Git Doesn't Exist In His World

1 hour ago 11.6K views 0 shares

Someone just discovered the ultimate version control system - Microsoft Word! Because who needs Git when you can "automatically save changes you made which you can go back" right? Nothing says "professional developer" like writing code in a word processor and using Ctrl+Z as your rollback strategy. The project owner's face when reading this must have been priceless. "Sorry, our code tracking app won't support... *checks notes*... writing code in Word." Revolutionary idea rejected in record time - marked as "not planned" faster than you can say "merge conflict."

The Digital Economy's Precarious Foundation

The trillion-dollar tech industry balancing on the shoulders of sleep-deprived volunteers writing code at 3 AM fueled by nothing but energy drinks and existential dread. Corporate giants building empires on foundations maintained by devs who get paid in GitHub stars and the occasional "thanks for your contribution" email. Next time you complain about your Slack being down for 5 minutes, remember there's probably some poor soul debugging a critical library while their spouse wonders why they're missing dinner again for "that hobby thing."

New Repos, High Hopes, Every Time

Ah yes, the grand delusion of personal significance. On the left, we have the magnificent tower of "ALL MODERN DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE" – an imposing, complex structure representing the collective achievement of thousands of developers. And then there's "Your GitHub" – a single, pathetic vertical line that couldn't support a digital hamster wheel. The perfect visualization of that moment when you realize your "revolutionary" side project is just another sad little toothpick in the vast landscape of actual engineering. Yet somehow we all wake up Monday morning convinced this repo will be different. Nothing quite captures the developer experience like the cognitive dissonance between what we think we're building and the digital equivalent of a stick figure drawing we actually produce.

How To Create A Browser In 2025

The modern browser innovation pipeline in a nutshell! Why reinvent the wheel when you can just repaint it? Every "new" browser these days is essentially Chromium with a fresh coat of paint and marketing buzzwords. Brave, Edge, Opera—they're all just Chrome wearing different Halloween costumes. The Chromium monoculture is basically the JavaScript framework situation but for browsers: everyone forking the same codebase while pretending they've created something revolutionary. "Look ma, we added a built-in VPN that slows everything down by 30%!" Meanwhile, Mozilla Firefox sits in the corner, the last bastion of browser engine diversity, wondering where it all went wrong.

The Three Horsemen Of Tech Success

The tech industry's holy trinity formula has been cracked. Apple and Tesla follow the standard playbook: one visionary jerk who takes all the credit, one European designer with impeccable taste, and one quiet engineer who actually makes things work. Then there's Linux. Linus Torvalds somehow managed to fill all three roles simultaneously, creating an operating system while telling everyone to go fork themselves. The man literally wrote Git because other version control systems weren't worthy of his code. And that, friends, is why Linux runs the internet while you're still rebooting Windows.

Sometimes I Even Understand It

The brutal self-awareness here is just *chef's kiss*. Modern development is basically Stack Overflow archaeology combined with npm install. We spend hours hunting for that perfect GitHub repo someone built 4 years ago, then act like computer whisperers when we successfully integrate their code with three minor tweaks. And the best part? We're ALL doing it! The entire software industry is just one giant game of copy-paste telephone, where we occasionally understand what we're pasting. But hey, standing on the shoulders of giants is still standing!

No Social Life, Just Pull Requests

The sacred midnight ritual of contributing to open source projects waits for no social life. That guy isn't antisocial—he's just got 47 GitHub issues assigned to him and a maintainer breathing down his neck about that PR he promised "by end of week." The irony is he's probably fixing something that only three people in the world will ever use, but damn if it won't feel good when that merge request gets approved.

The Fragile Tower Of Modern Infrastructure

The entire internet is basically a Jenga tower of dependencies, and that tiny block labeled "Rust" is holding up way more than it should. Remember when we found out a critical piece of OpenSSL was maintained by one sleep-deprived guy? Same energy. The modern tech stack is just a bunch of precarious blocks stacked by people who left the company three years ago, and nobody wants to touch it because "it works." Until it doesn't.

The grand three-act play of open source glory: Act I: Proudly announce to the world you're a contributor to a prestigious AI project. Act II: Reveal your "critical contribution" was changing messages = messages to messages = encoding in a single line of code. Act III: Transform this heroic one-line fix into a LinkedIn epic where you "led critical efforts" alongside "elite engineers." The resume inflation algorithm is the real AI breakthrough here.

Ah yes, Microsoft's subtle propaganda equating open source with communism—because sharing code is clearly a gateway drug to full-blown Marxism. The irony is delicious considering Microsoft now claims to "❤️ open source" while historically viewing it as an existential threat. Nothing says capitalism like paying $7.5 billion for GitHub, the world's largest communist code repository. In Soviet Russia, code commits you!

I Even Made A Gradient Library Just For This Bot

Ah, the classic GitHub reality check! You spend weeks crafting your Discord bot masterpiece, complete with that custom gradient library you're secretly more proud of than your actual résumé. You're feeling all warm and fuzzy about sharing your "many interesting features" with the world... Then some random security expert with an anime avatar and 3 GitHub followers demolishes your entire existence with a single comment. Not only does your precious code have RCE exploits (Remote Code Execution - the digital equivalent of leaving your front door wide open with a "Please rob me" sign), but they also twist the knife by pointing out your bot isn't even online. The final panel's "never again" is the silent vow every developer makes before inevitably repeating this cycle of trauma next weekend with a new project. Because nothing says "I'm a developer" like emotional damage wrapped in pink blobs.

Look at that shower tile pattern—it's literally a GitHub contribution graph in your bathroom! Meanwhile, your own GitHub profile is emptier than a cache after clearing browser history. The shower is out here making daily contributions while you're still debugging that same for loop from last Tuesday. Guess who's getting more stars on their repos? Not you, buddy.
