When Your "Quick Question" Triggers A Novel-Length Response
The moment you realize your "quick question" has unleashed a coding apocalypse. That senior dev typing for 10+ minutes isn't crafting a simple yes/no – they're writing your obituary in documentation form. Nothing strikes fear into a developer's heart quite like watching those three typing dots continue past the 30-second mark. At that point, you're not getting an answer – you're getting an essay on why your approach is fundamentally flawed, complete with architectural diagrams and references to design patterns you've never heard of. Pro tip: If you see "senior dev is typing..." for more than 2 minutes, start updating your resume.

Linus Q&A: The Real Reason We Attend
The infamous Linus Torvalds, creator of Linux, smiling after one of his legendary rants about code quality, with the caption "Sorry about the rant" - followed by Obi-Wan Kenobi saying "That's... why I'm here." Let's be honest, Linus's brutal code reviews and profanity-laden emails are basically open source's version of appointment television. The man once told NVIDIA "f*** you" with a middle finger on camera. His rants aren't bugs—they're features. We don't attend his talks for the technical insights; we're there for the verbal carnage. The rest of us mere mortals have to be diplomatic about garbage code. Meanwhile, Linus gets to live the dream of saying exactly what every tech lead is thinking when they see nested if statements seven levels deep.

The stark contrast between how artists and programmers interact is painfully accurate. Artists dance around with false modesty while programmers just openly roast each other's code and nod in agreement. Nothing builds camaraderie in tech quite like mutual acknowledgment that your codebase is a dumpster fire. It's not self-deprecation if it's objectively true. The real programming interview question should be "how comfortable are you with someone calling your life's work 'the worst f***ing code they've ever seen' and you just replying 'yep, sounds about right'?"
