Production ready Memes

While the Alpha and Beta males are locked in their eternal, ridiculous hammer-and-anvil struggle, the TRUE software genius sits back with their documentation, waiting for the stable release. GASP! The audacity of skipping all that early-adopter drama! Why waste precious life force on buggy alpha builds when you can swoop in post-launch with a fully functional product? The rest of us MERE MORTALS are out here beta testing like unpaid interns while Final Release Guy is living in 3023 with actual working code. Simply scandalous!

Compiler warnings? What compiler warnings? The code runs, doesn't it? That's the unspoken mantra of developers pushing to production. The painful truth is that most of us treat "0 errors : 5678 warnings" exactly the same as "0 errors : 0 warnings" — ship it and let future-you deal with the technical debt! Why fix what technically isn't broken? The compiler is clearly being dramatic.
