The Sacred "Don't Touch That Code" Doctrine

The thousand-yard stare of someone who's survived COBOL, Fortran, and that one codebase from 1997 that nobody dares to touch. Senior devs don't just understand legacy code—they were forged in its fires, back when documentation was a sticky note and version control meant making a copy called "final_FINAL_v2_ACTUALLY_FINAL.txt". They don't fear the spaghetti; they've eaten it for breakfast for decades.

Content luciferlaughs Scientists have discovered how to make glow-in-the-dark cats by inserting the jellyfish genes that create fluorescent proteins into feline eggs. IS wordswithkittywitch I needed to check that this was real, and apparently, it is. What's more, the end goal in these experiments was to fight feline AIDS, creating glow-in-the-dark cats was a side effect. That might be the greatest sentence I write this year. supersciencegeek Ok, so the short version is that scientists want to insert a Useful Gene. But they have no way of knowing if the Useful Gene actually got incorporated into the cat's (or other animal's) DNA. So they glue the Glow Gene to the Useful Gene. If the animal glows, both genes got inserted successfully.

Ah yes, the classic "programming languages are for humans" revelation that hits like a truck when you've been staring at assembly code for 12 hours straight. The bus driver's threat perfectly captures that senior dev energy when explaining to newbies why we need syntax highlighting, proper indentation, and comments. Meanwhile, somewhere a C++ developer is writing code that looks like someone headbutted the keyboard, muttering "it's perfectly readable" while their coworkers silently update their resumes.

Nothing says "I'm having a fantastic day" quite like spending three hours navigating through 25-step deployment processes just to change a single button's text. Enterprise apps: where simple tasks require committee approval, seven different environments, and a blood sacrifice to the legacy code gods. The best part? When you finally reach step 17, you realize you forgot to update a config file back at step 3. Pure. Developer. Bliss.
