Stack Overflow is dead and literally nobody is mourning. The guy throwing up a peace sign at the grave perfectly captures the developer community's reaction to Stack Overflow's downfall. After years of getting roasted by condescending moderators, having questions marked as duplicates within 0.3 seconds, and being told "this has been asked before" when it absolutely hasn't, developers are celebrating like it's Y2K all over again. The irony? Stack Overflow spent years gatekeeping knowledge and making junior devs feel like absolute garbage for asking "stupid" questions. Now that AI can answer coding questions without the side of passive-aggressive judgment, everyone's moved on faster than you can say "marked as duplicate." The platform that once saved us all became the villain in its own story. RIP to a real one... actually, nevermind.

The math checks out. That 1% of actual coding is probably just typing "console.log" or changing variable names. The other 99% is the true developer experience - an endless cycle of staring at error messages, questioning your career choices during coffee breaks, and the silent bonding ritual of group debugging where everyone looks confused together. The 5% Stack Overflow copy/paste is suspiciously low though... someone's not being honest with themselves.
