Works All The Time (On Desktop Only)

The secret anti-aging formula they don't want you to know about: stop programming. Nothing ages you faster than debugging someone else's spaghetti code at 3 AM while chugging your fifth energy drink. The before picture shows a young developer (26.420% sure its Musk) in 1999, already showing signs of premature aging from all those PayPal all-nighters. Fast forward to 2020, and the man (99.6969% sure its Musk) has clearly delegated all coding tasks to junior devs. That's the real 10x developer move - not writing code, but avoiding it entirely.

The eternal struggle of modern development: StackOverflow tells you that you're absolutely wrong (with bonus downvotes and snarky comments), while ChatGPT cheerfully validates your terrible code that will probably explode in production. It's like choosing between the brutally honest friend who makes you cry and the yes-man who encourages you to wear that hideous outfit to an interview. The truth is somewhere in between, but who has time for nuance when you're trying to fix that bug before the deadline?

The classic "I'm basically a developer now" phase strikes again! Someone downloaded Cursor (a coding-focused text editor) and immediately declared themselves an engineer. Their groundbreaking achievement? Running a local development server and sharing the legendary localhost:3000 link like they've created the next Facebook. Reminds me of that time my nephew installed Python and started calling himself a "machine learning specialist." The localhost link is essentially showing their friend a website that only exists on their own computer - like inviting someone to a party at your house but not giving them your address.

So "vibecoding" means staring at 2FA screens all day instead of actual code. Revolutionary. Nothing says "future of programming" like constantly typing in verification codes because your session expired while you were getting coffee. The real innovation is how they've replaced syntax errors with "invalid code, please try again" messages.

Auto-save feature? That's cute. Real developers have developed a nervous twitch that makes them hit Ctrl+S with the precision of an atomic clock. It's not paranoia if your IDE has actually betrayed you before. The relationship between a programmer and the save shortcut is more committed than most marriages - till blue screen do us part. Trust issues? No, just experience backed by the ghosts of unsaved code that still haunt our dreams.

Somewhere in an alternate universe, browser makers actually considered user experience over ad revenue. Imagine a world where you set your cookie preferences ONCE instead of clicking "Reject All" 47 times per day like some deranged cookie-hating woodpecker. But no—that would be too convenient. The suits had a good laugh about that one before going back to their champagne and "innovative monetization strategies." Meanwhile, the rest of us are trapped in cookie banner hell, our fingers developing repetitive strain injuries from declining tracking on the same sites we visited yesterday.
