It's Like Backup But Much Harder To Use
Trying to explain Git to non-developers is like trying to explain quantum physics to your cat. "So it's like saving files?" No, Karen, it's a distributed version control system that tracks changes and enables collaboration through branching and merging while maintaining commit history. "So... Google Drive?" *internal screaming intensifies* The beauty of Git is that even after years of using it daily, you'll still occasionally find yourself in detached HEAD state wondering where your commits went. And yet we can't live without it. Stockholm syndrome for developers.

So I Am Not The Only One!
The eternal struggle of being the tech person at a social gathering. There you are, trying to enjoy dinner with your spouse when suddenly their friends ambush you with questions about some obscure tech they heard about on a podcast. DeepSeek-R1 is actually a large language model (like ChatGPT's cousin), but to non-tech people, it might as well be alien technology. Meanwhile, your spouse has seen this movie before and knows exactly how the next hour of conversation will go—you reluctantly explaining machine learning concepts while your food gets cold. Ten years in the industry and I'm still the default tech support/explainer at every gathering. The dog represents my inner self—just wanting to be petted and fed treats instead of discussing transformer architectures over appetizers.
