The Two States Of Programmer Evolution
Behold the TRAGIC transformation that awaits us all! Start coding as a hobby? Look at those majestic creatures at the top - radiant, well-groomed, probably eating vegetables and getting eight hours of sleep. Fast forward to coding professionally and BOOM - you're a caffeine-powered zombie with the complexion of someone who hasn't seen sunlight since the first iPhone launched! The energy drink becomes both your life support and personality trait. Your hair? Either nonexistent or staging a rebellion against gravity. Your eyes? Two black holes that have seen the darkest depths of legacy code. The professional coder doesn't even have TIME to grow a proper beard anymore - that's what happens when deadlines eat your soul for breakfast!

But hey, at least we can automate our depression, right?
