The philosophical horror of maintaining legacy code summarized perfectly. What starts as a quick ticket to "just fix one small bug" turns into an existential crisis when you realize the code was written by someone who left the company 8 years ago and apparently coded while having a stroke. Soon you're the one staring back from the void, muttering "it works, don't touch it" to the next poor soul. Nietzsche would've been a great tech lead. He'd understand why we add comments like "// Don't delete this or everything breaks. I don't know why."

Introducing the revolutionary "Grok 4" – where version control is just a suggestion and your entire codebase fits in a single text file! 🔥 Just imagine the sheer efficiency of debugging 10,000 lines of code by scrolling frantically through a single document. Who needs Git when you can just attach your entire life's work as "all_code.txt" and pray nothing gets corrupted? The best part? You can "implement features in 5 seconds" – which is exactly how long it'll take before your colleagues start plotting your mysterious disappearance. Modern problems require ancient solutions!
