I Wish All CMake Fans A Very Pleasant Documentation Not Found

The programming language family drama we never asked for but definitely deserve! Your crush codes in Python (easy, flexible, popular), but her dad is a C++ veteran (strict, powerful, intimidating). Meanwhile, her brother's over there with Java (corporate, verbose), and her crush is into Rust (modern, safe, hipster-approved). And there's you... coding in Brainfuck, the programming equivalent of communicating exclusively through hieroglyphics and morse code combined. Nothing says "I'm technically brilliant but make questionable life choices" quite like mastering a language made of nothing but plus signs, brackets, and dots. The dating pool in computer science just got exponentially more complicated!

When your code compiles but the warnings are straight-up screaming at you. That's not a warning, that's a full intervention! Four yellow triangles of doom from Clang-Tidy telling you your collision code is a mess. The compiler's basically saying "I'll run it, but I'm judging you the entire time." Classic C++ developer moment – ignoring warnings like they're emails from HR about proper documentation practices.

When your code has that perfect edge case that makes Schrödinger jealous. Scoring exactly 85% means you've simultaneously failed AND passed according to the logic. The computer's just doing what it was told - executing both conditions because nobody thought to use <= instead of <. This is why we can't have nice things in software development. The compiler doesn't care about your feelings or your GPA.

The duality of programmer brain function is hilariously accurate here. For regular variables, it's absolute chaos - fighting over whether to use temp , result , or just mash the keyboard with myVar . But for iteration variables? The council has convened and unanimously decreed: "We shall use 'i' and nothing else." The formal ceremony of loop counter naming has remained unchanged since the ancient days of FORTRAN. Bonus points if you graduate to j for nested loops while feeling incredibly sophisticated.

Forget relationships. The true ecstasy in life is when your memory debugging tool confirms zero leaks in your code. That sweet, sweet message "All heap blocks were freed -- no leaks are possible" hits different than any romantic confession ever could. While normies get excited about dinner dates, programmers experience pure bliss from proper memory management. It's the programming equivalent of a clean drug test, except you're actually proud of the achievement.

The entire tech industry is just a skyscraper of abstractions built on C. Modern developers happily live in their fancy penthouses of JavaScript frameworks and cloud services, blissfully unaware that some grumpy 70-year-old's pointer arithmetic from 1972 is keeping the lights on. One memory leak in that legacy C code and your Docker container orchestration falls faster than my will to live during a production outage.
