The Irony Of Naming Conventions
The meeting room falls silent as the boss declares "All titles must be in camelCase." The team nods in agreement, until that one dev points out "ProgrammerHumor isn't camelCase." Cut to: boss throwing said dev out the window. Nothing says "consistent naming conventions" like violently ejecting the one person who notices your hypocrisy. Just another day in code standards enforcement.

The Naming Convention Crisis
Staring at two buttons labeled "userId" and "user_id" is like choosing between two identical bombs where only one won't explode your database. The cold sweat begins as you realize you've been inconsistent with naming conventions across your entire codebase for the last 5 years, and now you need to join these tables. Nothing like the sheer panic of wondering if you used camelCase or snake_case in that legacy module nobody's touched since 2018. Pro tip: standardize your naming conventions before you have 300,000 lines of technical debt and a drinking problem.

Ah, the eternal civil war among programmers trying to get the size of something. Is it count() ? size() ? length ? sizeof() ? len() ? Every damn language and library decided to pick their own favorite, and now we're all just Spider-Men pointing at each other in confusion. Nothing says "I'm a seasoned developer" like muscle memory making you type the wrong size function in every language and then cursing under your breath when the IDE throws a red squiggly line. Consistency? In programming? That's a good joke!
