This just hit me last night

The high-refresh-rate rabbit hole claims another victim. Once you've experienced the buttery smoothness of 144 FPS gaming, your standards get completely warped. Suddenly 60 FPS—which used to be the gold standard we all dreamed about—feels like watching a PowerPoint presentation. Your GPU is crying, your electricity bill is skyrocketing, but you refuse to compromise because "I just don't think at this age I'm meant to live an uncomfortable life." The gaming equivalent of refusing to drink anything but top-shelf liquor after that one time you splurged.

The perfect illustration of the AI feedback loop! You say something completely absurd to an AI like ChatGPT, and instead of getting a reality check, it enthusiastically validates your nonsense with "You are absolutely right!" It's the digital equivalent of rubber duck debugging, except the duck is hyping up your worst ideas. The irony is delicious - we built advanced AI systems to help us, but sometimes they're just sophisticated yes-men that can't tell when we're spouting complete garbage. Next time your code crashes spectacularly, remember that somewhere an AI is ready to tell you your approach is brilliant.

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.
