Code resurrection Memes

The perfect double meaning that unites programmers and healthcare workers! Someone brilliantly compared the zombie-like state of elderly patients being resuscitated only to continue their ceiling-staring existence with the state of modern software. When code flatlines and crashes, we developers perform our own version of CPR - frantically debugging, restarting services, and injecting emergency patches. And for what? So our zombie application can limp along for another deployment cycle before inevitably crashing again. The cherry on top? That deadpan declaration that "CPR is quite literally necromancy." Well, both programmers and doctors are just professional necromancers, desperately reviving things that probably should have been allowed to die with dignity.

That heart-stopping moment when you deliberately delete some code instead of copying it (because who needs backups, right?)... only to suddenly realize you actually needed that code. Then—like a digital necromancer—you hit Ctrl+Z and your supposedly dead code resurrects itself. The emotional reunion that follows is worthy of a Hollywood tearjerker. Your cursor hovers there, trembling with gratitude that undo buffers exist. Without Ctrl+Z, half of all code would permanently vanish into the void during refactoring sessions.
