It Is Happening Again

Senior devs have this remarkable talent for forgetting their own code. First comes the righteous indignation ("WHO WROTE THIS CODE?"), then the escalating fury ("WHICH IDIOT WROTE THIS?"), followed by the team's gentle reminder that it was, in fact, their masterpiece. The final panel's silent "OH" captures that beautiful moment when you realize you're yelling at your past self. Git blame is truly the greatest humbler in software engineering.

That fleeting moment of joy when you find the perfect function in the docs, only to have your soul crushed in four stages of documentation grief. First comes hope, then the deprecation warning (which you ignore because it still works, right?), then the gut punch that it's completely gone, and finally the existential crisis when you realize the new API designers decided your use case wasn't worth supporting anymore. Nothing says "welcome to programming" like building your entire solution around a function that's secretly on death row.

The universal debugging strategy: code breaks, add a comment that changes absolutely nothing, suddenly works. That moment of existential dread when you realize you're not actually in control of your own code. The compiler is just letting you think you are. Quantum debugging - where observing the problem fixes it, but you'll never know why. Just back away slowly and don't make eye contact with the codebase.

When faced with a choice between proper debugging tools and littering your code with print statements, the red button wins every time. It's like choosing between a surgical scalpel and a sledgehammer for brain surgery, yet somehow we all default to the sledgehammer. The dopamine hit from seeing console.log("made it here") is just too powerful to resist. Sure, debuggers exist, but why use sophisticated tools when you can turn your terminal into an unreadable wall of text?
