If Only Brendan Eich Had One More Day

Ghost? Fine. Zombie? Whatever. Nuclear war? Slightly concerning. But regex? PURE TERROR . That incomprehensible string of brackets, slashes, and special characters is the true horror story of programming. You start with a simple pattern match and end up summoning an eldritch abomination that somehow passes all your tests but fails spectacularly in production. The character falling off their chair and literally dying is the most accurate representation of regex debugging I've ever seen. The tombstone is for your sanity, not your body.

The brutal truth about how developers survive their language of choice. C programmers ride motorcycles because they live dangerously with manual memory management. C++ devs mainline coffee to handle the complexity. C# folks need a variety of alcohol to cope with Microsoft's ecosystem. Python programmers use pacifiers because it's so beginner-friendly (but secretly they're babies). Haskell programmers need psychedelics to comprehend pure functional programming. Java devs pop Xanax to deal with enterprise verbosity and the JVM. JavaScript coders smoke weed to accept the chaos of the language. PHP programmers chain-smoke because they've made terrible life choices. And Rust programmers? They just wear cute socks because the compiler's strict safety checks make them feel warm and secure. Accurate? Probably more than we'd like to admit.

Remember 2010? When a homeless guy coding HTML for food was a joke? Fast forward to 2024, and suddenly we're all one framework update away from that cardboard sign. The tech industry's evolution has been less "innovation curve" and more "existential horror movie." Back then, we laughed at HTML being considered a survival skill. Now we're watching junior devs with 12 frameworks and a GitHub full of projects getting rejected for not having "10+ years of Svelte experience." The real horror isn't the job market—it's realizing that cardboard sign guy was just 14 years ahead of his time. A true visionary entrepreneur with impeccable market timing.

Thinking about learning JavaScript: PANIK . Seeing the $29.217 yearly salary: KALM . Discovering that JavaScript thinks 0 > null is false, but 0 >= null is true: EXTREME PANIK . JavaScript's type coercion is like that friend who makes up rules during board games. "No, see, zero is equal to null when it's convenient, but also completely different when it's not. Why? Because I said so."
