I remember when my dad was skeptical that I copied a game from my friend’s computer onto ours via floppy disk. “A game is too big nowadays to fit on a floppy,” he said. “Just you wait,” I said.
I had copied the shortcut from the desktop.
Oo! I have one for this! (Digs through meme collection.)
A classmate of mine once tried to copy MS PowerPoint by burning the desktop shortcut to CD.
That person either randomly wakes up at 4:00am thinking about that still to this day, or is a robot.
You have a promising future in middle management.

This is pretty impressive. Looks pixel for pixel what I’ve been building for months now.
I’m just sitting here looking at a screenshot of a Twitter post of a photo of a projection of a screenshot of someone else’s joke.
We saw this same joke template shortly after ChatGPT was a thing. Almost exact, but now with Fable. Fake bullshit, though good chance that the original was authentic. The internet sucks now.
The format is in its “LinkedIn viral” phase of life, so it should be fully dead soon
The next gen of Claude will just steal your CC info from Chrome and sign you up for an AWS free trial without your consent.
But hey, at least it’ll work, right?
You’re right! I did rack up $20,000 in AWS usage fees.
The only hope is that this bubble burst so badly and they will lose so much money that for years companies will shit their pants before trying anything new.

they’re gonna shit our pants again arent they
AI put the entire internet on my machine!
So looks like systems guys like me still have a job but the devs are screwed?

Only in the sense that it’s being used as a scapegoat for layoffs
oh 100% - but also:
- Stanford HAI’s 2026 AI Index found employment for software developers aged 22–25 fell nearly 20% since 2024, while employment for developers aged 30 and over continued growing. The entry-level ladder is being pulled up, not the whole building.

they are in for a surprise in 5-8 years, when they find these 30 yo ones don’t grow on trees…
Hasn’t this been happening for longer than that? Nobody wants to hire juniors if you can just poach them when they know how to do things
Most jobs lost to AI were not replaced by AI but cut so they could use their salaries to pay for more hardware.
is that a feeling or backed by data? losses are largely due to automation
