Biting The Hand That Feeds Your Paycheck

Rejecting frontend work? Reasonable. Avoiding backend tasks? Understandable. But the weekend? That's the sacred runtime environment where all my personal processes finally execute without interruption. No standup meetings, no Jira tickets, just me and my neglected side projects that will definitely get finished this time. Definitely.

The eternal dance between hackers and terrible code continues! Top panel shows a desperate hacker searching for vulnerable apps, while the bottom panel reveals r/VibeCoding - that magical place where developers proudly share their "works of art" built with duct tape, prayers, and zero security considerations. It's like watching nature documentaries where predators and prey find each other through some cosmic algorithm. Those devs posting "I built this app in 2 days with no prior experience!" are basically sending engraved invitations to every hacker on the planet. After 15 years in the industry, I've learned the first rule of security: the easier something was to build, the easier it is to break.

Left panel: Just innocently using "vibe" to describe that sweet mental state where the code flows through your fingers like butter through a hot knife. Right panel: Suddenly realizing everyone thinks you're just copying AI responses because "vibe coding" has become internet slang for "I asked ChatGPT to write this for me." The flow state and AI accusations - two sides of the same monkey.

Finally, a social network where I can showcase my true skills: writing HTML tags that break in production but somehow work in dev. "CodedIn" - where your profile strength is measured by how many Stack Overflow questions you've copied without understanding. Connect with other developers who also pretend to know what they're doing.

THE AUDACITY! Spend your ENTIRE ACADEMIC CAREER having "copying is unacceptable" drilled into your skull, only to enter the workforce where programmers are literally PROUD of stealing code! 💅 That moment when one dev confesses "Bro, I copied your code" and the other just shrugs "It's not my code" is the ULTIMATE BETRAYAL of everything education promised! Meanwhile, StackOverflow and GitHub exist SOLELY so we can copy each other's solutions without having to think! The education system LIED TO US! Welcome to professional programming, where "copying" magically transforms into "code reuse" and "leveraging existing solutions" the second you get that paycheck! DRAMATIC GASP!

The eternal battle between frontend and backend continues! Some software devs love to dismiss terrible UX as a "skill issue" – as if users should need a PhD to navigate your janky interface. "Oh, you can't find the submit button that's hidden behind three hamburger menus and requires a secret handshake? Sounds like a YOU problem." Meanwhile, that butterfly of awful design keeps fluttering away, ready to torture the next unsuspecting user. Pro tip: if your grandma can't use it, it's not the user who needs more skills.
