When You Have API Credits To Burn

22 hours ago 66.2K views 0 shares

Forget complex algorithms! This Python developer decided to outsource the "is odd number" check to ChatGPT. Just casually burning through API credits to determine if a number has a remainder when divided by 2. The function makes a full API call, parses the response, and checks if the answer contains "yes" - all to replace a simple return number % 2 != 0 . Peak computational efficiency! 💸

OH. MY. GOD. Someone actually wrote a function that loops through EVERY NUMBER from 0 to x just to check if a number is even or odd?! 💀 Instead of using the BASIC MODULO OPERATOR that exists in LITERALLY EVERY PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE, this psychopath decided "you know what would be fun? Let's make the computer count to potentially INFINITY and then return True if i equals 1 or 2!" The absolute AUDACITY to write if i == 1: return True for even numbers and if i == 2: return True for odd numbers has me SCREAMING into my mechanical keyboard! This is what happens when you code at 4am after your fifth energy drink!

The pain of revisiting your brainchild only to find it's been "enhanced" by the new maintainers is a special kind of developer trauma. You pour your soul into clean architecture, sensible naming conventions, and thoughtful documentation—then return months later to find spaghetti code, 1000-line functions, and variables named "temp1" through "temp47." It's like watching your elegant creation get transformed into a coding horror show that would make even Stack Overflow moderators weep. The git blame feature becomes your personal torture device as you scroll through the commit history and whisper "what have they done to you?"

Is My PR Big Enough?

The eternal developer insecurity captured in one GitHub diff stat. Adding nearly 5,000 lines while removing 1,144 and still wondering if your PR is substantial enough. Meanwhile, your code reviewer is silently praying you didn't just paste an entire npm package into the codebase. The green bars say "impressive contribution" but your brain says "what if it's mostly comments and whitespace?" Classic impostor syndrome with a side of version control anxiety.

When your code is so broken even Stack Overflow can't help, just get a free vibe-check instead! The classic distracted boyfriend meme perfectly captures how developers will abandon actual troubleshooting for literally any distraction. Why fix your broken project when you can have someone validate your feelings about it? "Your code isn't bad, it's just misunderstood." Sure, and my 500 compiler errors are just being dramatic. Next up: "Emotional Support Developers" who just pat your back while you cry over your spaghetti code. $299/month, tissues not included.

When your junior dev creates a pull request without running tests, fixing linting errors, or even reviewing their own code. Just smashes that green button and expects everyone else to clean up the mess. And the worst part? We've all been that dev at some point. Nothing says "not my problem anymore" like a hastily created PR with the commit message "fix stuff".

The classic Scooby-Doo unmasking scene but make it debugging! The moment you pull back that ghost sheet only to find... yourself. Surprise! The call is coming from inside the house! Nothing quite captures that existential crisis when git blame points directly back at your commit from three weeks ago. "I would've gotten away with it too, if it weren't for my meddling self and that pesky version control!"

The Midnight Debugging Hero Nobody Asked For

The duality of developer existence in one perfect image. On the left, you've got the sleep-deprived zombie hunched over their keyboard at 3 AM, frantically fixing a bug because their brain refuses to shut down until it's solved. The code is their white whale, and sleep is just a concept for mere mortals. Meanwhile, the tech lead on the right looks like they've been through seven consecutive existential crises, reviewing the code with the enthusiasm of someone watching paint dry. That dead-eyed stare says, "I've seen things... terrible, unoptimized things." The best part? This entire sleep-sacrificing heroic debugging session will be met with all the excitement of someone checking their grocery receipt. Welcome to software development, where your midnight coding marathon is just Tuesday to everyone else.

Oh Wait It Is My Code

The classic programmer amnesia syndrome in full display! Nothing quite like the journey from "this code is garbage" to "oh wait, I wrote this masterpiece" in 0.5 seconds flat. That moment of horrified judgment—complaining about global variables and try-catch blocks spanning miles—only to realize you're critiquing your own digital fingerprints. The cognitive dissonance of immediately pivoting to "actually, the logic isn't that bad" is pure self-preservation at work. It's like finding an old diary entry and thinking "who wrote this nonsense?" before recognizing your own handwriting. The mental gymnastics we perform to protect our fragile programmer egos deserve an Olympic medal.

That feeling when your pull request finally gets approved after 47 code reviews, 18 requested changes, and 3 weeks of waiting... You're not just a developer anymore—you're royalty . Sitting on that throne of merged code, looking slightly uncomfortable because deep down you know your hastily added console.log() statements are still in there. The kingdom is yours until QA finds that edge case you totally forgot to test.

When coding alone, you're Patrick in a suit—professional, focused, meticulous. But the moment you share your screen for pair programming? Suddenly you're Patrick in his natural habitat—surrounded by chaos, wielding tools like a caveman discovering fire for the first time, and typing with the precision of a squirrel on espresso. Nothing exposes your questionable coding habits faster than an audience. The compiler may not judge you, but your coworkers definitely will.

My Colleague Doesn't Like His Own Spaghetti Functions

Someone's had enough of the 3000-line function that calculates tax, sends emails, updates databases, and makes coffee all in one go. Nothing says "I've reached my breaking point" like passive-aggressive office notes taped to the wall. Single responsibility principle isn't just good practice—it's apparently grounds for workplace violence if ignored. The colleague who wrote this has definitely muttered "what the hell does this even do?" while scrolling through functions named 'processData' at 2 AM.
