Automation Is Good... Until You Do The Math

automation-memes, scripting-memes, efficiency-memes, bash-memes, devops-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

Ah, the classic automation paradox! The distinguished frog gentleman has discovered what every developer eventually learns the hard way: spending 8 hours automating a 10-minute task that you'll only do once a month isn't exactly the time-saving breakthrough you thought it would be. But did that stop any of us? Absolutely not. We'll automate our coffee brewing process even if it takes three weeks of development and a GitHub repo with 47 stars. It's not about efficiency—it's about avoiding the soul-crushing monotony of repetitive tasks... and having something cool to show off during standup.

The Four Stages Of Developer Anxiety

The evolution of developer anxiety in four stages. First, the mild concern of "works on my machine" - the classic excuse when your code fails elsewhere. Then the growing dread of "works on my build" as you realize you're one step closer to production. The full-blown panic of "works on my docker" where you've containerized your nightmare but still don't trust it. And finally, the complete mental breakdown of "works on my deployment" where you're just waiting for that 3AM alert to destroy what's left of your sanity. The container industry really sold us a circus, not a solution.
