Useeffect Memes

Converting a simple 600-line form to React Hooks is the programming equivalent of opening a small kitchen drawer only to find yourself in a calculus fever dream. What should have been a quick refactor turns into a day-long mental breakdown where you question every life decision that led you to becoming a developer. Those floating math equations aren't just for show—they're the actual thoughts racing through your brain as you try to figure out why your useEffect is firing seventeen times and your state management resembles a plate of spaghetti thrown at the wall.

The perfect fusion of React hooks and nuclear physics! The top panel shows our cool developer initializing a state with useState(0) - calm, collected, sunglasses on. But the bottom panel reveals what happens next: useEffect incrementing that counter and BOOM - nuclear chain reaction begins! Just like in a reactor, one small state change triggers an endless loop of updates, causing your app to melt down faster than Chernobyl. This is why senior devs sweat profusely when junior devs forget dependency arrays. Pure computational fission!
