The Cobbler's Children Have No Smart Shoes

The IT paradox in its purest form. When you spend your days fixing security vulnerabilities and battling IoT nightmares, the last thing you want is your toaster conspiring with your fridge to lock you out of your own home. That OpenWRT router isn't just a preference—it's a defensive perimeter. Meanwhile, the tech enthusiasts are living in their voice-controlled utopia, blissfully unaware they're one firmware update away from their house becoming self-aware. And that 2004 printer? Pure psychological warfare. After 15 years of random paper jams and cryptic error messages, you develop a relationship that's half Stockholm syndrome, half mutual assured destruction.

The cobbler's children have no shoes, and the programmer's house has no smart tech—just a demonic printer that might need to be put down at any moment. Nothing captures the duality of tech life better than this. Non-tech people building smart homes with IoT everything, while actual developers know better than to invite that chaos into their lives. We're too busy fixing bugs at work to come home and debug why our refrigerator is suddenly speaking Portuguese and ordering 50 gallons of milk. And that printer? The universal enemy. The one piece of technology that has somehow escaped decades of innovation and remains stubbornly, maliciously stupid. It senses fear and feeds on desperation. It requires blood sacrifice to print a simple PDF.

THE ULTIMATE TECH IRONY! 💀 While your cousin won't shut up about his voice-activated toaster, actual software engineers are living in digital POVERTY with ONE printer that's basically on parole! The sheer AUDACITY of printers to make those unholy demon noises at 2AM is the real reason tech workers have trust issues. We don't need smart homes when we're too busy contemplating HOMICIDE against our HP OfficeJet that decided printing is more of a "suggestion" than a "function." The cobbler's children have no shoes, and the programmer's house has exactly ONE piece of technology—and it's the most TRAUMATIZING one!

The ultimate irony of working in tech! While enthusiasts fill their homes with smart fridges that judge their midnight snacking habits, actual tech workers maintain a strictly adversarial relationship with the one printer they reluctantly own. That mysterious grinding noise at 2:14 AM? Definitely the printer plotting its revenge. The paranoia is justified—anyone who's debugged a printer driver knows these devices operate on dark magic rather than actual protocols. The gun is just proper threat modeling for inevitable printer rebellion.
