HTML Is A Programming Language

Ah, the radical concept of *checks notes* owning what you pay for! Remember the ancient times when you'd buy Photoshop on a CD-ROM and it was just... yours? Now Adobe's subscription model has your credit card in a chokehold while whispering "it's for the updates, baby." The SaaS revolution turned software from products into hostage situations. "That'll be $14.99/month for features you'll use twice a year. Cancel anytime! (But your files become useless if you do.)" The real irony? The younger generation thinks this subscription madness is normal while us "boomers" are over here screaming into the void about perpetual licenses. If expecting ownership after payment makes me a boomer, then hand me my orthopedic shoes and early bird dinner special—I'll wear both with pride.

The eternal battle of egos in tech companies laid bare! Designers clutch their Pantone swatches in horror when a new creative joins the team - "Am I not enough?" - as if their entire identity is under attack. Meanwhile, engineers are over there channeling their inner Caesar from Planet of the Apes, practically high-fiving at the thought of another code monkey joining their troop. "Apes together strong" isn't just a meme - it's their entire philosophy. The stark contrast between the lone creative genius syndrome and the collective problem-solving mindset is why your design team needs therapy and your engineering team needs occasionally to shower.

Ah, the sweet irony of digital existence. Imagine needing a machine to confirm you're not a machine. It's like asking a fish to verify you can swim. We've gone from "I think, therefore I am" to "An AI thinks I am, therefore I am." The existential crisis of 2023 isn't about purpose—it's about convincing algorithms we're flesh and blood while they're busy learning to mimic our every thought. Next up: AIs requiring verification from other AIs that they're authentic AIs. The circle of digital life continues.

Kid writes to Santa: "Dear Santa I want to create an operating system using HTML." Santa's immediate reaction is to sneak in and smother the child with a pillow. Mercy killing. Some crimes against computer science can't be forgiven. Next he'll be asking for a database built with CSS.

Ah, the classic UX principle "Don't Make Me Think" meets reality. The developer proudly creates what they believe is an elegant, intuitive teapot UI. Meanwhile, the user gets a face full of coffee trying to figure out which obscure spout actually pours the liquid. It's the perfect metaphor for when developers build "user-friendly" interfaces that somehow require a PhD to operate. The road to unusable software is paved with developers who never watched a single user test.

Chrome tabs and AI models - the two horsemen of RAM apocalypse. ChatGPT casually using 13.8 GB of memory like it's nothing, while your computer quietly weeps. Remember when we thought 4GB was excessive? Now our browsers are out here consuming memory like tech bros at an all-you-can-eat buffet. Your PC isn't running an AI assistant - it's financing its therapy sessions.
