Then It Works

Junior dev: "Is it normal that the codebase is so difficult to work in?" Senior dev: *stares into the void with thousand-yard gaze* "Years of tight deadlines, changing requirements, and revolving door of developers creates this beautiful disaster. Successful software either dies a hero or lives long enough to become legacy code that you'll maintain until retirement."

Your inheritance won't be wealth—it'll be 15-year-old spaghetti code with comments like "TODO: fix this before release" from 2009.

Meanwhile, the true optimization psychopaths are counting individual CPU clock cycles like it's 1982. They're the ones rewriting entire functions in assembly just to save 3 cycles in a loop that runs twice a day. The difference between "fast enough" and "I need to know exactly how many nanoseconds each instruction takes."
