Unemployed Developer's GitHub

When your Git branch visualization looks like a Guitar Hero track, you know you've achieved peak chaos. Those colorful, intertwining lines aren't showing off your musical talent—they're documenting your descent into version control madness. Somewhere between "let me just make a quick fix" and "dear god what have I done," you've created a merge conflict masterpiece that would make even the most hardened DevOps engineer weep. At this point, just hit the reset button and pretend it was all a bad dream.

Remember when code reviews meant finding your coworker's spaghetti logic and passive-aggressive variable names? Now it's just you, questioning your existence while scrutinizing AI-generated code that's somehow both flawless and completely nonsensical. The modern code reviewer: frantically Googling obscure algorithms at 2 AM because you can't tell if GitHub Copilot is brilliant or hallucinating. "Is this O(log n) solution actually genius or am I being gaslit by a language model that learned to code from Stack Overflow?" Nothing grinds your gears quite like spending your precious human life debugging code written by a machine that doesn't even get tired or need coffee breaks.

The pinnacle of version control laziness: just add * to your .gitignore and call it a day. Why carefully select which files to ignore when you can ignore everything and manually add each file you want? It's like burning down your house to avoid cleaning it, then rebuilding one room at a time. Genius time-saving strategy until you need to git add -f 500 files. Works every time, 0% of the time.

Ah yes, the classic "fix" that fixes nothing. Committing your .env file to Git is like putting your house keys under the welcome mat and posting the address on Twitter. Sure, your code errors are gone... along with your database credentials, API keys, and whatever shred of respect your senior dev had for you. But hey, ship it.

The classic trolley problem asks if you'd divert a trolley to kill one person instead of five. But why choose when you can just git rebase master ? The command magically rearranges history, making it look like the trolley was always on a different track. Sure, you might have obliterated a timeline and forced-pushed reality, but hey—the commit history looks clean! Just don't mention the merge conflicts that briefly tore apart the fabric of space-time.

OH. MY. GOD. The ABSOLUTE PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE of code reviews! 💀 You pour your ENTIRE SOUL into a PR, and what do you get? Either a million "Overwhelmingly Positive" comments that make you question if they even READ your code, or that ONE devastating "Not Recommended" with ZERO explanation that haunts you for ETERNITY! And the SILENCE? That's the worst! Like, just TELL ME what's wrong with my beautiful 3 AM creation instead of leaving me to SPIRAL into self-doubt! Is it my variable naming? My architecture? MY ENTIRE CAREER CHOICE?! The duality of feedback is sending me to an early grave, I swear. 🪦
