Half Of Them Are Hello World

Ah yes, the sacred GitHub portfolio tour. "And here's my revolutionary weather app that checks if it's raining... and over here, my groundbreaking to-do list with exactly three commits." Nothing says "hire me" like 47 repositories of unfinished projects with names like "test123" and "new-framework-tutorial." The digital equivalent of showing off a hat collection, except the hats are all half-knitted and abandoned after watching the first 20 minutes of a YouTube tutorial.

Just One More Year I Can Feel It

Ah, the annual domain renewal dilemma! That moment when you're faced with two buttons: admit your side project is as dead as a COBOL mainframe, or fork over another $12 to keep the dream on life support. We've all got that dusty GitHub repo with three commits from 2019 that was going to "revolutionize" something, but instead just revolutionized our domain registrar's profit margins. The sweating intensifies as you think, "This is definitely the year I'll finish my revolutionary URL shortener that somehow also mines cryptocurrency!" *clicks renewal button*

The AUDACITY of some developers! 💅 First, they quietly fork some poor abandoned GitHub repo that's been collecting digital dust for years. Then these ABSOLUTE MASTERMINDS update a few libraries, slap on their precious little feature, and have the sheer NERVE to declare their fork as the "new official source" on the original repo. But wait, it gets better! When actual humans dare to ask questions or submit PRs? *GHOSTED* faster than your ex after saying "we need to talk." The clown makeup progression is just *chef's kiss* - from mild deception to full-on open-source circus performer! It's the GitHub equivalent of claiming squatter's rights on someone's code and then ignoring the neighbors!

The classic tale of developer overengineering, brought to you by "pingusVM" - a project that died before it lived. Nothing screams "I've been coding too long" like deciding your VM needs both stack AND register-based architecture when one would've done just fine. Meanwhile, WebAssembly is sitting there like "been there, solved that" while our ambitious dev realizes they've reinvented a square wheel. The best projects are the ones you abandon after that 2AM moment of clarity when you realize you're competing with an entire team at Google. But hey, at least they got a funny name out of it. RIP pingusVM (2023-2023) - we hardly knew ye.

HONEY, GRAB THE TISSUES! 😭 The absolute TRAGEDY of the software world - you pour your SOUL into building this MAGNIFICENT project with clean architecture, beautiful code, and revolutionary features... only for management to BRUTALLY MURDER your dreams by shutting down the entire project before version 2.0! The emotional whiplash from "excited SpongeBob" to "sobbing in fetal position SpongeBob" is the universal developer experience when your glorious creation gets the dreaded corporate guillotine! And that "To Be Continued" message? Pure psychological TORTURE for developers and users alike! Just another day where capitalism crushes creativity and leaves us all screaming into the void!

The Eternal Project Cemetery

The duality of a programmer's existence captured perfectly! At work, you're dragging yourself through another CRUD app with the enthusiasm of a sloth on sedatives. But start a side project? Suddenly you're coding at 3 AM with the intensity of someone possessed, creating an elaborate algorithm to optimize your cat's feeding schedule—which you'll abandon halfway through because you had a new idea for a command-line tool that generates haikus about garbage collection. The cemetery of unfinished GitHub repos grows larger every weekend.

Dreams vs. Reality: The Developer's Journey

Oh SWEETIE, look at you! Started your dev journey with GRAND VISIONS of changing the world with revolutionary open-source projects that would make humanity WEEP with gratitude! Fast forward to reality: you're crying into your keyboard at 3AM trying to center a div or debugging why your function returns undefined for the 47th time today. Your GitHub is a GRAVEYARD of half-finished projects with names like "cool-app-v2-FINAL-ACTUALLY-FINAL" while you spend your days making enterprise software that tracks how many bathroom breaks employees take. The AUDACITY of our younger selves to have dreams! 😭

What Was I Thinking

Opening that GitHub repo after half a year feels like deep-sea archaeology. The code is some ancient artifact, buried under 3775.6 meters of mental context you've completely forgotten. You stare at your own comments thinking "What kind of sleep-deprived maniac wrote this?" before realizing it was you, at 2AM, fueled by energy drinks and misplaced confidence. The worst part? That brilliant architecture you were so proud of now looks like someone let a neural network write code after training it exclusively on Stack Overflow answers from 2011.

Who needs romance when you've got abandoned projects, right? Nothing quite like the desperate midnight hunt through your GitHub graveyard looking for that one function you wrote 6 months ago. "I know I solved this exact problem before!" *frantically scrolls through 47 half-finished repos* The ultimate programmer relationship status: committed to nothing except finding that one piece of code you were "totally going to document later."
