Resource allocation Memes

The most beautiful real-world implementation of a deadlock I've ever seen! Four articulated buses perfectly gridlocked in a roundabout—each one waiting for the other to move first, but none can proceed without the others backing up. It's like watching your multi-threaded code freeze in production, but with public transportation. This is what happens when you forget to implement semaphores in your traffic system. The OS course professor would frame this and hang it in their office. No mutex locks, no resource allocation graph—just pure, unfiltered concurrent disaster playing out in Oslo. Fun fact: The timestamp says 2025, so this is actually a prophetic warning from the future. Quick, someone implement a deadlock prevention algorithm before it's too late!

Adding more developers to a stuck project is like adding more people to drive a cart stuck in mud. The obvious solution? More horsepower to pull it out. The corporate solution? Add more drivers who'll just sit there smoking while the same horse struggles. Next sprint planning meeting, I'll just bring this picture instead of speaking. Saves everyone 45 minutes.
