Let's Go Back To Monke

Oh. My. GOD. This absolute MADMAN is out here coding UI in pure C while the rest of us are frantically learning our 47th JavaScript framework! 💅 Look at this CHAOS WIZARD manually drawing rectangles and buttons with raw C code like it's 1985! Meanwhile React developers are having existential crises when their npm packages are 3 minutes out of date. The AUDACITY of this programmer to declare "not getting replaced by AI" while doing something so unnecessarily complicated that even AI would look at it and say "no thanks, I'll stick to generating cat pictures." The video title says it all - this isn't about efficiency, it's about SPITE. Pure, beautiful, petty programmer spite. And with nearly half a million views, apparently spite sells!

The eternal territorial battle of the codebase has claimed another victim! Some ambitious "full-stack" dev thought they could just waltz in and grab a juicy frontend feature from the backlog without consulting the frontend tribe first. Classic rookie mistake. Meanwhile, the senior frontend dev—guardian of the CSS sacred lands and protector of the React realm—isn't having any of it. They've already passive-aggressively reassigned that JIRA ticket faster than you can say "npm install". The software manager watches in horror as another sprint planning devolves into a Breaking Bad-style turf war. Spoiler alert: nobody touches the frontend code without paying the React tax first!

VSCode just implemented the most accurate geolocation feature ever—detecting you're in Mexico and auto-applying the sepia filter for that authentic "Breaking Bad Mexico scene" experience! Next update: opening it in Russia turns everything grayscale, and Japan gets neon cyberpunk themes. The code doesn't care about your syntax errors anymore—it's too busy matching the aesthetic of your current latitude and longitude.

The circus of frontend development in four acts. First, we're applying basic makeup with web apps. Then we're adding a bit more flair with React's "seamless" UI promises. By the third panel, we've gone full clown with React Native's write-once fantasy. But the final transformation? Finding out Windows Start menu is supposedly React Native. That's when you realize you've been part of the circus all along. The progression from "this makes sense" to "dear god what have we done" is the true frontend experience.

When you ask a shopping assistant for coding help and it actually delivers! Rufus here is like that one Stack Overflow answer that doesn't start with "Why would you even want to do that?" The absolute madlad is out here dropping React tutorials in the Super Glue section. Sure, it warned us it "may not always get things right," but then proceeds to nail a perfect React component tutorial complete with code snippets. Meanwhile, my team's senior devs ghost me for three days when I ask how to center a div.

Poor vanilla JS developer sitting in a pool of judgment while everyone else enjoys their framework-enhanced lives. The classic "why aren't you using React/Angular/Vue?" interrogation that happens at every dev meetup. Writing raw JavaScript in 2023 is like showing up to a gunfight with a sharpened pencil – technically a weapon, but you're gonna have a bad time. The framework folks will never let you swim in peace!
