Perks Of Being A Vibe Coder

The smugness is palpable! Flynn Rider here represents the web dev who's convinced native apps are dinosaurs heading for extinction. Meanwhile, native devs are quietly enjoying their superior performance, offline capabilities, and battery efficiency while the web stack changes completely every six months. Sure, web tech is "everywhere" - just like that restaurant with 2-star reviews. It's there, but do you really want it? The irony is that this meme was probably viewed on a native app because the web version crashed.

VS Code users staring blankly at their life choices while WebStorm, CLion, and DataGrip users are doing interpretive dance with their CPU usage. One IDE, zero thoughts. Three IDEs, zero available RAM. The duality of development.

Ah, the JavaScript ecosystem's most dedicated users - people who literally type "npm install malware" and hit enter. The package has 12 weekly downloads, was last updated 9 years ago, and somehow still claims 12 victims weekly. The best part? It's ISC licensed, so you're legally permitted to destroy your own system! How thoughtful! I'm torn between admiring these developers' curiosity and questioning their survival instincts. It's like watching someone lick a frozen pole "just to see what happens" - except with their production servers.

Ah, the modern "full stack" - three JavaScript frameworks and absolutely nothing else. Backend? What's that? Database? Never heard of it. Networking? Is that some kind of social media thing? This is the equivalent of saying you're a car mechanic because you know how to change three different brands of windshield wipers. The stack in question appears to be Meteor.js, BitBucket, and some other JS framework that probably didn't exist last Tuesday and will be deprecated by Friday.

The first thing you do with a fresh Windows install? Search "Chrome" in Edge. Then Edge is like, "Wait! We're basically the same now! Both Chromium-based! Please stay!" It's the digital equivalent of that desperate ex who changed their entire personality to be more like your new partner. Sorry Edge, but changing your engine to Chromium doesn't erase those years of Internet Explorer trauma. Some trust issues just run too deep.

The eternal optimism of junior developers captured in perfect Buzz Lightyear form! Top panel shows the euphoric moment every coder experiences after a caffeine-fueled coding sprint: "I've created something revolutionary!" Meanwhile, the bottom panel reveals the harsh reality - your "groundbreaking" app is just one of thousands gathering digital dust in the app store wasteland. That "vibe-coding" approach (aka writing code based on vibes rather than architecture or planning) inevitably leads to the special kind of disappointment that comes when you realize your three-hour masterpiece isn't actually the next Uber. The app store doesn't care about your passion or how many energy drinks you consumed - it's where dreams and 10,000 nearly identical weather apps coexist in perfect anonymity.
