The Mysterious Self-Healing Code

Innocent newbie: "I'll just use array.sort() to sort these numbers!" JavaScript: *sorts lexicographically* "Did I stutter?" Nothing says "welcome to JavaScript" quite like discovering your numbers are being sorted as strings. That moment when you realize you need array.sort((a,b) => a-b) and question all your life choices that led you to web development. It's basically JavaScript's hazing ritual - "Oh, you thought programming would make sense? That's adorable."

The circle of developer suffering in its natural habitat! A senior dev who wrote incomprehensible code 15 years ago is now expected to implement shiny new business requirements using that same cryptic mess they created. Karma really is that colleague who remembers every bad decision you've ever made. Nothing quite like the horror of realizing that indecipherable spaghetti code with zero comments was actually written by... past you. The technical debt collector has arrived, and he's charging interest!

First panel: Developer screaming at TDD like it's some annoying piece of paper being shoved in their face. Second panel: Reluctantly takes a bite of Test-Driven Development. Third panel: Cautiously realizes it's not so bad. Fourth panel: Dreamy eyes - "Why did I fight this for so long? My code is actually... reliable now." The journey from "tests are a waste of time" to "I can't believe I ever coded without tests" happens to the best of us. Just takes one production catastrophe that could've been prevented with a simple test to see the light!

Ah yes, the classic family tech support paradox. Tell your relatives you work with computers and suddenly you're expected to resurrect their 12-year-old printer that's been possessed by demons since Windows Vista. The real million-dollar question isn't which coding title sounds fanciest on LinkedIn – it's which one will make your aunt stop asking you to fix her router during Thanksgiving dinner. Spoiler alert: none of them work. You could select "Quantum Entanglement Specialist" and they'd still hand you their phone saying "it's doing that thing again."
