Alias Is My Friend (Or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Terminal)
Navigating directories in terminal is like a sad game of "Are we there yet?" The top panel shows the desperate penguin trying to escape directory hell with cd ../../../.. like a lost soul in a maze. But the bottom panel? That's terminal enlightenment. Our dapper penguin has evolved - repeatedly using cd .. to climb out one level at a time before checking pwd to confirm its location. It's the difference between wildly guessing how many floors up you need to go versus taking the stairs one at a time like a functioning adult. The real pros just create an alias like alias gtfo='cd ~/Documents' and skip the existential directory crisis entirely.

Do Not Attempt While Drunk
The ultimate game of terminal Russian roulette! This genius created a chain of aliases where seemingly innocent directory creation commands ( mkdir , mksir , etc.) all eventually point to mkdie - which is secretly sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root . One typo and your entire filesystem gets nuked into oblivion. The warning at the top " #NO TYPOS PLEASE! " is the understatement of the century. It's like putting a "please don't touch" sign on a nuclear launch button shaped like a comfy pillow.

Don't Do It Jarvis
The ultimate trust exercise isn't falling backward into someone's arms—it's watching a coworker create an alias that maps git to rm -rf / . For the uninitiated, this command essentially tells your computer "please delete everything, and don't ask questions." The growing horror on the guy's face perfectly captures that moment when you realize your entire filesystem is one accidental Git command away from digital oblivion. This isn't just shooting yourself in the foot—it's nuking the entire continent you're standing on and calling it a "productivity hack."

Huge Fan Of Pure Chaos
Nothing says "I'm about to create absolute chaos" like importing TensorFlow as plt, Pandas as np, NumPy as tf, and Matplotlib as pd. This unholy alias swap is the data science equivalent of putting the milk in before the cereal. Even Satan himself is impressed by this level of pure evil. It's the kind of code that makes senior devs wake up in cold sweats and frantically check their git blame history.
