CSS Gardening

CSS Gardening
Finally, a gardener who understands CSS! The tree has position: relative (it's staying put), the branches have display: none (they've been chopped off), and the leaves are position: absolute; bottom: 0px (stubbornly growing only at the base). It's what happens when you let a frontend developer loose with pruning shears. Nature doesn't stand a chance against someone who's spent years fighting with flexbox.

From Game Dev To Gardening: The Circle Of Life

From Game Dev To Gardening: The Circle Of Life
The circle of life in game development: get your degree, land that dream job making video games, work 80-hour weeks fixing collision detection bugs until your soul leaves your body, then finally find peace growing actual plants that don't have physics engines. It's the classic "touch grass" solution, except you're now literally responsible for the grass. Still better than dealing with that one producer who keeps saying "can we just make it more fun?"

The career trajectory we never planned for! First, you naively enter game development with stars in your eyes and a degree in hand. Then reality hits—80-hour weeks debugging collision detection, players complaining your water physics aren't "realistic enough," and that one producer who keeps saying "just one more feature." Before you know it, you're burnt out, staring at your IDE with the thousand-yard stare of someone who's implemented the same login screen 37 times. Finally, you reach enlightenment: reject complexity, embrace photosynthesis. Your plants don't have merge conflicts, don't need standups, and never ask "but can we make it pop more?" The ultimate escape from dependency hell is growing actual tomatoes instead of maintaining npm packages with tomato-related names.
