CSS Color Names

The expectation vs. reality of CSS color names! Three menacing dragons labeled "red", "green", and "blue" look absolutely terrifying, while the fourth one labeled "grey" is derping out with its tongue sticking out. Meanwhile, "darkred", "darkgreen", "darkblue", and "darkgrey" are just slightly more saturated versions of the same colors. Frontend devs know the pain of trying to explain to clients why "lightsalmon" and "papayawhip" are legitimate color options but we can't just have a sensible naming convention. Thanks W3C, very cool.

The Job Description Multiverse

The classic tech recruiter bait-and-switch in its natural habitat! First they post for a fullstack React dev, then suddenly it's a desktop app, then just frontend, and finally—surprise!—they want a React Native mobile expert. And companies wonder why they can't find "qualified" candidates when they're playing job description roulette. It's like ordering a pizza and getting mad when the sushi chef can't make you tacos.

The Great Fried Egg Restoration Crisis

Ah, the classic Opera GX saga of the 18KB fried egg! First they proudly announce removing this random egg image to save precious kilobytes, then immediately add it back because users revolted. This is peak software development - spend hours optimizing code, shave off a few KB, and then discover users are more attached to the random Easter egg than your performance improvements. Nothing says "modern web development" quite like fighting over 18KB in a world of multi-gigabyte downloads. Meanwhile, Chrome is sitting in the corner consuming 8GB of RAM while judging everyone.

Stop People Stealing Website Images: The Escalating Madness

The evolution of image protection from amateur hour to galaxy brain: First stage: "Let's disable right-click!" - the digital equivalent of putting a 'Do Not Touch' sign on a cookie jar. Cute. Second stage: "I'll detect dev tools!" Because surely no one would ever use a second device to take a photo of their screen. Revolutionary thinking there. Third stage: The convoluted PNG-video-DRM-EME pipeline. Six meetings, three sprints, and a product manager's career highlight to implement. Final stage: The ultimate overkill - capturing user clicks to dynamically regenerate encrypted frames. Because nothing says "reasonable solution" like burning a server farm to protect your stock photos. Meanwhile, users just press Print Screen and move on with their lives.
