The Mythical Production-Only Bug

The special kind of existential dread when you discover a bug that only manifests in production. Your test environment? Perfect. Local dev? Flawless. But deploy that code and suddenly your meticulously crafted masterpiece transforms into a dumpster fire. It's that moment when you realize you'll be spending the next 12 hours frantically trying to reproduce an issue that technically "doesn't exist" in any environment where you can actually debug it. Bonus pain points if it's Friday afternoon!

This is basically the difference between looking before you leap and leaping before you look. After 15 years of coding, I still occasionally make this mistake and then stare at my monitor with the same expression as that coyote.

Session Cannot Have Ass

VS Code just delivered the most savage code review in history. When your editor straight-up terminates your session because your code quality is so bad, you know it's time to reconsider your life choices. The irony of Microsoft's premier IDE just giving up on you is peak developer humiliation. That moment when even your tools are like "nope, I refuse to participate in this atrocity." Just imagine explaining to your team lead: "I can't push my commit because VS Code deemed it unworthy of existence."
