The Cookie Banner Conspiracy

Someone with zero coding knowledge just had Claude build them a fully functional web app in minutes. The first comment? "You completely copied my site. You will be hearing from my lawyers." Turns out AI code generation is so good now that it independently recreates the same generic CRUD app everyone else has already built. When your localhost:3000 looks identical to someone else's localhost:3000, you know the training data was... thorough. The real winner here isn't Claude though—it's the lawyers who are about to discover a whole new revenue stream: AI-generated copyright disputes over todo apps that look suspiciously similar to every other todo app on GitHub.

The pie chart that never lies! While TailwindCSS promises reduced code bloat and maintainability, the chart reveals the brutal truth - that enormous yellow slice is the learning curve consuming 70% of the benefits. It's like buying a Ferrari only to spend most of your time reading the manual. Those class names hover:bg-blue-700 focus:ring-2 focus:ring-offset-2 md:text-sm lg:px-4 xl:tracking-wider 2xl:border-opacity-75 aren't going to memorize themselves! Developers staring at this chart are nodding so hard they're at risk of neck injury.

The AUDACITY of developers to describe their job with such grandiose terms! 💅 From "I design and build complex software systems" (yawn) to the more modest "I create websites and applications" (still pretentious), until we descend into the brutally honest "I write text on a computer" and "I press keys on a keyboard." But that final form—"I force electrons to do math"—is where the cosmic enlightenment happens! It's like watching someone's ego deflate and then suddenly TRANSCEND to quantum physics! The brain gets more illuminated with each level of self-awareness. Next time someone asks what I do, I'm skipping straight to "electron taskmaster" and watching their face melt.

SWEET MERCIFUL HEAVENS! The absolute TRAUMA of waking up from the most beautiful dream where coding and technology didn't exist! For one blissful moment, you thought you'd escaped the hellscape of JavaScript callbacks, React component lifecycles, and the eternal damnation of debugging! But NOPE! You're just a primitive primate destined to hunt for semicolons instead of ants. The sheer AUDACITY of your brain to make you think you could escape the programming matrix! Return to monke - it's genuinely the better option at this point! 🐒

The absolute madlad who hard-codes their API keys directly into the front-end JavaScript where anyone can see it with a quick inspect element. Security? What's that? Just a suggestion, like speed limits and code comments. Nothing says "I trust the internet" like broadcasting your AWS credentials to every single visitor. Next level: storing passwords in plaintext because "hashing is just extra work."

Oh. My. GOD. Even when you flee to TypeScript to escape JavaScript's chaos, the React error demons STILL find you! 😱 That unholy TypeScript error is basically screaming "NICE TRY, SWEETIE, BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM UNDEFINED PROPERTIES!" It's like upgrading from a haunted house to a haunted mansion - same ghosts, fancier floors! The bus to sanity has left the station, and both JS and TS are sitting there with that existential dread look wondering why they ever chose web development in the first place. THERE. IS. NO. ESCAPE.
