What Do You Mean I Can't Define Hooks For Everything

OH. MY. GOD. The BETRAYAL! 😱 Fresh-faced newbies turning their backs on centuries of programming tradition to chase after that flirty, seductive "vibe coding" with its pretty frameworks and no documentation! Meanwhile, traditional coding stands there UTTERLY DEVASTATED watching its relationship crumble before its eyes! The audacity! The drama! It's like watching your partner leave you for someone who doesn't even know what a pointer is but has really cool Instagram filters. And honestly? I can't even blame them - who wants to spend 5 hours debugging a segmentation fault when you could just npm install your problems away?

THE ABSOLUTE AUDACITY of web developers passionately debating C++ vs Rust while having ZERO experience with either! 😱 It's like watching someone argue about the best way to perform brain surgery after watching a 5-minute YouTube tutorial. "Well ACTUALLY, Rust's memory safety is superior" says the person whose entire coding experience is copying jQuery snippets from Stack Overflow. The philosophical debate rages on while their actual React app is still using 47 dependencies to center a div. Pure. Comedic. GENIUS.

The corporate sleight-of-hand that birthed the "full-stack developer" job title in one brutal meme. Instead of hiring separate frontend and backend specialists, some genius in management realized they could just make one person do both jobs while keeping the salary exactly the same. It's the tech industry's equivalent of saying "would you like fries with that?" except the fries are an entire second profession you're now responsible for. And the worst part? We all nodded along and added "full-stack" to our LinkedIn profiles like it was some kind of promotion.

The cosmic horror of discovering that the language you've been trying to escape has consumed the entire programming universe. JavaScript started as that quirky little browser language, then quietly infiltrated servers with Node.js, slithered into mobile apps with React Native, and now apparently runs the simulation we call reality. Future archaeologists will dig through the ruins of our civilization and find nothing but npm dependency trees going all the way down. The astronaut with the gun is just acknowledging what senior developers have known all along—resistance is futile, and we're all just writing JavaScript with extra steps.

The eternal standoff between designers and programmers has entered the AI era. Designers look horrified when programmers use LLMs to generate UIs, while programmers give the same judgmental side-eye when designers use AI to generate code. It's like watching two people who can't swim criticizing each other's diving form. Neither result will compile correctly, but both sides will spend hours explaining why the other's approach is worse.

Client: "We need a mobile-friendly interface." Developer: "Sure, let me just shrink this nuclear power plant control room to fit on your iPhone." Nothing says responsive design quite like trying to cram 500 critical buttons, 47 status monitors, and enough blinking lights to cause a seizure into a 6-inch screen. I'm sure users will love pinch-zooming to avoid triggering a meltdown!
