Be Honest

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute HORROR of what this junior dev just confessed! 😱 Changing your Git config to impersonate your senior devs and then pushing a bug to production?! That's not just coding crime—that's a full-blown IDENTITY THEFT CATASTROPHE! This poor soul thought they were just being clever, but they've basically committed the developer equivalent of framing someone for MURDER. The senior dev's face says it all—pure existential panic because guess who's getting blamed when everything crashes and burns? NOT THE INNOCENT-LOOKING CULPRIT! This is why we can't have nice things in software development. Trust? DESTROYED. Career? POSSIBLY OVER. Code review processes? CLEARLY NONEXISTENT!

The year is 2070. Flying cars exist. We've colonized Mars. Quantum computing powers everything. But the Linux kernel? Still not "vibe code." Some poor maintainer is getting a pull request rejected because Linus doesn't think their commit messages spark joy. 50 years from now and we'll still be using git, still dealing with legacy code from the 90s, and still arguing about tabs vs spaces. The more technology advances, the more kernel development stays exactly the same.

Who needs proper branching strategies when you can just dump everything into one glorious commit? The top shows a complex git branch workflow with multiple feature branches merging together - you know, what they teach in those fancy "best practices" courses. Meanwhile, the bottom shows what we actually do: one straight line of commits because who has time for that organized nonsense? Nothing says "I'll fix it in production" quite like bypassing code reviews and merging directly to main. Git blame? More like git shame.

Ah, the classic bait-and-switch of programming education! Kids think they're entering a magical world of creativity with drag-and-drop blocks and cute animations, only to discover their future involves staring at terminal windows for hours debugging merge conflicts. It's like expecting to become a chef by playing cooking games, then discovering real kitchens involve mostly dishwashing and knife sharpening. The gap between Scratch/educational programming and "rm -rf node_modules && npm install" is the greatest plot twist in tech careers.

Ah yes, Microsoft's subtle propaganda equating open source with communism—because sharing code is clearly a gateway drug to full-blown Marxism. The irony is delicious considering Microsoft now claims to "❤️ open source" while historically viewing it as an existential threat. Nothing says capitalism like paying $7.5 billion for GitHub, the world's largest communist code repository. In Soviet Russia, code commits you!

The classic GitHub commit message that says it all. When diving into Vulkan (that notoriously complex graphics API that makes OpenGL look like a children's toy), this dev's only documentation is a README file warning potential recruiters about the horror show inside. It's the programming equivalent of those "Abandon All Hope" signs at the entrance to Hell. The best part? They committed it just 3 minutes ago - probably right after realizing their code is an unholy abomination that would make even seasoned graphics programmers weep.
