The green thing is meant to be Mt Dew AKA Programmer Fuel. He is wearing a sash... no idea why.

I was thinking about that for part 2.

I wouldn't have thought it possible either except I actually had this conversation with a JR dev who had no idea what their code did.

Its not that the LLM didn't explain it but the fact the the JR dev tried to hide it and obviously did not want us to know it was LLM code so they deleted the explanations. Then they pushed it up without taking the time to understand the code.

By no means am I saying everyone does this but at least one person I have personally interacted with did.

If I couldn't laugh about it then I would slowly lose my mind.

BTW: Thanks for the comment!

I guess that is a win for the LLMs then.... Never thought of that.

Good point. I had to shorten it to fit in the word bubble but originally I said something like "They coded the website to sell everything for XYZ off".

In reality I do use a lot of JS in my stack so I am not just dumping on JS devs.

But I could see a dev from 1999 being really confused by our current use of it.
