The Four Stages Of Developer Evolution

Someone opened a GitHub issue titled "Love #822" with the message "I need a gf" only to have it promptly closed as "not planned" by a contributor who replied "Sorry to hear that." Romance: the one feature request that even the most comprehensive project roadmap doesn't include. Trust me, I've been maintaining codebases longer than some of you have been alive, and relationships are the one dependency that never resolves cleanly.

Someone turned Git commands into a Spotify playlist, and it's the soundtrack of my existential coding crisis. First you "Pull," then "Push It" (real Salt-N-Pepa style), followed by "Merge" which takes a whopping 6 minutes because merges never go smoothly. Then comes the inevitable "Conflict" track, followed by the desperate "Pull Request" plea to your senior dev. The playlist climaxes with "Blame" and Taylor Swift's "Don't Blame Me" because we all know git blame is just the beginning of the finger-pointing ceremony. Finally, when all else fails, there's "REVERT" and "Cherry Picking" to salvage what's left of your dignity and codebase. This playlist is basically the 9 stages of Git grief.

Finally, a Git command that matches what we're all thinking! This fake package lets you rewrite Git history to blame your bugs on someone else, complete with a savage "You're officially an asshole" confirmation message. Every senior dev has fantasized about this after inheriting legacy code from that one colleague who mysteriously left right before their spaghetti code exploded in production. The Linus Torvalds endorsement is just chef's kiss perfection - because nothing says "authentic Git experience" like casual profanity and shifting responsibility.

THE AUDACITY! Just when you're about to push that LIFE-CHANGING commit to save humanity, GitHub's rainbow unicorn of doom appears! 🦄 There you are, frantically refreshing like it'll magically fix itself, as if the unicorn will gallop away if you click hard enough. And that "contact us if the problem persists" suggestion? PLEASE! As if we're not going to try refreshing 47 more times before even CONSIDERING that option! The unicorn might as well be saying "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" while sipping tea and judging your life choices. Meanwhile, your deadline approaches and your will to live decreases with every rainbow-colored second!

OH. MY. GOD. The ABSOLUTE VILLAIN creating a bot to send heart-attack-inducing emails to poor unsuspecting GitHub users! 😱 Nothing says "Happy Friday night" like making developers FRANTICALLY check their AWS console at 11PM while their dinner gets cold and their date wonders why they're hyperventilating! $30,000 in cloud costs?! That's not a bill, that's a down payment on a HOUSE! The sheer CHAOS this would cause in Slack channels everywhere... DevOps teams would be having emergency meetings while still in their pajamas! Pure EVIL GENIUS wrapped in a 280-character tweet!

The evolution of commit messages is the programmer's descent into madness. First panel: "Bugfix" - the bare minimum effort when you just want to go home. Second panel: "102: Fixed double-jump" - slightly better, at least there's a ticket number. Third panel: "fix: double-jump bug in PlayerController; resolves issue #102" - the brief moment of professionalism when you think someone might actually read your commits. Fourth panel: "Lots of changes lol; Fixed low key sus double-jump yeeting players off map; also fire refactor of all movement physics fr" - the complete breakdown where you're mixing conventional commits with stream-of-consciousness ramblings and Gen Z slang. This is what happens at 3 AM when you've been debugging the same issue since yesterday and your brain is running on energy drinks and spite.
