The eternal myth of the "naturally gifted" programmer gets absolutely demolished here. While some folks are busy romanticizing coding skills as divine intervention or genetic lottery, the disheveled coder with bags under their eyes knows the brutal truth—they've just been grinding away for hours. No magic, no supernatural talent, just the unglamorous reality of putting in the work. This is basically the programming equivalent of "how did you get so good at guitar?" while conveniently ignoring the callused fingers and thousands of hours of practice. The wide-eyed admirer wants a shortcut that doesn't exist, but our hero's tired face tells the whole story without saying it: "I haven't slept properly in three days because I was debugging this nightmare."

When you pick up a book called "HOW TO GET BETTER AT CODING" but it just says "CODE MORE" inside. The brutal simplicity hits hard! Every developer looking for that magic shortcut or elegant algorithm gets slapped with the coding equivalent of "just do more pushups." No fancy frameworks or design patterns—just the cold, hard truth that mastery comes from grinding out more lines of code until your fingers bleed and your dreams are in syntax highlighting.
