Principles For Sale: Defense Contractor Edition
Ah, the classic moral dilemma of tech careers! Top panel: struggling CompSci grad living in darkness, probably surviving on ramen and despair. Bottom panel: the same person transformed into a glorious angel warrior once defense contractors like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Rheinmetall slide into their DMs. Nothing says "I've compromised my youthful idealism" quite like going from "I want to change the world with code" to "I'll help build systems that make things go boom for the right salary package." Principles are just luxury items you sell when rent is due!

The ultimate paradox of computer science education! Take too long to graduate and you're essentially digging your own grave. While you're busy cramming for exams and perfecting your bubble sort, the industry is churning out frameworks that'll be extinct before you even update your LinkedIn profile. Nothing says "welcome to the real world" like maintaining legacy code written by people who graduated when "cloud" just meant bad weather. The longer you stay in school, the more technical debt you're inheriting from your future self. It's like watching your own execution in slow motion, one semester at a time.
