Today I Am 1 K Days From Retirement

Today I Am 1 K Days From Retirement
Found the programmer who measures retirement in binary! 1,024 days (or 2 10 ) is exactly 1K in programmer-speak, while normies would round to 1,000 days. This dev is clearly counting down to freedom using powers of two—because why use the decimal system when you can flex your computer science fundamentals? Probably the same person who celebrates their 32nd birthday as "turning 100000 years old" and sets retirement savings goals in Bitcoin instead of dollars.

The entire codebase is literally being held up by a single senior developer who's mentally checked out and counting down the days until retirement. Meanwhile, the junior "vibe coders" keep stacking more features on top like they're playing architectural Jenga. That legacy code is one resignation letter away from a catastrophic production failure. Spoiler alert: nobody's documenting anything.

Senior Left And His Burden Falls Upon Me

Senior Left And His Burden Falls Upon Me
That bittersweet moment when your senior dev raises a champagne toast to retirement while you're sitting in the flames of legacy code hell. Nothing says "congratulations" quite like inheriting 20,000+ search results across thousands of files with zero documentation. The classic knowledge transfer plan: "It's all in the codebase somewhere, good luck!" Just imagine the commit messages from 1992: "temporary fix, will refactor later" and "don't touch this part, it works but I don't know why."
