Run It Again: The Most Scientific Debugging Method

debugging-memes, programming-memes, code-memes, errors-memes, compiling-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The universal debugging technique that shouldn't work but somehow does. When your code throws errors, make zero changes, hit run again, and suddenly it works flawlessly. The digital equivalent of blowing into a Nintendo cartridge. Computer science degrees cost $100k to teach you that sometimes the machine just needs a moment to think about what it did wrong.

Overreliance On LLMs

The modern developer's secret weapon: copy-pasting AI-generated code without understanding a single line of it. Nothing says "senior engineer" like frantically Googling what your own code does when someone asks about it. The best part? That magical moment when you realize you've been confidently deploying code that you've essentially been taking dictation on. "It validates form data" is just fancy speak for "I have absolutely no idea what this eldritch horror does but it hasn't crashed production yet."

Nothing As Permanent As A Temporary Solution

Ah yes, the classic "temporary solution" that somehow survives three system migrations, two CTO changes, and the heat death of the universe. That duct-taped code snippet from 2012 labeled "TODO: fix later" is now running critical infrastructure at Fortune 500 companies. The only thing more permanent than a temporary fix is the existential dread of the developer who has to maintain it.

The Humility Singularity

The one thing AI can do that humans can't: admit they're wrong without having an existential crisis first. After 15 years in tech, I've seen senior devs argue for hours defending broken code rather than just say "oops, my bad." Meanwhile, AI is over here like "You caught me! Let me fix that!" with zero ego damage. Maybe the real singularity isn't when machines get smarter than us, but when they get more emotionally mature.
