Why reinvent the wheel with AI when you can participate in the grand tradition of code inheritance? The sacred lineage of copy-pasting that traces back to the original Stack Overflow prophets. Sure, AI might generate something "original," but there's an undeniable elegance to using code that's been battle-tested through generations of theft. It's not plagiarism—it's vintage sourcing with historical significance. The circle of code life continues, and somewhere, an Indian tech specialist is silently nodding in approval while their solution powers half the internet.

The first three years follow the standard tech career trajectory—modest starting salary, asking for a raise, job hopping for better pay. Then comes the plot twist: getting hit by a Google bus and receiving a $35.67M settlement, before returning to the grind with a promotion worth $146K. Turns out the fastest path to wealth in Silicon Valley isn't stock options or founding a startup—it's carefully timing your morning commute near the Google campus.

The hierarchy of suffering in CS specializations perfectly captured in Toy Story scenes: Cybersecurity and Game Design students? Living the Buzz Lightyear dream - endless identical clones, mass-produced and overconfident. "To infinity and beyond!" (aka "I'll be making six figures right after graduation!") Operating Systems students? That's Woody with the maniacal grin. Sure, they're dealing with kernel panics and memory management, but they're still maintaining their sanity... barely. But those poor souls specializing in Compilers? Straight to the lava pit of despair. They're drowning in parsing algorithms, abstract syntax trees, and the existential dread that comes with implementing a lexer from scratch. Not even the garbage collector can save them from this hell.

The clock shows actual array indices instead of spelled-out numbers. Because why waste precious database space storing "seven" when you could just store 7 and let the frontend figure it out? This is what happens when the database optimization team gets to design the UI. Next up: replacing all button labels with enum values to save a few bytes. Your users will adapt.
