Just Hard Reset It

The eternal law of debugging: spend 80 hours hunting down an elusive bug, only for some random player to stumble upon it within seconds of launching your game. It's like the milk boiling over principle—the moment you step away from watching it, chaos erupts. Your code behaves perfectly during 147 test runs until the exact moment someone important is watching. The universe runs on spite and compiler tears.

First you hate LaTeX with its bizarre syntax and formatting quirks. Then you reluctantly try it. Next thing you know, you're completely entranced by those perfectly typeset equations and bibliographies that actually work. It's the Stockholm syndrome of document preparation systems. You start screaming at it, then you're eating out of its hand, and finally you're staring dreamily into space wondering how you ever lived without those beautiful kerned mathematical symbols.

That moment when you've consumed 7 energy drinks, questioned your career choices, and blamed the compiler, only to discover you've been using = instead of == the entire time. Those bloodshot eyes aren't from staring at the screen—they're from the soul-crushing realization that you wasted 4 hours of your life because you couldn't type a second equals sign. The best part? You'll absolutely do it again next week.

When your neural network confidently labels a cat as a dog, but everyone's freaking out about the AI apocalypse. Look, I've been training models for 15 years, and I can assure you the biggest threat isn't Skynet—it's that production code written at 3 AM with no code review. The real uprising will start when my model can correctly identify my cat and remember to order cat food when I'm running low. Until then, we're safe from the robot overlords... probably.

The true cost of 15 years of staring at monitors finally revealed! That neck brace isn't a fashion statement—it's the inevitable hardware upgrade every senior dev receives after countless hours of debugging nested callbacks and fixing CSS alignment issues. The cat's thousand-yard stare perfectly captures the existential dread of maintaining legacy code while claiming to be "fullstack." Pro tip: for every year of development experience, invest in one vertebrae-supporting device. Your spine's git history can't be rebased!

Content The six steps of debugging: 1) That can't happen. 2) That doesn't happen on my machine. 3) That shouldn't happen. 4) Why does that happen? 5) Oh, I see. 6) How did that ever work? Yesterday I reached step 6
