Formatting Memes

Ah, the eternal holy war of brace placement. Some programmers lose sleep over whether the opening curly brace belongs on the same line or the next. Meanwhile, Haskell programmers are busy putting semicolons in front of statements like they're driving on the left side of the road, and Lisp is over there doing... whatever Lisp does with those parentheses. The real joke is that we spend hours debating syntax while our actual algorithms still don't work.

Ever stared at eye tracking data in YAML format? It's like watching your life decisions unfold in real-time, but with more indentation errors. This beautiful mess of coordinates, timestamps, and pupil dilations is exactly what happens when someone takes the "/s" tag too literally. The joke being that YAML's human-readable format completely falls apart when you dump raw numerical data into it. Eight years of engineering experience has taught me one thing: just because you can store something in YAML doesn't mean you should . This is the digital equivalent of storing soup in a colander.

Behold, the utopian future we'd have if Atlassian just let us use **bold text** and `code blocks` in Jira tickets instead of their prehistoric rich text editor! The sheer productivity boost from not having to click seventeen buttons just to format a simple list would've cured climate change, solved world hunger, and built flying cars by now. Instead, we're all wasting precious developer hours trying to make our bug reports look slightly less like ransom notes cut from newspapers. The greatest technological minds of our generation, defeated by the inability to paste a code snippet without it turning into hieroglyphics.
