When you spend four years grinding through data structures, algorithms, design patterns, and software architecture, only to end up as a glorified copy-paste middleman between an AI that writes better code than you and a production environment that's held together with duct tape and prayers. Your job? Making sure Claude's pristine, well-documented code doesn't immediately explode when it meets your company's legacy spaghetti.
The existential crisis hits different when you realize you're basically a QA tester for AI output. All those late nights debugging segfaults and memorizing Big O notation just to become a human linter. At least the pay is... wait, is it though?
