How To Sleep (Or Not)
Brain: "Hey you goin' to sleep?" Dev: "Yes, now shut up" Brain: "You committed the API Keys to a public repo" Nothing jolts a developer from the edge of sleep like remembering they accidentally pushed sensitive credentials to GitHub. That moment when your brain reminds you that your AWS keys are now visible to every bot scraping public repos, and your company credit card is about to fund someone's crypto mining operation in Siberia. Sweet dreams!

Always Test In Production
Nothing says "national security" like pushing straight to production. The Department of Defense apparently skipped the staging environment and decided to test their website updates right where everyone can see them. That random string of "asfasfasdfasf" at the bottom is the digital equivalent of a nuclear launch code that reads "12345." And they've dated it December 2024 - either someone's testing time travel or they've got the most aggressive sprint planning I've ever seen. Next time your PM complains about your code, just remind them that even people with actual missiles are out here keyboard-mashing in production.

Code Now, Cry Later
The duality of a programmer's existence in one perfect meme. Taking notes? That's for people who think they'll actually read them again. Meanwhile, the true coding warriors just slam their keyboards, write incomprehensible code at 2AM, and trust their future self to figure it out with nothing but cryptic variable names and zero comments. The confidence is breathtaking. The hubris is magnificent. The inevitable Stack Overflow search three weeks later when you have no idea what your own code does? Priceless.

Your New Password Can't Be The Same As Your Old Password... Right?
When a site tells you "your new password can't be the same as your old password," they're supposed to be comparing hashed values, not storing your actual password in plaintext. If they know what your old password was , they've already failed Security 101. The fact that a Fortune 500 company did this is like finding out your bank keeps everyone's money in a shoebox under the receptionist's desk. Ten years in tech and I'm still amazed at how many multi-billion dollar companies can't figure out basic password security.
