I Did The Thing

Content -ASKING AIRCRAFT DESIGNERS ABOUT AIRPLANE SAFETY: NOTHING IS EVER FOOLPROOF, BUT MODERN AIRLINERS ARE. INCREDIBLY RESILIENT. FLYING IS THE SAFEST WAY TO TRAVEL. ASKING BUILDING ENGINEERS ABOUT ELEVATOR SAFETY: ELEVATORS ARE PROTECTED BY MULTIPLE TRIED-AND-TESTED FAILSAFE MECHANISMS. THEY'RE NEARLY INCAPABLE OF FALLING. - ASKING SOFTWARE ENGINEERS ABOUT COMPUTERIZED VOTING: THAT'S TERRIFYING. WAIT, REALLY? DON'T TRUST VOTING SOFTWARE AND DON'T LISTEN TO ANYONE WHO TELLS YOU IT'S SAFE. WHY? I DON'T QUITE KNOW HOW TO PUT THIS, BUT OUR ENTIRE FIELD IS BAD AT WHAT WE DO, AND IF YOU RELY ON US, EVERYONE WILL DIE. THEY SAY THEY'VE FIXED IT WITH SOMETHING CALLED "BLOCKCHAIN. AAAAA!!! WHATEVER THEY SOLD YOU, DON'T TOUCH IT. BURY IT IN THE DESERT. WEAR GLOVES.

Ah, the unmistakable signature of a junior developer's code comments! That stop sign with the helpful clarification "THIS IS A STOP SIGN" perfectly captures the redundant commenting style that senior devs silently judge. It's like writing i++; // increments i by 1 or // The following function calculates the sum right above a function literally named calculateSum() . The code review gods weep silently as another obvious comment gets committed to the repo. Self-documenting code? Never heard of her.

Ah, the fantasy world where game development is just a few magical method calls! If only .ForEachBug(Bug::AutoFix) existed in real life instead of the 3 AM debugging sessions where you question your career choices. And that .GetWishlists(target: 7000) method? Pure delusion. Real gamedevs know that getting 7 wishlists already feels like winning the lottery, let alone 7000. The only accurate part is game.Release() - which is indeed followed by immediate regret, panic, and the discovery of 47 new bugs your QA team somehow missed.

The real punchline here isn't about actual drugs—it's about the soul-crushing journey from bright-eyed CS graduate to battle-worn developer. That 4.0 GPA means nothing when you're three sprints behind, surviving on caffeine, and debugging legacy code written by someone who clearly hated humanity. The transformation isn't from success to failure—it's from naïve optimism to the thousand-yard stare of someone who's seen one too many production outages at 2AM. Graduation vs five years of "we need this hotfix yesterday."
