When "Aggressive Deadlines" Take On A Whole New Meaning

OH MY ACTUAL GOD! When someone said "find developers who work under pressure," this was NOT what they meant! These monsters literally kidnapped a programmer and forced him to code a gambling app while being TORTURED. Talk about the world's worst agile standup! "What's blocking you today?" "WELL, THE ACTUAL CHAINS, BRAD." 💀 This is startup culture gone completely feral—when "we need this shipped yesterday" becomes a literal hostage situation. The ultimate "client from hell" scenario that makes your micromanaging boss look like a saint!

Don't Solve Problems, Just Build Something

The classic Drake meme perfectly captures the current tech ecosystem's absurdity. Rejecting the noble pursuit of solving actual problems (you know, the things software was originally invented for), while enthusiastically embracing yet another AI chatbot that generates cat poems in Shakespearean English. The pipeline from "I'm going to change the world with code" to "Check out my AI app that predicts what sandwich you are based on your GitHub commits" is alarmingly short. The VC funding paradox in action - actual solutions get ignored while the 47th AI image generator gets a $10M seed round.
