Developer-beard Memes

The evolution of a developer's facial hair directly correlates with their technical depth. Frontend devs keep it clean and polished (just like their UIs), backend devs grow that rugged beard (like their undocumented code), but full-stack? That's when you've completely given up on grooming AND sleep. The thousand-yard stare of someone who's just fixed a CSS bug only to break the database connection for the fifth time today. The face of a person who knows too much and can no longer find joy in anything except successfully deploying on a Friday.
