Getting Errors Is Success

Oh. My. GOD. The ABSOLUTE ROYALTY that is a C++ developer after shaving off a microscopic 100 nanoseconds from their code! 👑 They're strutting around like they're literal ARISTOCRACY while everyone else must bow to their optimization genius. Never mind that a nanosecond is one BILLIONTH of a second and no human could possibly perceive this difference. But darling, in the C++ world, those 100 nanoseconds might as well be an ETERNITY! The developer has now earned the right to look down upon the peasants who dare use interpreted languages. *dramatic hair flip*

Looking at this dependency graph is like watching a murder mystery where every header file is both a victim and a suspect. The C++ include nightmare on full display here—a tangled web that would make even the most hardened senior dev reach for the whiskey drawer. Circular dependencies, cascading includes, and enough arrows to start a small archery business. And somewhere in this mess, a junior dev is about to add another header file and bring the whole 45-minute compile time to its knees. Remember kids, this is why we have forward declarations and precompiled headers. But who am I kidding? We'll all be debugging this spaghetti next sprint anyway.

The AUDACITY of finding a typo in documentation! There you are, struggling with some obscure API for 3 hours, and suddenly—GASP—you spot it! That missing semicolon or misspelled parameter that's been RUINING YOUR LIFE! The pure VINDICATION of knowing it wasn't your fault all along! You transform into a documentation vigilante, pointing at the error like it personally insulted your entire coding ancestry. Time to screenshot this bad boy and share it with your team with the most passive-aggressive "interesting documentation" message humanly possible.

The brutal honesty of career choices summed up in one confession. Started coding because it seemed cool, stayed because I'm too deep in the tech debt to escape now. That moment when you realize your GitHub commits are basically digital breadcrumbs leading to your slow descent into Stack Overflow dependency. Seven years and four frameworks later, still googling basic syntax and pretending it's normal. The only difference between junior and senior devs? Seniors know which errors to ignore.
