A man sitting at his desk has hundreds of pieces of paper streaming from the screen into his face. The wording says, Email Dead 2: BCC You won't see them coming

From Friday, the 31st of October, TWiQ or Treat, this week in quality session. I told a horror story of triggering emails that wouldn't stop coming. What was supposed to be one was thousands. We came up with horror story names like this one in the session, and Judy Mosley suggested turning them into memes. This one is from Demi.

Cartoon drawing of an elderly man angrily shaking his fist at the sky, yelling “MUI!!!!!” The expression and raised fist convey frustration, humorously representing irritation over a software upgrade.

Image inspired by This Week in Quality, after sharing the story of our latest upgrade to MUI. They remove the test-ids in production. Why???

Inspired by Judy Mosley's scary story today on TWiQ!

A cartoon-style meme featuring a blonde elf character pointing at a smiling orange worm. The top text reads: “SELF-SPREADING WORM IN AI EXTENSIONS?” The worm has a speech bubble saying: “NOT ELF – SELF!!” Below, bold text says: “GREAT, NOW MALWARE IS DOING CONTINUOUS INTEGRATION TOO.”

A self-spreading malware called GlassWorm has infected OpenVSX and one VSCode extension (cline-ai-main.cline-ai-agent v3.1.3), enabling it to propagate across systems and steal data. This supply chain attack highlights vulnerabilities in extension ecosystems and raises concerns about security in AI-driven development workflows.

I kept hearing in my head "Elf spreading worm" for some reason.

With graphics of a person, lightbulb, brain and graphs it says, AI cannot replace these, then lists, critical thought, genuine empathy, true innovation, entreprenurial vision, emotional intelligence, calculated risk-taking, ethical judgement, human intuition.

Based on a discussion earlier in the year (2025) about all the things AI will replace. I pointed out a few things it couldn't replace or do. This image was created so I could share it and prompt some more thoughts.

A three-panel comic titled “The Art of Bugfixing” by Geek & Poke. In each panel, two cartoon programmers stand side by side facing a computer monitor. In the first two panels, they quietly look at the screen. In the third panel, one suddenly shouts, “DON’T LOOK AT THE SCREEN!!!!” The caption below reads, “How to debug Heisenbugs,” humorously referring to software bugs that disappear when observed.

Cartoon meme - adapted -  to say: Tester: "how do I become and expert like you?", "how do i learn all the answers?" Judy/QE: "start by worrying less about the answers, and focus more on whether you're asking the right questions"

I just love all things Judy, "Judy love"'s Qs.

AI will replace testers?
Meanwhile, it can’t even click the right button.

An image of the movie Braveheart with the text ‘they can take our jobs but they can never take our em dashes’

I may be ever-so-slightly upset that my beloved em dash has become a hallmark of AI-generated writing…
