Humble Albanian Virus

Left: "It took me a few minutes to make BibleGPT with custom GPT. Now? 5 seconds with Devin." Right: "Who is doubting thomas" → "Sorry, an error occurred while fetching your answer." Bottom: "It exposed my API key so I had to revoke :(" The AI dev tool pipeline in 2024: Build something in 5 seconds, deploy it in 2 seconds, expose your API keys in 1 second. Progress! This is why we can't have nice things in tech. The faster we build, the faster we leak credentials. The modern developer experience is just speedrunning security vulnerabilities.

That moment when you realize your "no logs" VPN is actually Ned Flanders in a trench coat peeking through your browser history. VPN providers love to advertise their "zero logs" policy while simultaneously watching everything you do like an overly attached ex. It's the digital equivalent of someone promising they're not listening to your conversation while wearing noise-canceling headphones backward. Trust in the cybersecurity world is about as reliable as a chocolate teapot in a sauna.

The AUDACITY of McAfee antivirus! First it barges into your computer like an uninvited relative, then it has the NERVE to become the very threat it swore to destroy! 💀 It's the digital equivalent of hiring a bodyguard who follows you around screaming "DANGER! DANGER!" while simultaneously pickpocketing you and eating all your snacks. Your CPU is literally BEGGING for mercy while McAfee decides your computer isn't running slow enough yet. And the uninstall process? Honey, that's not an uninstall—that's a hostage negotiation with your own hardware! 🙄

Windows security in a nutshell. User asks to install a program, computer happily agrees. Then suddenly the computer gets suspicious and interrogates the program like an overzealous border agent. "Where are you from, buddy?" The program doesn't know its own origin (like most of us after three cups of coffee), and boom—instant virus alert. Meanwhile, Linux users are sipping tea and watching the drama unfold from their fortress of package managers and repositories.

Ah, the classic "permission denied" scenario! A man has a heart attack, and a Computer Science PhD swoops in with OldMan.setHealth("100%") - but it fails spectacularly. Then comes the magic word every Linux user knows: sudo . Because nothing says "I have the power to fix anything" like superuser privileges. Medical degree? Nah. Root access? Absolutely. This is basically every programmer thinking they can solve real-world problems with code snippets. The patient recovered thanks to elevated permissions, not medical expertise. Classic case of "it works in production."

Somewhere in an alternate universe, browser makers actually considered user experience over ad revenue. Imagine a world where you set your cookie preferences ONCE instead of clicking "Reject All" 47 times per day like some deranged cookie-hating woodpecker. But no—that would be too convenient. The suits had a good laugh about that one before going back to their champagne and "innovative monetization strategies." Meanwhile, the rest of us are trapped in cookie banner hell, our fingers developing repetitive strain injuries from declining tracking on the same sites we visited yesterday.
