The Cookie Banner Conspiracy

The Cookie Banner Conspiracy
Somewhere in an alternate universe, browser makers actually considered user experience over ad revenue. Imagine a world where you set your cookie preferences ONCE instead of clicking "Reject All" 47 times per day like some deranged cookie-hating woodpecker. But no—that would be too convenient. The suits had a good laugh about that one before going back to their champagne and "innovative monetization strategies." Meanwhile, the rest of us are trapped in cookie banner hell, our fingers developing repetitive strain injuries from declining tracking on the same sites we visited yesterday.

Modern Web Design: Div Soup For The Soul

Modern Web Design: Div Soup For The Soul
Oh. My. God. The absolute TRAVESTY that is modern web development! Look at this abomination - everything is just a <div> soup now! HTML purists over here using semantic tags like civilized humans while the "agile & dynamic" crowd is just slapping <div> tags on LITERALLY EVERYTHING like they're going out of style! 💅 Want to create a navigation menu? That's a <div>. Need a blockquote? ANOTHER <div>! Creating a responsive grid? Let's throw in some <span> tags just to spice things up! Screen readers are SCREAMING in digital agony right now! Accessibility? Never heard of her! 🙄

Will It Ever End?

Will It Ever End?
The AUDACITY of Microsoft to keep Internet Explorer on life support through Edge's "IE mode" is the tech equivalent of your ex refusing to delete your number! Web developers thought they'd finally escaped the nightmare of IE compatibility, only to find it lurking in Edge like that horror movie villain who JUST. WON'T. DIE. The look of pure trauma on developers' faces when a client says "But it needs to work in IE mode" is absolutely priceless. We've moved from writing code to writing therapy journal entries about our browser PTSD!

Come On, It's 2025, Where's My Automatic Dark Mode?

Come On, It's 2025, Where's My Automatic Dark Mode?
Ah yes, the sudden retina assault that happens when you click a link at 11pm. Nothing quite like having your eyeballs incinerated by #FFFFFF backgrounds when you're coding in your cave. It's 2025 and we've got AI generating entire codebases, but somehow implementing prefers-color-scheme media query is still considered bleeding-edge technology for half the internet. I've literally added dark mode to sites in 10 minutes, but apparently that's too much effort for billion-dollar companies. The sunglasses aren't fashion—they're survival equipment for frontend developers.
