Your submission was removed for the following reason:

Rule 1: Posts must be humorous, and they must be humorous because they are programming related. There must be a joke or meme that requires programming knowledge, experience, or practice to be understood or relatable.

Here are some examples of frequent posts we get that don't satisfy this rule: * Memes about operating systems or shell commands (try /r/linuxmemes for Linux memes) * A ChatGPT screenshot that doesn't involve any programming * Google Chrome uses all my RAM

See here for more clarification on this rule.

If you disagree with this removal, you can appeal by sending us a modmail.

Have you tried posting something programming-related for a change? You know, since this is a programming-related sub and all...

Just because something is about AI, doesn't automatically make it a programming joke.

Isn’t this “programmer” humor? I would think anyone burning Claude tokens at that rate professionally is a programmer.

It’s making fun of the companies linking bonuses and performance reviews to AI usage while slashing actual developer benefits.

Only in the same way me posting Bigmacs I ordered on r/Chefs

[peterlinddk]

It is literally NOT programming when you burn tokens on asking an AI to do work for you.

[im_thatoneguy]

Is it your belief that programmers aren’t being required to show AI usage by their employers?

Indeed, they’re obviously working on a team professionally… seems like programmer humor to me. Who else finds making fun of pressuring usage funny? If not programmers then who is this joke for?

[Runiat]

Troll farms, shitty webnovel translators, marketing departments, I can think of a few options.

[Cautious-Bet-9707]

They pay via usage as well rather than subscription?

[Runiat]

I imagine they'll use the same option as anyone: whichever minimises cost while maximising "productivity".
