GitHub: Not Just For Code Anymore

Ah yes, Australia's brilliant tech literacy strikes again! Apparently, the dangerous code repositories where developers store their work are just as threatening to children as dance videos and lip-syncing. Someone clearly confused "pushing to master" with some other kind of content. Next up: Stack Overflow to be rated 18+ because all those rejected code snippets might cause emotional damage. The date being 2025 is the cherry on top. At least we have 8 months to prepare for this groundbreaking legislation from people who probably think "git pull" is something you do at a pub.

The hierarchy of developer validation is hilariously backwards. 1000 Instagram followers? Meh. 100 Twitter followers? Whatever. 5 Reddit followers? Now we're talking. But 1 GitHub follower? ABSOLUTE GODMODE ACTIVATED. That single GitHub follower means someone actually values your code enough to stalk your digital creations. It's like having a secret admirer who's into your algorithms instead of your looks. Essentially the programming equivalent of being chosen by the cool kids. Meanwhile, your mom still thinks you "fix computers" for a living.

That feeling when your pull request finally gets approved after 47 code reviews, 18 requested changes, and 3 weeks of waiting... You're not just a developer anymore—you're royalty . Sitting on that throne of merged code, looking slightly uncomfortable because deep down you know your hastily added console.log() statements are still in there. The kingdom is yours until QA finds that edge case you totally forgot to test.

When someone actually follows git commit message conventions, it's basically developer flirting. The meme captures that rare unicorn who writes detailed, informative commit messages instead of the classic "fixed stuff" or "it works now idk why." Finding a teammate who documents their changes properly is like discovering a mythical creature who also brings donuts to morning standups. The real relationship goals in tech!

BEHOLD! The PINNACLE of technical documentation in all its glory! 🎨 Spent 72 hours coding a complex algorithm that could potentially save humanity, but the documentation? "I'm Tracy." THAT'S IT. THAT'S THE ENTIRE DOCUMENTATION. Future developers will have to perform a séance to understand this code because apparently naming a random person is all the context we need! Next time someone asks why the project is six months behind schedule, I'll just introduce myself and walk away. GENIUS!

OMG, the EVOLUTION of code ownership in three acts of pure DRAMA! 🎭 Act I: Designers having an absolute MELTDOWN over similar ideas. One's all smug while the other is literally CRYING TEARS OF RAGE! The audacity! Act II: Programmers being utterly UNBOTHERED. "I stole your code" meets "It's not my code" with the emotional investment of discussing yesterday's weather. The NONCHALANCE is killing me! Act III: GitHub users achieving PEAK ENLIGHTENMENT. Not only is stealing acknowledged, it's THANKED FOR! This is the digital equivalent of someone breaking into your house and you offering them tea for reorganizing your furniture! Welcome to open source, where your precious code belongs to EVERYONE and nobody simultaneously. What's mine is yours and what's yours is... forked.
