I Salute You My Fallen Soldiers 🫡

The holy trinity of software development: Stack Overflow for solutions, copy-paste shortcuts for implementation, and the sleep-deprived original authors who actually built the thing from scratch. After 15 years in this industry, I've learned the real heroes aren't the ones answering questions online—they're the caffeine-fueled maniacs who wrote the original codebase at 3am, powered by energy drinks and pure spite. The rest of us are just digital archaeologists digging through their ancient artifacts.

The death spiral of Stack Overflow begins! That sharp nosedive right after ChatGPT's release isn't just a graph—it's the sound of millions of developers closing their "how to center a div" tabs. Why spend 20 minutes getting roasted by forum veterans when AI will give you the answer without judging your life choices? Stack Overflow: where questions were answered with "Did you even try Google?" Now we're all asking ChatGPT, "Can you fix my garbage code?" and it politely says "Certainly!" instead of "Delete your IDE."

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute DEVOLUTION of programmers is too real! 😭 On the left, we have the CHAD programmer of yesteryear - building an ENTIRE OPERATING SYSTEM FROM SCRATCH, talking directly to God, and casually mentioning CIA conspiracies while coding in 640x480 resolution like some kind of digital BARBARIAN! And what do we have now? A pathetic little doge in a coffee sweater, TRAPPED in Vim, desperately clinging to Stack Overflow and Spotify for emotional support! Can't even exit a text editor without begging for help! The audacity! The TRAGEDY! For the uninitiated: TempleOS was an operating system coded entirely by one man (Terry Davis) who claimed divine inspiration. Meanwhile, Vim is that text editor where generations of programmers have been held hostage because nobody remembers how to exit it (it's :q! by the way, YOU'RE WELCOME).
