I'm Not Exaggerating

You're out here debugging your game's collision detection, zooming in with your metaphorical telescope trying to figure out why bullets are phasing through enemies like they're ghosts. Is it the hitbox? The timing? The physics engine being moody? Meanwhile, the actual problem is sitting right under your nose: enemy collision on a second layer. Classic game dev moment where you're investigating quantum mechanics when the issue is just that your enemies are literally on a different Z-layer and can't interact with anything. It's like trying to figure out why your keys are missing when they're in your other pocket the whole time.

Discord literally had to implement a self-destruct feature because it was eating so much RAM that it became a liability. When your app is such a memory hog that you need to add a "restart before I crash the entire system" failsafe, maybe—just maybe—wrapping a website in Chromium wasn't the best architectural decision. The fact that 4GB is the threshold tells you everything. That's more RAM than entire operating systems used to need. But hey, at least Discord is self-aware enough to restart itself. Most Electron apps just sit there, bloated and unrepentant, slowly consuming your system resources like a digital black hole until you manually kill them. Fun fact: Each Electron app bundles its own copy of Chromium. So if you're running Discord, Slack, VS Code, and Spotify simultaneously, congratulations—you're running four separate browsers just to use what could've been native apps or actual websites.

Ah yes, the ancient programmer tradition of naming variables like you're being charged by the character. "Why use 'playerCharacterPosition' when 'pcp' works?" they say, while their IDE helpfully autocompletes it anyway. The melting yellow creature perfectly captures that internal meltdown when someone suggests using descriptive variable names. "But my fingers will get tired from all that typing that the computer does for me!" Meanwhile, six months later, nobody remembers what 'plobjcaracy' was supposed to mean, including the person who wrote it.
