 17 2.1K 10.8K

The brutal truth about the self-taught programmer journey hits harder than a null pointer exception! This dev's thumbnail appears to be giving the most nihilistic career advice ever, with that classic truncated text making it look like he's telling self-taught programmers to just end it all. In reality, it's probably clickbait for a video about programming struggles or tips. Every self-taught dev has that 3 AM moment staring at broken code thinking "maybe I should've just become a farmer instead." The beanie and disappointed expression perfectly capture that "I've been debugging this for 6 hours and the error was a missing semicolon" energy.

THE ABSOLUTE AUDACITY of this website asking you to paste your private key to "check if it's already taken"! 💀 This is like a burglar politely asking if you'd mind leaving your house keys under the doormat so they can "make sure nobody else has a copy." HONEY, the moment you paste that SSH key, it's not private anymore - it's basically a VIP party invitation to your entire server! The green "Success!" message is just the chef's kiss of evil genius. "Congratulations! Your digital identity has been successfully compromised! Would you like fries with that?"

The eternal tech cycle strikes again! Poor orange dev is trapped in a "hype loop" – that inescapable vortex where we convince ourselves every new framework/language/tool will solve all our problems. When asked how long this affliction lasts, yellow dev casually drops "about 3 years" – just enough time to master something before it becomes "legacy tech." Then comes the inevitable suggestion to abandon ship for some shiny new "game-changing" solution. The final "good luck" is the chef's kiss – that knowing farewell to someone about to waste years chasing the next technological mirage. Meanwhile, the graveyard of abandoned technologies grows ever larger. Angular.js sends its regards.
