The Full Stack Illusion

Ah yes, the Y10K problem - the sequel nobody asked for! Future devs will be sobbing in their space pods because some genius in 2023 thought "four digits ought to be enough for anybody." Imagine having to refactor billions of lines of legacy code across the galaxy because nobody considered humans might still be writing terrible code 8,000 years from now. The exhausted expression says it all - "I could've been a space poet, but instead I'm patching date formats on Martian ATMs." History repeats itself, just with more digits.

This meme perfectly captures the existential dread of asking a senior developer about their non-existent documentation. You approach them like Oliver Twist begging for gruel, only to be met with the classic "my code is self-explanatory" defense. The senior dev genuinely believes their cryptic variable names and 200-line functions "make perfect sense" while you're left wondering if you're the problem. Spoiler alert: you're not. The documentation is in their head, and they've convinced themselves that telepathy is an industry standard skill.
