Guitar Hero: Git Edition

Signing up for GitHub before learning Git is like being handed a weapon you have no idea how to operate. You're just standing there with this powerful tool, completely clueless about commits, branches, or pull requests. Meanwhile, seasoned devs are watching you fumble around the interface wondering why you can't just "upload" your code directly. The classic rookie move of thinking GitHub = Git, only to discover there's this whole command line beast you need to tame first!

The classic "I'm done with my work" delusion that haunts every developer. First panel: the blissful ignorance of pushing code and declaring victory. Second panel: QA bursts your bubble with a flood of "it doesn't work on my machine" messages. Third panel: the final boss appears - DevOps sliding into your DMs with that special horror reserved for production environment issues. The face progressively darkening perfectly captures that sinking feeling when you realize your Friday evening plans just evaporated into debugging sessions.

Excited about contributing to open source until discovering it's written in JavaScript? Classic developer mood swing! From "I'm gonna change the world" to "nevermind, I'd rather slam my keyboard against the wall" in 0.2 seconds. JavaScript went from being that quirky browser toy to somehow taking over the entire development ecosystem. Now we're all stuck with package.json files larger than our actual code and 47,000 dependencies just to center a div. The enthusiasm drain is real - nothing kills your coding passion quite like realizing you'll need to understand someone else's JS spaghetti code with 15 different design patterns and zero comments.

The duality of modern coding life. First panel: "OMG, GitHub Copilot is free in VS Code?!" *frantically puts on glasses to see clearly* Second panel: "Wait... my code is free for GitHub Copilot?" *realization sets in* Remember when we used to worry about other devs stealing our code? Now we're feeding the AI overlords our precious algorithms so they can regurgitate them to junior devs who'll get paid more than us. The circle of tech life, folks.

Seventeen days in and this developer has already achieved enlightenment: deleting dead code with zero hesitation. Most engineers spend months tiptoeing around unused functions like they're ancient artifacts that might curse the entire codebase if disturbed. Not this legend. They're out here Marie Kondo-ing the repo on day seventeen, yeeting functions straight to main like they own the place. The energy here is immaculate. No pull request anxiety, no "but what if we need it later?" Just pure, unfiltered confidence in code deletion. Either they're incredibly brave or their onboarding process was chef's kiss . Meanwhile, senior devs are probably sweating bullets wondering if that function was actually load-bearing for some obscure edge case from 2019. Pro tip: Dead code is like that gym membership you never use. It costs nothing to keep around, but deep down you know it's just taking up space and making you feel guilty.

GASP! The AUDACITY of developers thinking they can hide behind AI! 💅 When you run git blame to find out which MONSTER broke the code, it reveals the actual HUMAN criminal - not GitHub Copilot! Your AI assistant isn't taking the fall for your disaster of a commit, sweetie! That's right, your name is PERMANENTLY etched in the git history hall of shame! There's no escaping accountability in this dystopian developer hellscape!
