Technical Interview Vs Actual Job

1 day ago 56.0K views 2 shares

Ah, the classic bait and switch of tech hiring. You show up to the interview in your fancy suit (Tom from Tom & Jerry), answering questions about red-black trees and time complexity while sweating through your bow tie. Then six months later, you're in the trenches (buff Jerry), sleep-deprived, debugging legacy code written by someone who clearly hated humanity, chugging coffee at 2 AM because production is down and somehow it's your fault. The algorithm questions? Haven't used that knowledge once. But hey, at least you can tell your friends you're a "software engineer" while you're actually just Stack Overflow's most loyal customer.

Open Source Baby

Python Programming

1 day ago 68.5K views 1 shares

Ah, the classic "my baby is a Python program" approach to parenting! These parents clearly skipped the manual and went straight to GitHub for child-rearing instructions. The baby is literally instantiated as a class with genetic inheritance parameters, has an infinite loop for living (with mandatory sleep cycles), and comes pre-programmed with self-confidence. The yield Bardak() function is clearly what happens after feeding time. And that be_awesome() method with the comment "# Nothing to do.. already awesome" is basically how all developers see their own code before the code review. Bet this kid's first words will be "Syntax Error".

Huge Red Flag: The Lines-Of-Code Delusion

Ah, the classic "we want to exploit you but make it sound like opportunity" post. This CTO thinks wanting a guaranteed salary is a red flag, but his actual red flags are waving harder than a windmill in a hurricane: ✅ "Lines of code" as a performance metric ✅ Gamified "leaderboard" to pit devs against each other ✅ Mocking stable income as "playing it safe" ✅ Expecting "tens of thousands of lines per day" (physically impossible) ✅ Belittling testing and maintainable code Translation: "I want desperate coders who'll work 80-hour weeks chasing a bonus they'll never quite reach while I pay them peanuts." After 20 years in this industry, I've learned that any company measuring productivity by line count is where good code goes to die. The truly elite developers I know write less code, not more.

An Easy Bug

Debugging Programming Testing Frontend Backend

The classic tale of programmer optimism. 9:00 AM: "This is an easy bug. I can fix it in minutes." 11:00 PM: Still sitting in the same chair, staring at the same code, questioning every life decision that led to this moment. The only thing that's changed is the darkness outside and the will to live inside. Time estimation in programming - where minutes mysteriously transform into hours, and "I'll be done by lunch" becomes "I might sleep here tonight."

The #1 DevOps Excuse For Legitimately Slacking Off

The ultimate DevOps get-out-of-jail-free card! When your manager catches you sword fighting with your coworker instead of deploying that critical patch, just yell "DNS!" and watch them retreat in terror. DNS propagation is the perfect excuse because it's both legitimate and completely unverifiable. "Is he actually waiting or watching YouTube? Who knows! Better not risk questioning the DNS gods." Even the most hardened managers know better than to challenge the mysterious black hole where productivity goes to die.

Ah, the classic "it's not broken, so don't fix it" philosophy taken to its logical extreme! This rickety tower of sticks and mud is somehow still standing—much like that legacy codebase written by the guy who left 5 years ago. Sure, it looks like it might collapse if you sneeze in its general direction, but hey, "The program is stable"! This is what happens when technical debt becomes load-bearing. One wrong move and you'll be spending your weekend debugging the apocalypse. The perfect metaphor for that production system held together by duct tape, prayers, and that one mysterious function nobody understands but everyone fears.

All My Repos Are Public As Well

Ah, the glorious transformation that happens when your pull request finally gets merged! You start as a nervous junior dev in a plain suit, questioning your life choices and code quality. Then BAM—suddenly you're royalty, adorned with medals of honor and sitting on the throne of Git superiority. The best part? That awkward moment when you submit a PR at 11:59 PM with 17 commented-out debug statements and a commit message that just says "fix stuff" – and somehow it still gets approved. Instant transformation from peasant to king of the codebase! And yes, all my repos are public too... which means everyone can witness both my moments of coding brilliance and the absolute dumpster fires I create before the PR gets polished. It's like having your teenage photos permanently displayed in Times Square.

Game Updates In A Nutshell: Priorities

Game devs be like: "Check out our new season with adorable pet companions and exclusive player skins!" Meanwhile, the UI that hasn't been updated since 2012 is literally a skeleton at the bottom of the ocean. And don't even get me started on those "new mechanics" drowning in the shallow end while everyone pretends not to notice. Classic case of "we fixed the cosmetic shop but forgot to fix the server that crashes every 20 minutes." Priorities, am I right?

Take It From A Big Problem To Not My Problem

Ah, the classic developer escape hatch! This meme perfectly captures that moment in bug-fixing purgatory when you've spent 17 hours staring at the same broken code, and suddenly a lightbulb goes off—not to fix it, but to rebrand it . "It's not a memory leak, it's automatic cache clearing!" The dark art of turning catastrophic failures into marketable features is basically a required skill on any resume. The penguin's smug face says it all: "Ship it now, fix it never." This is basically how half of all software release notes are written.

When Your Dog Does No Take Only Throw

The classic Windows shutdown standoff! Just like a stubborn dog that refuses to give back the ball but wants you to keep throwing, Windows is playing the ultimate game of "no take, only throw" with your shutdown request. You politely ask it to close, and it's like "nah, I've got this ONE app that's super important" (spoiler: it's probably just Notepad with a blank document). The blue screen of death's friendlier cousin is basically saying "I'll shut down when I'm good and ready, human." And we all know clicking "Shut down anyway" is the digital equivalent of yanking the ball from the dog's mouth - there will be consequences!

Average C++ Developer

C++ Programming Debugging

1 day ago 67.4K views 0 shares

Behold the C++ developer in their natural habitat: manually managing memory while flexing on "easier" languages. These magnificent creatures believe that if you're not wrestling with pointers and segmentation faults before breakfast, you're not really programming. They've built biceps from carrying the weight of all those header files and abs from tensing up every time they forget to delete what they malloc'd. Modern languages with garbage collection? That's for the weak. Real programmers prefer their languages like they prefer their coffee—unnecessarily complex and likely to keep you up at night debugging.
