What Are Tech Guys Gonna Do?

Nothing compares to that sweet, sweet dopamine hit when git blame reveals it was Dave from backend who wrote that cursed one-liner six months ago. Suddenly, all those hours debugging his spaghetti code transform from existential crisis to vindication. The commit history doesn't lie—and neither does that timestamp showing he pushed it Friday at 4:59 PM. Justice has never felt so satisfying.

Someone just nuked an entire FAQ section from Firefox's codebase—specifically the one where they pinky-promised to never sell your personal data and protect you from advertisers. You know, that whole "That's a promise" bit that made Firefox the good guy in the browser wars. The diff shows -8 lines of pure idealism being deleted. No additions. Just... gone. Like deleting your principles from version control because, well, business is business. The irony is chef's kiss—removing the promise about protecting privacy in a commit that's now permanently documented in git history. Nothing says "we changed our minds about that whole privacy thing" quite like yeeting it from the source code. The real kicker? This is in the Firefox repo itself. The browser that built its entire brand on NOT being Chrome just casually deleting their privacy manifesto. At least they're honest about it... in the most passive-aggressive way possible.

Ah, the modern tech job posting—where companies want a single developer with the skills of seventeen specialists working for the price of one junior. The guy nails it perfectly. When recruiters list every technology under the sun—from three programming languages to multiple frameworks, databases, cloud services, DevOps tools, and system administration—they're basically asking for a unicorn who can replace their entire engineering team. After 15 years in the industry, I've seen job descriptions evolve from "Java developer" to "technical demigod who can single-handedly build, deploy, and maintain the entire digital infrastructure of a Fortune 500 company while also making coffee." And the best part? They'll still call it "entry-level" and offer you exposure instead of a proper salary.

Who needs proper branching strategies when you can just dump everything into one glorious commit? The top shows a complex git branch workflow with multiple feature branches merging together - you know, what they teach in those fancy "best practices" courses. Meanwhile, the bottom shows what we actually do: one straight line of commits because who has time for that organized nonsense? Nothing says "I'll fix it in production" quite like bypassing code reviews and merging directly to main. Git blame? More like git shame.

Nothing strikes more fear into a developer's heart than asking for code review. The bear in the forest is just your senior dev who'd rather maul you than look at your 47 file changes with the comment "fixed stuff." The perfect survival strategy: create a PR so terrible that everyone suddenly develops selective blindness. Works on bears, tech leads, and that one architect who hasn't written actual code since Java 6.

OMG, the absolute CHAOS of development teams in their natural habitat! 💀 First we have someone proudly announcing "the energy I bring to the team" followed by their comment "i'm merging it. f*ck the tests" - the battle cry of every developer with a deadline breathing down their neck! Then the cherry on top: "writing testcases for your code is doubting your own coding abilities. it's a sign of weakness." EXCUSE ME?! That's like saying using a parachute when skydiving shows a lack of confidence in gravity! The sheer AUDACITY of these developers thinking their code is immaculate conception that needs no verification! Future bugs are literally SCREAMING in excitement waiting to be deployed to production!
