Unfinished Side Projects

Ah, the classic "change your Git config and push a bug to production" move. It's like framing your coworker for murder, but in code form. This junior dev just performed the digital equivalent of identity theft by changing their Git config to match their senior's name and email, then pushed broken code straight to prod. Now when the blame command runs, it points to the innocent senior dev who's about to have a very confusing conversation with management. Pure corporate sabotage disguised as a rookie mistake. Diabolical.

Nothing like the sweet moment of realization that the code you're cursing was written by your past self. That special feeling when you open a project after a break and wonder what sleep-deprived maniac wrote those incomprehensible functions... only to check git blame and find your own name. The circle of developer life: write code, forget code, hate code, realize it was you all along. Future you is always judging present you, and they're not impressed.

Treating yourself like a software project is peak developer energy. While everyone else is promising to hit the gym, this guy's posting a changelog for himself like he just pushed to production. The real joke is thinking any of those bugs will actually get fixed before next December's emergency hotfix. At least he didn't label it "various performance improvements" which we all know means "I broke something but can't figure out what."

STOP. EVERYTHING. The most TRAGIC song of our generation just dropped! 🎵 You fix ONE measly bug and SOMEHOW end up with 18 MORE?! The audacity of code to MULTIPLY its problems when you're just trying to help! It's like fighting a coding hydra - chop off one head and two more scream "SYNTAX ERROR" in your face! This is why developers drink coffee by the gallon and question their life choices at 3 AM. The debugging paradox - where success is measured by creating fewer problems than you solve! 💀

The code review terror is real. That moment when your PR meets the unforgiving gaze of a senior dev who's seen it all—including every mistake you're about to make. You're just huddled in the corner, clutching your keyboard, wondering if your variable naming conventions are about to trigger another 45-minute lecture on "the right way to code." Meanwhile, the senior dev looms like a terrifying mechanical overlord, ready to dismantle your self-esteem function by function. Six months of experience vs six years of accumulated cynicism isn't even a fair fight.

The security admin proudly sets up branch protection requiring admin approval for all code changes. Meanwhile, the intern is confused about needing a +1 approval while the senior dev is like "lgtm, ship it" despite the code clearly containing an API key hardcoded in plain text with debugging logs printing credentials. Security theater at its finest - the branch is protected but the data sure isn't.
