It’s not a pipeline. 2018 and 2025 guys either had 2014 guy killed or they ruined his life and forced him into suicide.
yes, different levels of maturity of the technology attract different profiles.

I wonder how somebody can completely miss their own message like this. Or maybe somebody made an original image and then a techbro made this AI slop as a duplicate to spite them.
I need it. I’ll pay for it even!!
People like 2025 guy have never held thoughts like the other 2, they were always self serving cunts. They just kept a facade till they depended on others, but once they joined the rich fucks club, they dropped the facade.
Beware the AI slop Pipeline
I’m so sick of seeing this exact fucking face and facial expression on everything. please just use ms paint to shoddily squiggle a matchstick man, at least it will have personality.
Ai slop
2030: By the implementation of AI, the orphan crushing machine can now process 35% more biomass per hour, providing a sustainable power source to our server parks
TIL there were no tech bros before 2014.
Hardstuck 2014. I’m not changing
Why is pipeline being used for everything now? This is progression. Not pipeline.
Devil’s advocate here, it could be metaphorically, pipeline implies that it is an unavoidable sequence, rather than a progression, which it is.
edit, I agree with the below that it is more of a replacement
Am I stupid? Idk what the hell this is trying to say
It’s not something that’s unique to tech, but I read it as a joke about enshittification due to greed.
Lots of start-up companies start out all idealistic and positive, then don’t stay true to that mission as the founders age and want more (or sell out to a bigger company).
I honestly think delusion is a core component of startup culture. There’s this energy of overly sincere rich kids who think they can make the world a better place by perpetuating a system of exploitation
It’s kinda tragic really
I do envy their ability to take such big risks though (often because they have money to fall back on, I assume).
I’ve never been in a position to take a risk like that without jeopardizing my (and now my family’s) future.
Oh yeah there’s definitely a joy to it. I think doing crazy things when your young and inspired is core experience in life. It’s a shame most people are in your position and can’t rely on the support of their community to fall back on if the risk fails
Also as an aside, if stock points cripples your integrity then you never had any to begin with
The feeling of power that being in the technology sector brings changes a man.
IDK what this meme is trying to say. Its making some leaps.
Rich billionaire assholes are ruining every industry. It’s not just the tech sector.
Sorry, but I feel 2014 should be replaced with 1980, 2018 should be replaced with 2000… Maybe 1990. But the whole monetisation thing started loooonngg before 2025.
I just listened to War is a Racket by General Smedley D Butler. It’s 40 minutes long and very insightful.
Bankers monetize the lives of soldiers to protect private investments. If they put a price on blood there’s nothing they won’t monetize.
Butler prevented the business plot from happening…now it’s happening.
