The difference between how versioning should work and how it actually works in some codebases. According to semantic versioning, you increment the major version (like 1.0 to 2.0) when you make changes that break backward compatibility. But then there's that one developer who breaks something with literally every commit and somehow still has a job. Their changelog probably just reads "Fixed stuff, broke other stuff" for every release. It's basically the software development equivalent of playing Russian roulette with a fully loaded gun.

Finally, someone brave enough to decode the cryptic art of version numbering! The major version gets bumped when you're feeling particularly smug about your code. The minor version? That's just for the mundane Tuesday releases. But that patch number? That's where the bodies are buried—all those emergency fixes for bugs you swore didn't exist during code review. "No no, that 123 isn't a frantic weekend of hotfixes... it's a feature richness indicator ." Sure, buddy. We all know the truth behind those triple-digit patches. It's basically a shame counter.
