One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison

Ah, the alternative definition of Oracle that database administrators whisper when license auditors aren't around. The company's licensing costs are so astronomical that you need venture capital funding just to run a "Hello World" query. Oracle DBAs don't have retirement plans—they just have Oracle license negotiation PTSD. The real database transaction is the money leaving your company account.

Wait...Did People Not Realize This?

Security Webdev Networking

Oh sweet summer child, you thought Incognito mode was actually private? Next you'll tell me you believe your smart fridge isn't judging your 3AM snack choices. The shock on people's faces when they discover Google's been tracking their "research" sessions this whole time is priceless. Incognito mode has always been the digital equivalent of wearing sunglasses to a bank robbery – it might make you feel invisible, but the security cameras still see everything. The only thing more shocking than Google collecting your "private" browsing data is that anyone actually believed the company that built its empire on knowing everything about everyone would just... not look. Right.

What's Stopping You From Coding Like This

The mythical "deadline-driven development environment." When your PM says "ship it yesterday" and you take it literally. This guy skipped the standing desk trend and went straight to sidewalk computing. He's either fixing a production bug at 3 AM or demonstrating the ultimate remote work setup. The best part? No office distractions, unlimited bathroom breaks (the whole world is your bathroom), and you can literally pass out after pushing to production. Extreme programming taken way too literally.

Holy C: The Divine Programming Language

When the textbook writers finally speak the truth! C truly is divine - created on the 8th day when Dennis Ritchie looked at assembly and said "let there be pointers." Meanwhile, C++ is apparently what happens when the programming gods have a rebellious phase. The memory management struggles are indeed a test of faith. Segmentation faults are just digital sins we must atone for.

Developer When They Finally Show Up To Fix Something They Themselves Broke

The duality of a developer's life in one perfect image. When you push that "totally fine" code to production on Friday and then get called in on Monday to fix the "mysterious" issues that somehow appeared out of nowhere. That smug stance says it all - "I got your distress call and came as quickly as I wanted to" - which translates to "I knew exactly what was broken because I'm the one who broke it, but I needed just enough time to pretend I had to investigate the problem." The hero and villain of your own story, strutting in to save the day from... yourself. Classic developer time management: break it at 4:59 PM, fix it at 10:30 AM after two coffees.

The Scroll Of Truth: Tabs Vs. Spaces

Ah, the eternal tabs vs. spaces war claims another victim! After 15 years of searching for divine wisdom, our green adventurer finally discovers the "Scroll of Truth" only to immediately yeet it into the ocean when it declares tabs superior. The real comedy is that developers will fight to the death over 4 invisible characters while completely ignoring actual code quality. It's like arguing about the proper way to arrange deck chairs on the Titanic while your codebase is the actual iceberg.

HTTP Status Codes: The Bathroom Edition

OH. MY. GOD. The bathroom saga of HTTP status codes is the DRAMA I never knew I needed! 💀 From the mundane 301 redirect (gotta pee somewhere else) to the catastrophic 500 internal server error (TENTACLE MONSTER IN THE TOILET?!), this is basically the restroom version of a horror film! And the 401 is MISSING because you need AUTHENTICATION to get in! Nobody gave you the bathroom pass, honey! Meanwhile, 402 is standing there like "Payment Required" with a velvet rope, acting like it's some exclusive club bathroom. THE AUDACITY. And don't get me started on 418 ("I'm a teapot")... like, sweetie, this is NOT the time for an identity crisis!

When Your AI Teacher Accidentally Shows Its Cheat Sheet

Someone's school just accidentally exposed the entire LLM prompt to students! The screenshot shows the system instructions for an AI teaching assistant that's supposed to give hints without providing full answers. It's literally telling the AI to say "Nice Job!" if answers are close and "Try Again!" if they're wrong. This is like catching your teacher with their answer key hanging out of their pocket. The digital equivalent of finding the "How to Pretend You're a Good Teacher" manual left open on the desk. Whoever configured this system just gave students a behind-the-scenes peek at how the AI sausage is made!

BREAKING NEWS: AI absolutely MASSACRES basic arithmetic while showing its work! The audacity of this machine to think that if someone is 70, and their sister was half their age when they were 6, she'd be 73 now?! HONEY, NO! The sister is 67! If she was 3 when you were 6, she's always going to be 3 years younger than you! The age gap doesn't magically change with time! This is why programmers still have job security—AI can't even handle elementary school math problems without making them unnecessarily complicated. And they want this thing driving our cars?! I CAN'T EVEN! 💀

The eternal language transition struggle, perfectly captured! C++ devs pick up Python like it's a vacation—suddenly no memory management, no pointers, and indentation actually matters? What a breeze! Meanwhile, Python devs trying C++ are basically attempting to swallow a shotgun. "What do you mean I have to manually free memory? SEGMENTATION FAULT AGAIN?!" Nothing says "welcome to C++" quite like contemplating your life choices at 3 AM while debugging a pointer error that shouldn't even exist.

AI Writes 30% Of The Code, 100% Of The Bugs

That didn't take long. Microsoft brags about AI writing 30% of their code while simultaneously announcing a classic Windows bug that would make even Windows Vista blush. Nothing says "cutting edge technology" like Task Manager refusing to close and spawning duplicates until your RAM begs for mercy. The future is here folks—it's just as buggy as the past, but now we can blame the robots. Guess that GitHub Copilot subscription is really paying off.

Sudo Install: When RAM Upgrades Get Physical

Ah, the classic Linux user's nightmare turned weapon. Someone took "sudo install" a bit too literally by turning RAM sticks into actual knives. When your sysadmin says they need to "forcefully upgrade your memory," you should probably run. This is what happens when tech support gets tired of explaining that "no, downloading more RAM isn't possible" and decides to take matters into their own hands. Physical memory installation has never been so terrifying.
