The evolution of a developer's naming conventions is a journey of madness. First, we start with the basic Sample.json - clean, simple, forgettable. Then we graduate to Customer_Request_Sample.json when we briefly remember documentation matters. But the final form? json.json - the naming equivalent of giving up completely while somehow making it worse. It's that special moment when you've stared at your code for so long that your brain has completely JSON-ified and you've lost all ability to create meaningful identifiers. The file extension IS the filename now. Checkmate, future me who needs to find this file!

The statement "C and C++ are perfect languages for building high-performance systems" is true. The statement "C and C++ aren't only some of the easiest programming languages" is false. So false it hurts. Like segmentation fault hurts. Anyone who calls C/C++ "easy" has either been coding since the 70s or enjoys manual memory management the way some people enjoy getting teeth pulled without anesthesia. Sure, they're blazing fast, but so is falling down a flight of stairs.

Ah, the pinnacle of frontend design! Nothing says "we care about user experience" quite like a date picker that requires you to assemble your birthday like a ransom note cut from different magazines. The month selector is having an existential crisis with "j", "nov", and "febr" trying to coexist with "octo", "em", and "uly". Meanwhile, the day field defaulted to zero because apparently being born on the 0th day of the month is totally a thing now. And let's not forget the year 1900 - perfect for all those 124-year-old users filling out your form. This is what happens when you tell the intern "just make it work" without code review.

The unwritten constitution of every production codebase: "If it works, don't touch it." Nothing captures the collective trauma of developers quite like the moment when you fix one bug and create seven more. We've all been there—staring at legacy code that's held together by duct tape and prayers, but somehow keeps the business running. The wisdom isn't just royal, it's universal. That fragile house of cards you call an application? Best to slowly back away and pretend you never saw those nested if-statements...
