Insecure Private Key

Insecure Private Key
When you mistake a celebrity's keyboard smash for your RSA private key. The irony is delicious - spending hours securing your system only to accidentally paste Lady Gaga's random tweet as your encryption key. The real security vulnerability was between the keyboard and chair all along. Pro tip: If your private key looks like it could've been generated by a pop star having a seizure on their keyboard, maybe double-check before deploying to production.

Sorry, I Forgot To Print The Code Out

Sorry, I Forgot To Print The Code Out
Oh. My. GOD! The expectations vs. reality of code audits is sending me to the GRAVE! 💀 Top panel: The pristine, politically-charged algorithm that Elon thinks he'll discover in Twitter's codebase - a smoking gun that automatically deletes Trump tweets and bans authors! Bottom panel: The absolute HORROR SHOW he'll actually find - a cursed "isEven" function with a switch statement that returns undefined for 0, false for 1, true for 2, and false for 3. With a desperate plea comment "Please don't look at this" from some poor dev who KNEW they committed crimes against humanity! The reality of tech acquisitions: you pay $44 billion only to discover the backend is held together with duct tape, prayers, and questionable logic that would make computer science professors weep uncontrollably!

Are You A Bot? 🤖

Are You A Bot? 🤖
The existential crisis of modern programming in one tweet! Someone asks if you're a bot, and the reply cuts straight to the bone: "We are all bots. Some implemented with neurons and synapses, others with PHP. Arguably both are about the same IQ." Brutal takedown of PHP developers everywhere while simultaneously questioning what even makes us human. The philosophical burn is so savage it makes Descartes' "I think therefore I am" look like a casual observation. PHP catching strays in a conversation about artificial intelligence is peak programmer humor.

Elon's Flawless Twitter Profit Strategy

Elon's Flawless Twitter Profit Strategy
Elon's master plan for Twitter profitability is peak corporate strategy: Step 1: Make Twitter profitable (revolutionary concept) Step 2: Fire developers to cut costs (because who needs those pesky people who make things work?) Step 3: Introduce paid API plans (monetize everything!) Step 4: Completely forget to create your own subscription to said API (minor oversight) Nothing says "flawless execution" like charging for something you yourself can't figure out how to use. Classic billionaire move - break the stairs while climbing them.

How To Name Variables (Or How To Destroy A Codebase With One Rebrand)

How To Name Variables (Or How To Destroy A Codebase With One Rebrand)
The perfect documentation of programmer naming hell. When Twitter rebranded to "X," some poor dev somewhere had to refactor thousands of variables from sensible names like "tweet" to... "x"? And what's the verb now? "X-ing"? This is what happens when marketing decisions crash into code bases. Somewhere, a senior developer is drinking straight from the bottle while staring at search-and-replace results that broke 47 unit tests.

Stack Overflow Vs Twitter: The Great Developer Distraction

Stack Overflow Vs Twitter: The Great Developer Distraction
Ah, the classic bait-and-switch. First we were all tied up with Stack Overflow, desperately patting it on the head for every error message we couldn't decipher. Then Elon swoops in with his Twitter/X rebrand, and suddenly our timelines are filled with developers dramatically announcing their migration to Bluesky, Mastodon, or whatever platform hasn't been "ruined" yet. Ten years in this industry and I've learned one universal truth: developers will spend more time complaining about where they're complaining than actually writing code. Meanwhile, that bug isn't going to fix itself while you're crafting the perfect farewell tweet.

Question Was Asked To An Ex-Twitter Engineer

Question Was Asked To An Ex-Twitter Engineer
When asked "How does it feel knowing that the software you work on will probably break soon?" the ex-Twitter engineer's response is simply: "Normal." This is peak software engineering nihilism! After Elon's takeover and mass layoffs, Twitter's remaining code base is basically held together with digital duct tape and a prayer. The single-word answer perfectly captures what every developer secretly thinks: our code is always one deploy away from catastrophic failure. It's not pessimism—it's just Tuesday in tech.

He Paid 44 Billion To Get Dunked On

He Paid 44 Billion To Get Dunked On
The ultimate tech billionaire self-own! Elon confidently declares the Social Security database isn't de-duplicated, suggesting massive fraud... only to get absolutely demolished when someone points out he clearly has no idea how government databases work. The cherry on top? The "readers added context" feature on his own platform confirming that yes, the government does indeed use SQL. Nothing quite like spending $44 billion on a platform just so everyone can watch you get publicly schooled on basic database concepts. This is what happens when you skip Database 101 but still think you're qualified to critique government systems. Maybe next time Google "what is MySQL" before tweeting?
