CSS Crimes: Worse Than Murder

GASP! The tragic romance that could never be! Visual Studio Code and JetBrains IDEs - separated by subscription fees and keyboard shortcuts that would make Shakespeare weep! Their love is doomed from the start! He, a free-spirited VS Code boy with his extensions and open-source charm. She, a sophisticated JetBrains girl with her premium features and superior code completion. Their families (Microsoft and JetBrains) would NEVER approve! Developers around the world are forced to choose sides in this heart-wrenching IDE war. The RAM usage alone would destroy any computer brave enough to run them both simultaneously! A modern tragedy in silicon and syntax! 💔

Someone who can center a div both vertically AND horizontally without Googling it is basically a mythical creature. Frontend devs have been battling this since the dawn of CSS, cycling through margin auto, flexbox, grid, absolute positioning with transforms, and probably a blood sacrifice or two. The fact that it requires clarification of both axes just adds insult to injury. Flexbox finally made this trivial, but the trauma runs deep. We all still whisper about the dark days of table layouts and vertical-align: middle that never worked.

When VS Code walks by, all other IDEs become invisible. The eternal struggle of a developer with wandering eyes – loyal to your current IDE setup but always checking out what's shiny and new. Sure, PyCharm, IntelliJ, and WebStorm have their perks, but that blue VS Code icon just hits different. It's like being in a committed relationship but still turning your head when the hot text editor walks by. The struggle is real .

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of tech recruiters expecting you to be a full-stack developer, DevOps engineer, database administrator, AND UX designer all rolled into one mythical unicorn creature! 🦄 They're out here posting job listings that require you to master 17 different technologies spanning from backend databases to frontend frameworks, PLUS Kubernetes orchestration, with 10+ years experience in a framework that was released 3 years ago! And all for the generous salary of "competitive" (read: barely covers your coffee addiction). The brutal truth? They have NO IDEA what these technologies actually do or how they relate. They just copy-paste buzzwords from other job listings and call it a day. Honey, Postgres and React are not interchangeable skills - they're from completely different UNIVERSES! 💅
