Farming-dreams Memes

The duality of software engineering: one minute you're refactoring legacy code with the confidence of someone who just solved a P vs NP problem, the next you're Googling "how to start a goat farm" and updating your LinkedIn to "open to agricultural opportunities." There's no middle ground. You either just shipped a feature that makes you feel like you've achieved sentience, or you're one merge conflict away from trading your mechanical keyboard for a pitchfork. The farmer fantasy is especially popular around sprint planning meetings and whenever someone says "quick question" on Slack at 4:58 PM. Spoiler: farmers also deal with bugs. They're just less abstract and more likely to eat your crops.
