What I Tell Myself On A Bad Day

SWEET MOTHER OF INPUT VALIDATION! The absolute CRIME SCENE that is this phone number field! Some developer had the AUDACITY to create a slider—A SLIDER!!!—for entering a phone number! The poor user is forced to play "Price is Right" with their own contact information, dragging that cursor pixel by excruciating pixel to reach their digits! Whoever designed this UI monstrosity deserves to spend eternity debugging Internet Explorer 6 compatibility issues with nothing but print statements. This is why we can't have nice things in tech! The designer deserves not just firing, but a special circle of developer hell where all form inputs are controlled by interpretive dance!

Congrats on escaping the corporate prison! Now you're in a self-imposed solitary confinement with no weekends, no benefits, and a boss who never stops pushing deadlines (it's you). That dream of making the next Stardew Valley quickly transforms into debugging collision detection at 3AM while your Steam backlog grows and your social life withers. The irony of trading 40 hours of structured misery for 168 hours of chaotic passion is just *chef's kiss*. But hey, at least your commute is shorter and pants are optional.

Behold, the "ML Engineer" who discovered that Python sorts strings alphabetically instead of numerically! The horror! Next breaking news: water is wet. What we're witnessing here is the classic "I didn't read the docs but it's definitely the language's fault" syndrome. Python's sorted() is working perfectly—it's sorting ["9%", "83%", "25%"] as strings, exactly as it should when you give it strings. Pro tip for our aspiring "ML Engineer": try sorted([int(x.strip('%')) for x in a]) next time. Or maybe stick to Excel?

Silent programmer staring intensely at the screen... Object-oriented languages promised us a beautiful world of reusable components, inheritance hierarchies, and elegant abstractions. Meanwhile, half of us are still trying to figure out why our getter methods are returning undefined and why everything breaks when we touch that one class that somehow connects to 47 other classes. The deafening silence in response to "SCREAM IF YOU LOVE OBJECT ORIENTED LANGUAGES" is the most honest code review I've ever seen.
