It Works On My Machine Isn't Enough

The stark contrast between how artists and programmers interact is painfully accurate. Artists dance around with false modesty while programmers just openly roast each other's code and nod in agreement. Nothing builds camaraderie in tech quite like mutual acknowledgment that your codebase is a dumpster fire. It's not self-deprecation if it's objectively true. The real programming interview question should be "how comfortable are you with someone calling your life's work 'the worst f***ing code they've ever seen' and you just replying 'yep, sounds about right'?"

That heart-stopping moment when muscle memory betrays you. Casually hitting Ctrl+C to copy text, only to realize you're in the terminal and just killed your process with the SIGINT signal. Your unsaved work? Gone. Your carefully crafted command? Terminated. Your dignity? Completely evaporated. The worst part is knowing you'll absolutely do it again next week.

Content Sheldon Chang sysop408sfba.social This is hilarious. It appears that Twitter is DDOSing itself. The Twitter home feed's been down for most of this morning. Even though nothing loads, the Twitter website never stops trying and trying. In the first video, notice the error message that I'm being rate limited. Then notice the jiggling scrollbar on the right. The second video shows why it's jiggling. Twitter is firing off about 10 requests a second to itself to try and fetch content that never arrives because Elon's latest genius innovation is to block people from being able to read Twitter without logging in. This likely created some hellish conditions that the engineers never envisioned and so we get this comedy of errors resulting in the most epic of self-owns, the self-DDOS. Unbelievable.

Ah, the classic programmer character development arc! First panel: horrified at your week-old spaghetti code. Second panel: the redemption twist where you realize that being disgusted by your past code is actually a sign of growth. It's like your code is secretly training you through shame. "What kind of sleep-deprived monster wrote this garbage? Oh wait... it was me last Tuesday." The ability to recognize your past mistakes is the true power-up sequence. The real plot twist? Six months from now, you'll look at today's "improved" code with the same horror. It's the circle of dev life.
