The Ultimate Developer Power Trip

Forget money and status—the true rush of power comes from swooping in like a coding superhero and fixing someone else's broken code. Nothing says "I am superior" quite like finding that missing semicolon they spent three hours looking for. The psychological high of saying "Oh, it was just a simple logic error" while they stare at you in awe is better than any promotion. You're not just fixing code; you're establishing dominance in the most passive-aggressive way possible. It's basically the programmer equivalent of marking your territory.
