Git Workflow: The Ryanair Experience

The quintessential dev team dynamic captured in its natural habitat. Top dev proudly announces "the energy I bring to the team" while showcasing a comment from a teammate who's bypassing all testing protocols with the battle cry "i'm merging it. f*ck the tests." Meanwhile, the cherry on top comes from someone named "Average Engineer" who declares writing test cases is basically admitting your code might have flaws—a cardinal sin in the church of overconfidence. This is that special moment when the CI/CD pipeline becomes CI/See-No-Evil. Future production issues? That's tomorrow-you's problem! Nothing says "high-performing team" like merging untested code at 11:36 PM and calling it "energy."

Nothing says "I'm deeply in love" like naming your Git branch feature/sarah-you-complete-me . Developers might not write songs, but we immortalize our crushes in commit messages that only 3 other people will ever read. The real romance is when you push to production and whisper "this one's for you" as you break the entire codebase. Who needs mixtapes when you can dedicate a Stack Overflow question to your beloved? "Dear Jessica, this segmentation fault represents my heart without you."

The neural pathways of a developer's brain have evolved to interpret everything through code-colored glasses. When normal humans hear "Let's create a game together," they think of flirting. Meanwhile, the developer's brain short-circuits and immediately jumps to "Unity or Unreal Engine? I'll set up the Git repo tonight!" No wonder dating profiles don't have a field for preferred programming language - it would be the only thing we'd fill out properly.

The eternal battle between Microsoft's desperate pleas and Linux users' defiant independence is perfectly captured here. Microsoft is literally begging you not to download Chrome while simultaneously pushing Edge down your throat like an overeager parent with vegetables. Meanwhile, Linux users are treating Microsoft like an annoying insect - cracking their command-line whips and shooing away anything that doesn't respect their freedom to choose. The imagery of commanding Git with a bullwhip is just *chef's kiss* - because nothing says "I'm in control of my computing destiny" like manually compiling your kernel while laughing maniacally.

Nothing triggers impostor syndrome quite like scrolling through GitHub and finding Luigi here with dual CS degrees from an Ivy League school, 3500 followers, and probably a contribution graph that looks like a Manhattan skyline. Meanwhile, you're still struggling to center a div and your most impressive achievement is fixing a bug by restarting your computer. The cherry on top? He's probably 22 and already has FAANG offers while you're surviving on Stack Overflow copypasta and praying nobody reviews your code too carefully. But hey, at least you know how to exit Vim... sometimes.

This developer just casually created an "app skeleton" with 3,163 files changed and +637,124 lines of code in a SINGLE commit. That's not a skeleton—that's an entire digital cemetery! When most of us create a "skeleton app," we mean a few files and basic structure. This person apparently thinks "skeleton" means "fully formed creature with organs, skin, and probably its own consciousness." The PR is even marked "Ready to merge" with no reviews requested. Bold strategy—let's see if anyone survives the code review!
