The Ever-Expanding Definition Of Full Stack

The job market for programmers in a nutshell! Everyone's turning down opportunities until someone mentions PHP, and suddenly there's a disturbance in the force. That desperate "for PHP" reveal is the programming equivalent of saying you need someone to clean portable toilets at a music festival. Suddenly the room goes silent, lightning strikes, and the only person left is that one dev who hasn't updated their resume since 2006. The rest of us would rather code on a typewriter than touch that legacy spaghetti monster.

Oh, you're "self-taught"? *raises eyebrow skeptically* The internet trinity of knowledge silently judges your claim. Let's be honest—your "independent learning journey" was actually: 1. Copying Stack Overflow answers from Quora 2. Watching 47 YouTube tutorials at 2x speed 3. Frantically Googling error messages at 3AM Nobody becomes a developer in a vacuum. Your real teachers were these three digital uncles giving you that knowing look. The only truly original code you wrote was probably "Hello World"—and even then, you probably checked the syntax twice.

Congratulations! You've just spent 3 hours adding a hover effect to a button and now you're staring into the void like SpongeBob, questioning your life choices. That sweet dopamine hit from making a tiny UI element slightly fancier is all you need to convince yourself you've accomplished something today. Time to call it quits and tell the project manager you've "completed all assigned tasks" while conveniently forgetting about those 47 other tickets in your backlog.

VSCode just implemented the most accurate geolocation feature ever—detecting you're in Mexico and auto-applying the sepia filter for that authentic "Breaking Bad Mexico scene" experience! Next update: opening it in Russia turns everything grayscale, and Japan gets neon cyberpunk themes. The code doesn't care about your syntax errors anymore—it's too busy matching the aesthetic of your current latitude and longitude.

SWEET MERCIFUL CODE GODS! Someone actually wrote a bot that posts the EXACT SAME recycled jokes we see daily on r/ProgrammerHumor! 😱 This masterpiece of automation randomly selects from the greatest hits collection: "Linux > Windows," "JavaScript sucks," and my personal favorite "how to exit vim" (a question that has trapped developers in terminal purgatory since the dawn of time). The tragic part? This bot would ABSOLUTELY farm more karma than my actual coding projects. Why spend weeks building something useful when you can just scream "SEMICOLON MISSING" and watch the upvotes roll in? Programming culture is officially eating itself!

GASP! The absolute AUDACITY of these buildings! We've got rooms 403 and 405 staring us right in the face, but 404? NOWHERE TO BE FOUND! 💀 It's like the universe created the perfect real-life HTTP status code joke! For the uninitiated, 404 is the infamous error code that screams "PAGE NOT FOUND" when a website can't locate what you're desperately searching for. And here we are, searching for room 404 between 403 and 405, and it's LITERALLY NOT FOUND. The irony is so perfect it hurts my soul. Whoever designed this building deserves either a promotion or jail time - I haven't decided which!
