Git Workflow: The Ryanair Experience

Git Workflow: The Ryanair Experience
The harsh reality of Git commands visualized with brutal accuracy. Landing a plane? That's your git commit - looks smooth but you're still touching ground. Taking off with git push ? Sure, your code's airborne but there's always turbulence ahead in production. And then there's git add - literally passengers climbing stairs to nowhere in the middle of a desert. That's what happens when you stage files without knowing what the hell you're actually including. Seven years as a lead and I still catch juniors blindly adding everything with git add . and wondering why their API keys ended up on GitHub.

Be Null My Friend

Be Null My Friend
The martial arts of version control! Nothing strikes fear into the heart of a dev team like that one colleague who copy-pastes the same cryptic commit message 10,000 times. "Fixed stuff" or the dreaded "minor changes" pushed to production repeatedly is the coding equivalent of a roundhouse kick to your sanity. The true Git master isn't the one with diverse commits—it's the stubborn minimalist who refuses to elaborate what fresh hell they've introduced to the codebase. Next time you see "updates" committed for the 9,999th time, remember: empty your mind of descriptive messages, be formless, shapeless, like null...

The Three Stages Of Code Resumption

The Three Stages Of Code Resumption
The eternal struggle of picking up where you left off! The proper way? Detailed commit messages. The realistic way? Random notes. The galaxy brain way? Frantically mashing Ctrl+Z until you recognize something, followed by the inevitable panic of realizing you went too far and desperately hitting Ctrl+Shift+Z to recover. Nothing says "professional software engineer" quite like time-traveling through your code history via undo/redo shortcuts while muttering obscenities under your breath.

The Two Types Of Git Commit Criminals

The Two Types Of Git Commit Criminals
OH. MY. GOD. The duality of developers is SENDING ME! 😂 On the left: The chaotic evil developer who nukes the entire codebase with 430 files changed, adds 203,542 lines, deletes 158,119 more, and has the AUDACITY to simply write "fixes" in the patch notes. Like, honey, that's not a patch, that's a whole new universe you just created! On the right: The minimalist zen master who changes ONE single file, adds ONE line, removes ONE line, and then leaves absolutely BLANK patch notes like they're too good to explain their divine intervention. THE DRAMA! I'm definitely the one on the left, causing absolute chaos and then summarizing my 3-day coding bender with "minor tweaks" 💅

What Are Tech Guys Gonna Do?

What Are Tech Guys Gonna Do?
Nothing says "I'm deeply in love" like naming your Git branch feature/sarah-you-complete-me . Developers might not write songs, but we immortalize our crushes in commit messages that only 3 other people will ever read. The real romance is when you push to production and whisper "this one's for you" as you break the entire codebase. Who needs mixtapes when you can dedicate a Stack Overflow question to your beloved? "Dear Jessica, this segmentation fault represents my heart without you."

Trolling Future Self With Commits

Trolling Future Self With Commits
The evolution of commit messages is the programmer's descent into madness. First panel: "Bugfix" - the bare minimum effort when you just want to go home. Second panel: "102: Fixed double-jump" - slightly better, at least there's a ticket number. Third panel: "fix: double-jump bug in PlayerController; resolves issue #102" - the brief moment of professionalism when you think someone might actually read your commits. Fourth panel: "Lots of changes lol; Fixed low key sus double-jump yeeting players off map; also fire refactor of all movement physics fr" - the complete breakdown where you're mixing conventional commits with stream-of-consciousness ramblings and Gen Z slang. This is what happens at 3 AM when you've been debugging the same issue since yesterday and your brain is running on energy drinks and spite.

The Digital Skeletons In Your Closet

The Digital Skeletons In Your Closet
That moment when you realize his "private" repos are just abandoned side projects and half-baked ideas with commit messages like "fix stuff" and "it works now???" Showing someone your private GitHub repos is the developer equivalent of letting them see your search history—equal parts terrifying and disappointing. Those repos are where good ideas go to die and where code standards don't apply. It's not scandalous, just sad.

Git Beats: Version Control For The Bass Drop

Git Beats: Version Control For The Bass Drop
The version control rebellion we didn't know we needed. Some poor, rule-abiding developer is having an existential crisis while their chad colleague is out here revolutionizing music production with git commit -m "added a new bassline" . Who said Git was just for tracking code changes? This absolute madlad is treating his music tracks like feature branches. Next up: merging that sick drum solo without any conflicts. The purists can cry all they want, but version-controlled beats might just be the future of music production.

Vibe Coding In Prod

Vibe Coding In Prod
That's what happens when you push untested code on Friday at 4:59 PM with a commit message "it works on my machine." The skeleton isn't a metaphor - it's literally the remains of the last developer who thought hotfixing production was a personality trait. The business calls it "moving fast and breaking things," but the on-call engineer calls it "why I drink."

My Job Is Done

My Job Is Done
The absolute chad move of rewriting half the codebase and calling it "minor changes" before disappearing into the void. Nothing says "I'm the main character" like dropping a 4000-line bomb on your colleagues and then strutting away while they try to figure out what the hell just happened. The git commit history will remember your name long after you've gone home to enjoy your weekend.

When Git Pushes You To The Edge

When Git Pushes You To The Edge
When Google thinks you're having an existential crisis, but you're just trying to fix your codebase! Merge conflicts—where Git basically says "I have no idea which version of this code to keep, YOU figure it out." Those dreaded red and green highlights that make you question your career choices. Google's algorithm has clearly been trained on developer tears, immediately offering the suicide prevention hotline as if to say, "We know what resolving merge conflicts does to a person's mental state." The psychological stages of a merge conflict: denial, anger, bargaining with git, depression, and finally just force-pushing to main when nobody's looking.

Programming Is Actually Dangerous For Your Life

Programming Is Actually Dangerous For Your Life
The 2:34 AM text message that ruins your sleep cycle faster than a memory leak. Nothing says "professional workplace" like getting blasted for missing a meeting you weren't even invited to, followed by a critique of your commit messages that could've waited until business hours. The cherry on top? That passive-aggressive "YOLO" sign-off. Because nothing screams "I'm a reasonable team lead" like sending career threats via text message in the middle of the night and ending with 2010's most overused acronym. This is why developers keep their phones on silent and their resumes updated.
