React Is Native Now

Found in the wild depths of npm: a package called "react-buttplug" that connects React to... well, exactly what you think. The description "Here there be WASM" is the cherry on top of this cursed sundae. The fact that someone spent actual development hours creating a React provider for Buttplug.io (a real "intimate hardware" API) and then published it with that name is peak developer humor. Five years later and zero dependents - shocking absolutely no one. This is what happens when you tell developers "you can build anything" without adding "but please don't."

Ah, the elusive "Vibe Code Cleanup Specialist" – the job title nobody asked for but suddenly everyone has on LinkedIn! What started as a joke has clearly reached pandemic proportions. It's like watching evolution happen in real-time, except instead of developing opposable thumbs, developers are developing increasingly nebulous job titles. From Finland to Colombia, these brave pioneers are fighting the good fight against... bad vibes in your codebase? Is this what happens when HR and engineering have one too many happy hours together? Next week they'll be "Quantum Refactoring Shamans" and "Legacy Code Exorcists." Remember when we just called ourselves "developers" and cried silently into our keyboards? Simpler times.

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of tech recruiters expecting you to be a full-stack developer, DevOps engineer, database administrator, AND UX designer all rolled into one mythical unicorn creature! 🦄 They're out here posting job listings that require you to master 17 different technologies spanning from backend databases to frontend frameworks, PLUS Kubernetes orchestration, with 10+ years experience in a framework that was released 3 years ago! And all for the generous salary of "competitive" (read: barely covers your coffee addiction). The brutal truth? They have NO IDEA what these technologies actually do or how they relate. They just copy-paste buzzwords from other job listings and call it a day. Honey, Postgres and React are not interchangeable skills - they're from completely different UNIVERSES! 💅

Oh. My. GOD! The AUDACITY of the tech world in one perfect image! 😱 On the left, some poor soul announces they've literally BENT THE LAWS OF PHYSICS by creating a TIME MACHINE—you know, just casually REVOLUTIONIZING HUMAN EXISTENCE—and nobody gives a flying function about it! Meanwhile, the person on the right is absolutely SWARMED with media attention for... wait for it... "7 JavaScript libraries you should know about." SEVEN! LIBRARIES! The horror! The drama! The sheer absurdity of our priorities as a species! This is why we can't have nice things like time travel, people! We're too busy chasing the next hot npm package that will be deprecated faster than you can say "node_modules"! 💅

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of these job listings! 💀 Recruiters out here casually asking for someone who can juggle 17 different technologies spanning three programming languages, two frontend frameworks, three databases, four AWS services, Linux admin skills, testing methodologies, containerization, AND orchestration... all while probably offering "competitive salary" (translation: barely above minimum wage). Honey, they're not looking for a "Full Stack Developer" - they're looking for an ENTIRE COMPANY crammed into one exhausted human body! What's next? "Must also make coffee, unclog toilets, and occasionally perform heart surgery"?!

The classic tech recruiter bait-and-switch in its natural habitat! First they post for a fullstack React dev, then suddenly it's a desktop app, then just frontend, and finally—surprise!—they want a React Native mobile expert. And companies wonder why they can't find "qualified" candidates when they're playing job description roulette. It's like ordering a pizza and getting mad when the sushi chef can't make you tacos.
