Dev Survival Rule No 1

3 hours ago 37.3K views 0 shares

The golden rule of software development: never deploy on Friday. It's basically a Geneva Convention for developers. You push that "merge to production" button at 4 PM on a Friday and suddenly you're spending your entire weekend debugging a cascading failure while your non-tech friends are out living their best lives. The risk-reward calculation is simple: best case scenario, everything works fine and nobody notices. Worst case? You're SSH'd into production servers at 2 AM Saturday with a cold pizza and existential dread as your only companions. Friday deployments are the technical equivalent of tempting fate—sure, it might work, but do you really want to find out when the entire ops team is already halfway through their first beer?

Writing code? You're in the zone, music bumping, fingers flying across the keyboard like you're composing a symphony. You feel unstoppable, creative, like a digital god sculpting reality from pure logic. Then your code doesn't work. Time to debug. Now you're staring at stack traces, adding print statements everywhere, questioning your entire career path and whether that CS degree was worth the student loans. The High Sparrow has seen some things, and none of them bring joy. Fun fact: Studies show developers spend about 50% of their time debugging. So basically half your career is that defeated look on the right. Choose your profession wisely, kids.

When Code Actually Behaves🤣

Debugging Programming Testing Frontend Backend

Users: mild interest, polite nods. Developers: absolute pandemonium, pointing at screens, fist pumps, questioning reality itself. There's something deeply suspicious about code that works on the first try. No stack traces, no cryptic error messages, no emergency Slack pings at 2 AM. Just... functionality. Users think "cool, it works" while devs are frantically checking logs, re-running tests, and wondering what cosmic horror they've unleashed that's masquerading as working code. Because let's be real: when your feature actually works as expected, you're not celebrating—you're paranoid. Did I forget to commit something? Is production secretly on fire? Did I accidentally fix that bug from three sprints ago? The dopamine hit is real, but so is the imposter syndrome of "there's NO WAY I wrote code this clean."

When You Realize 6 Months Of Coding Is Still No Magic

Six months in and you thought you'd be building the next Netflix by now. Instead, you're still Googling "how to center a div" and wondering why your API returns undefined. Backend development is basically an iceberg where the tip is "hello world" and the rest is databases, authentication, caching, microservices, message queues, load balancing, and existential dread about whether you should've just become a frontend dev. The real maturity isn't learning to code—it's accepting that those "full-stack developer in 3 months" bootcamp ads were lying to you. Backend alone could take years to truly master, and that's before you even touch DevOps, security, or the seventeen different ways to structure your project folders.

Calculator And Me

The duality of every developer's GitHub profile. You fork these magnificent, architecturally complex repositories with thousands of stars—beautifully crafted frameworks, intricate libraries, sophisticated tools that took teams years to build. Meanwhile, your own repos? A calculator app. Maybe a to-do list if you're feeling ambitious. That minimalist white cube perfectly captures the stark simplicity of "yet another basic project" we all have gathering digital dust in our profiles. The contrast hits different when you realize you've forked React, TensorFlow, and the Linux kernel, but your pinned repositories are literally just arithmetic operations wrapped in a GUI. We're all out here pretending to be contributors to enterprise-grade software while our actual output is "calculator-app-final-v2-ACTUALLY-FINAL."

The Best

Look, I've been in the trenches long enough to know that "compiled without errors" hits different than any romantic gesture ever could. Your code compiling on the first try? That's basically winning the lottery. It's the developer equivalent of finding out your soulmate exists and they also think tabs are better than spaces. We've all been there—staring at the screen, hitting compile, bracing for impact like it's a bomb defusal. Then... nothing. No red text. No angry compiler screaming at you about missing semicolons or type mismatches. Just pure, unadulterated success. That dopamine rush is unmatched. The bar for happiness in software development is so low it's practically underground. We celebrate the absence of failure like it's a major achievement. Which, let's be honest, it kind of is.

Same Keys, Different Processes

Ctrl+C is the ultimate identity crisis of keyboard shortcuts. In your text editor? Congrats, you just copied something. In your terminal? You just murdered a running process. Same combo, wildly different vibes. It's like how "fine" means completely different things depending on who's saying it. The casual Pooh represents the mundane, everyday copy operation—boring but useful. But fancy tuxedo Pooh? That's the power move. Interrupting processes, killing infinite loops, stopping runaway scripts that are eating your CPU for breakfast. It's the emergency eject button when your code decides to go rogue. Nothing says "I'm in control" quite like force-stopping a process that forgot how to quit gracefully.

#Stop AI

AI Programming

The eternal struggle between productivity and procrastination has found its champion. Someone out there is genuinely concerned that if we keep letting AI write our code, debug our apps, and generate our boilerplate, we won't have enough time left in the day to ignore our actual work and play video games instead. Because nothing says "efficient workflow" like spending 6 hours optimizing your build pipeline so you can save 30 seconds, then immediately losing those gains to "just one more round" of whatever game is currently destroying your sleep schedule. The real fear isn't AI taking our jobs—it's AI making us so productive that we'll have no excuse left for why we didn't finish that side project we've been talking about for three years.

Midnight Brain Deploys To Production Without Approval🧐

Your brain really chose midnight to become a rogue DevOps engineer, huh? Nothing says "living dangerously" like your subconscious deciding that NOW is the perfect time to remember that critical bug fix while you're desperately trying to sleep. The rational part of you is like "please, I beg you, let me rest" but your brain has already SSHed into production, bypassed all the CI/CD pipelines, ignored every code review protocol, and is ready to YOLO that hotfix straight to prod. No pull request, no approval, no backup plan—just pure, unfiltered chaos energy at 2 AM. Sweet dreams are made of merge conflicts, apparently.

Have You Ever Seen This

When VS Code gets so fed up with your code quality that it straight up roasts you before rage-quitting. Not "syntax error," not "compilation failed"—just a brutally honest assessment followed by immediate termination. No second chances, no stack trace, just pure judgment. The "OK" button is doing some heavy lifting here. Like yeah, what else are you gonna do? Argue with your IDE? Click "Cancel" and pretend it didn't happen? Sometimes you just gotta accept the L and start over. We've all been there—writing code so questionable that even our tools are questioning their life choices. The real mystery is whether this is a custom error message from a frustrated developer or if VS Code actually achieved sentience and chose violence.

Behold, the sacred trinity of IT troubleshooting! That massive blue slice? That's the "turn it off and turn it back on again" method—the nuclear option that somehow fixes 60% of all problems known to humanity. The red chunk represents frantically Googling error messages while pretending you totally knew what was wrong all along. And that adorable little green sliver? That's the phenomenon where bugs mysteriously vanish the SECOND a senior dev walks over to your desk. Suddenly your code works perfectly and you're left looking like you summoned them for absolutely nothing. The best part? This pie chart is disturbingly accurate and we're all just out here winging it with the confidence of someone who definitely knows what they're doing (narrator: they don't).

I'm Doing It Because I Love It

Nothing says "I love my job" quite like scrolling through OpenAI's entire ad tracking infrastructure at 2 AM. Every single class name screaming "ads.data" like a dystopian poetry collection. ApiAdTarget, BazaarContentWrapper, SearchAdsCarousel—it's like someone took the concept of targeted advertising and made it into a Java package naming convention. The forced smile says it all. You're not debugging critical infrastructure. You're not optimizing algorithms. You're knee-deep in ad tech for an AI company, trying to figure out why the BazaarContentWrapper isn't wrapping content from the correct bazaar. Your CS degree feels like it's watching you through the window, shaking its head in disappointment. But hey, the stock options are great, right? Right?
