The joy of working in older codebases 😆

Content OK looks like a simple script will do - we can do this in vanilla IS, no problem! No need for a framework... And the code will be cleaner if I add an abstraction layer over the database and if I use API endpoints 1 guess I could document it and out it on Github, maybe it'll help someone out... Hmm, I guess I should make this a bit more object oriented... ..and it can't hurt to separate out the front-end with templates... WHAT'S THIS?? ANOTHER Javascript Framework!? And alreody 1000 stars on Github?? Tell me you didn' I mean... it wasn't on purpose. CommitStrip.com

Look, we've been watching AI tools devour our RAM and GPU cycles for years now. Copilot, ChatGPT, and all their friends have been running wild, demanding more VRAM than a poorly optimized AAA game. PC enthusiasts have been stockpiling GPUs like they're preparing for the apocalypse, watching their electricity bills skyrocket. So when Microsoft Copilot—one of the major AI players—finally bites the dust? Yeah, that's a gravestone photo op moment. The PC Master Race crowd is ready to celebrate like it's the end of an era of bloated Electron apps. Finally, maybe we can go back to using our RTX 4090s for what they were meant for: running Minecraft with 500 mods at 4K. The irony? Microsoft probably already has Copilot 2.0 in the pipeline, ready to consume even more resources. The cycle never ends.

Content Product Owner: Build me a bridge! Developer A: This bridge is a combination retro-modern suspension bridge tunnel. Even though the connecting road has three lanes, the bridge has seventeen lanes because we anticipate expansion. We used twine for the suspension part because we couldn't get steel cables to work, and the tunnel part floods every Tuesday and Thursday. Also, the bridge turns pink and shoots fireworks on my birthday. And sometimes on Khloe Kardashian's birthday. Developer B: This bridge is a flat slab of adamantium-reinforced concrete that is bolted to the Earth's core. It has one lane and cannot be expanded. Ever. It is guaranteed to function until the heat death of the universe.

The ultimate dad joke meets developer obsession! Imagine being so devoted to JavaScript Object Notation that you literally name your flesh and blood after it. The kid's college application is probably going to be perfectly structured with nested properties and no trailing commas. His first words weren't "mama" or "dada" but "{" and "}". The real question is whether his middle name is "Parse" so when he gets in trouble they can yell "JSON.Parse Error!" Siblings XML and YAML are definitely feeling jealous right now.
