Someone's Snitching On IT's Secret Weapon

The graph perfectly captures the infamous "Dunning-Kruger effect" in tech mentorship. That poor intern is stuck at the peak of "Mount Stupid" - where knowing just enough HTML and a for-loop has them convinced they're ready to rewrite the company codebase in Rust. Meanwhile, their actual skills are hovering somewhere between "can center a div" and "accidentally deleted production database." The real tragedy? We've all been that intern, strutting around with confidence inversely proportional to our knowledge, until reality hits like a merge conflict in a monorepo. The graph doesn't show the inevitable next phase: crying in the server room while questioning every career choice.

The toughest developers who fearlessly debug production issues at 3 AM suddenly turn into trembling wrecks when faced with a global array full of zeros. Nothing strikes terror into a programmer's heart quite like stumbling upon someone else's undocumented global variables. Those zeros aren't just empty values—they're empty promises . Whatever story that code was supposed to tell has been wiped clean, leaving only the haunting structure behind. It's like finding a murder scene where the killer meticulously cleaned up all the evidence except for the chalk outline.

Ah, the classic "C/C++ is dead" narrative that's been circulating since approximately the Jurassic period. This meme perfectly captures the eternal resilience of C/C++ despite countless obituaries written by trendy language evangelists. Every few years, some shiny new language comes along promising to be the "C++ killer" - yet there's C/C++, smugly posing next to its own grave, refusing to die. Meanwhile, critical infrastructure, operating systems, game engines, and performance-critical applications are still running on these supposedly "ancient" languages. The smirk says it all: "Nice try, Rust/Go/whatever... I've been declared dead more times than a soap opera villain, and I'm still powering the world while you're trying to figure out your package manager."

The moment you realize your "quick question" has unleashed a coding apocalypse. That senior dev typing for 10+ minutes isn't crafting a simple yes/no – they're writing your obituary in documentation form. Nothing strikes fear into a developer's heart quite like watching those three typing dots continue past the 30-second mark. At that point, you're not getting an answer – you're getting an essay on why your approach is fundamentally flawed, complete with architectural diagrams and references to design patterns you've never heard of. Pro tip: If you see "senior dev is typing..." for more than 2 minutes, start updating your resume.
