Developer crimes Memes

Using Excel as a database is the tech equivalent of wearing socks with sandals - technically functional, but everyone who sees it will judge you. The moment you admit to storing production data in .xlsx files, you've earned yourself a one-way ticket to developer prison. No trial, no jury, just straight to jail. Sure, it starts innocently enough. "It's just a small project," you say. "We only have 50 rows," you promise. Fast forward six months and you're dealing with VLOOKUP nightmares, circular references, and that one guy who keeps saving it as .xls instead of .xlsx. Meanwhile, actual databases are sitting right there, crying in PostgreSQL. The prison guard's reaction is completely justified. This is a crime against data integrity, ACID compliance, and everything our ancestors fought for when they invented relational databases in the 1970s.

Prison seems like a fair punishment for running SQL directly on production. The hardened criminal confesses to skipping code review and executing queries straight on the live database—a cardinal sin that makes even murderers question their life choices. Nothing says "I enjoy chaos" quite like bypassing all safety protocols and potentially nuking customer data because you couldn't be bothered with proper testing. At least the murderer had the decency to commit only one crime.
