It's Gonna Backfire
The corporate tech layoff saga continues! First, companies dump their engineers because "AI will save us money!" Then reality hits them like a production outage at 3 AM with no one to fix it. Sure, AI can write some code, but who's gonna explain to it why the client needs that button to be "more blue, but not too blue" or debug that legacy codebase written by some guy who left in 2011 and took all documentation with him? The best part? After burning millions on AI tools, they'll quietly start rehiring the same engineers at higher rates as "AI implementation specialists." Classic corporate self-sabotage at its finest!

Name The Game That Never Got A Sequel
HONEY, GRAB THE TISSUES! 😭 The absolute TRAGEDY of the software world - you pour your SOUL into building this MAGNIFICENT project with clean architecture, beautiful code, and revolutionary features... only for management to BRUTALLY MURDER your dreams by shutting down the entire project before version 2.0! The emotional whiplash from "excited SpongeBob" to "sobbing in fetal position SpongeBob" is the universal developer experience when your glorious creation gets the dreaded corporate guillotine! And that "To Be Continued" message? Pure psychological TORTURE for developers and users alike! Just another day where capitalism crushes creativity and leaves us all screaming into the void!

I Feel Kinda Bad For These Guys
Ah, the classic tale of legacy code getting absolutely demolished by the corporate rebranding train. That poor school bus labeled "Expedition 33" is about to get wrecked by the "Oblivion remaster" locomotive. After 6 years of maintaining that undocumented codebase with duct tape and prayers, management decides what it really needs is a shiny new framework and complete rewrite. The devs who built the original system have long since escaped to better jobs, while you're left watching the inevitable collision between unrealistic deadlines and technical debt. And the best part? In two years they'll just rebrand the wreckage as "Expedition 34: Cloud Edition" and we'll do this dance all over again.

How To Name Variables (Or How To Destroy A Codebase With One Rebrand)
The perfect documentation of programmer naming hell. When Twitter rebranded to "X," some poor dev somewhere had to refactor thousands of variables from sensible names like "tweet" to... "x"? And what's the verb now? "X-ing"? This is what happens when marketing decisions crash into code bases. Somewhere, a senior developer is drinking straight from the bottle while staring at search-and-replace results that broke 47 unit tests.

Wonder Why It Was Removed

Wonder Why It Was Removed
The eternal truth of software development. Product managers be like "Let's remove that useful feature nobody asked for" and suddenly users are storming the gates with pitchforks. Twenty years in this industry and I've seen more "bug fixes" that were actually feature removals than actual bug fixes. The worst part? Six months later they'll reintroduce the same feature as "revolutionary new functionality" in their premium tier. Classic corporate gaslighting at its finest.
