Rounded Corners Before Rounded Bellies

Look at these American cloud giants getting the Toy Story treatment. After years of Stockholm syndrome relationships with AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure, European dev teams are finally having their "Jessie moment." Nothing says "I've reconsidered our toxic relationship" like migrating to Hetzner after your AWS bill suddenly includes a 25% tariff surcharge. Sure, the documentation might be in German, but it's still more comprehensible than Lambda's pricing structure. Scaleway doesn't have 47 different database options? Good. I didn't understand the difference between the last 46 anyway.

Seeking the answer to parsing HTML with regex is like waiting for divine wisdom that never comes. 7.5*10^6 years later (that's longer than Earth has existed), and the computer's still thinking... because there IS no good answer. The punchline? Using regex to parse HTML is fundamentally flawed. HTML is a context-free grammar while regex is a regular expression - mathematically incapable of handling nested structures properly. It's like trying to eat soup with a fork - theoretically possible if you're desperate enough, but there are proper tools for that (like actual HTML parsers). The comic brilliantly captures the eternal wait for a solution that doesn't exist. Some problems in programming aren't meant to be solved - they're meant to be avoided entirely.

The eternal struggle of our people. Just like vampires hiss at sunlight and Superman cowers from kryptonite, programmers recoil in horror at light-themed IDEs. Twenty years in this industry and I've never met a senior dev who willingly uses light mode. Our eyes have evolved to thrive in the darkness of basement offices and midnight debugging sessions. White backgrounds? That's for interns and management who code once a year. The rest of us prefer our screens like our coffee - dark and keeping us alive through questionable life choices.
