Ah, the nightmare of every sysadmin - an axe that generates log files. It's the perfect metaphor for when your debugging tools create more problems than they solve. Just imagine: each swing of the axe creates another 500MB of logs you'll never read, filled with messages like "Axe successfully connected to wood" and "Wood separation event initiated" and thousands of "INFO: Axe position updated" entries. And somewhere in there, buried on line 47,283, is the one error message you actually need.

The dream: spend your day crafting elegant algorithms and solving interesting problems. The reality: waste 6 hours figuring out why your Docker container can't find Node 16.2.3 even though you CLEARLY specified it in your Dockerfile, then realize your .env file has a space after one of the equals signs. Cool cool cool.

The ultimate bait-and-switch! First declares "CI/CD is a scam" to trigger every DevOps engineer on LinkedIn, then proceeds to describe... the most basic manual deployment process imaginable. What he's describing is literally the antithesis of CI/CD - spinning up EC2 instances and manually SSHing to deploy code. That's like saying "electric cars are a scam" and then revealing your amazing alternative is... walking. The cherry on top is the company name "Unemployed.ai" and the self-aware closing line. Pro tip: following this "advice" is indeed the fastest path to joining the unemployment statistics!

OH MY GOD, look at what they've done to my beautiful monolithic dinner! 😱 They've taken what was once a glorious heap of mixed vegetables and LITERALLY DISMEMBERED IT into hundreds of tiny, isolated cubes! Sure, each little vegetable piece is now "independently scalable" and can "fail without bringing down the entire meal," but at what cost?! Now I need seventeen different microservices just to assemble one bite of what used to be a simple spoonful! The deployment complexity has increased by 800%, and the fork latency is THROUGH THE ROOF! This is what happens when the architecture team reads one Medium article and decides to revolutionize everything!
