Skip Code Review, Enjoy The Chaos

Ah, the classic semicolon joke! The candidate isn't talking about martial arts—they're referencing their ability to debug code by adding that crucial semicolon that fixes everything. After 15 years in tech, I've seen countless bugs solved by a single character. The second time they say "I can do Karate;" they've added a semicolon, which in programming languages like JavaScript, C++, or Java is how you terminate statements. It's basically saying "My superpower is finding the missing semicolon that's breaking your entire codebase." Trust me, that's a more valuable skill than breaking boards with your hands.

Ah, the "productivity tool" that's just sharp enough to slice through your will to live but not quite sharp enough to actually help you code faster. Management's idea of innovation is handing developers a knife when what they really need is time and proper requirements. But hey, at least now you can efficiently cut through the mounting pile of technical debt while simultaneously stabbing your productivity in the back!

Content Realizing that the program you're debugging changes behavior when you have print statements

Content When you compile a script for the first time and it runs with O warnings and O errors If God exists, it's fucking me.

When VS Code decides it's had enough of your spaghetti functions and infinite loops. That error message might be fake, but the feeling is painfully real. Every developer knows that moment when your editor might as well just say "I give up" instead of pointing out the actual syntax error on line 347. The only thing missing is VS Code slowly clapping while it watches you struggle through your 5th refactor attempt.
