The Monkey Brain Discount Algorithm
Developers and Steam sales - a tale as old as time. Your brain stays completely offline when seeing a $29.99 price tag, but throw in that "-50%" label and suddenly your dopamine receptors light up like a Christmas tree. The game still costs exactly $29.99, but now your primitive developer brain is convinced it's an incredible deal. And Lord Gaben watches from above, knowing you'll buy 17 games you'll never install.

The Ultimate Stack Overflow Hack
OH. MY. GOD. The absolute DIABOLICAL GENIUS of this strategy! 🧠💥 Who needs Stack Overflow when you can manipulate the entire developer community's superiority complex?! Post a question from one account, then swoop in with another account and answer it COMPLETELY WRONG. Watch in unholy glee as an army of keyboard warriors TRIPS OVER THEMSELVES to correct you! It's like summoning demons except the incantation is "I think JavaScript is a compiled language" and suddenly you've got 47 people writing dissertations on interpreters. PURE. EVIL. BRILLIANCE.

The Philosophy Of Debugging
BEHOLD! The most profound psychological insight into the developer's tortured existence! Freud may have analyzed dreams, but he CLEARLY understood our coding nightmares! The sheer AUDACITY of this quote—"From error to error, one compiles the entire Code"—is just *chef's kiss*. It's like my entire career flashed before my eyes! You think you're fixing ONE bug, but SURPRISE, darling! You're just stumbling through an endless hellscape of compiler errors until somehow, MIRACULOUSLY, your garbage code finally runs. And then you have the NERVE to call yourself a professional! The psychoanalysis of programming trauma starts NOW!
