password-memes, memory-memes, vacation-memes, login-memes, it-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

THE ABSOLUTE BETRAYAL of your own brain when you return from vacation! There you are, staring at the login screen for the tool you've supposedly used EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. of your professional existence, and suddenly—POOF!—your password has vanished from your memory like it was thrown into the fires of Mount Doom! Your fingers hover over the keyboard in a pathetic dance of desperation while your colleagues watch your soul leave your body. The walk of shame to IT for a password reset is the modern developer's walk of atonement. And don't even get me started on when you finally get in and can't remember how a single function works! The AUDACITY of our brains to take PTO when we do!

Boolean Logic

Ah, the classic case of unintentional boolean logic in the wild! The sign says "We don't accept bills higher than 50 AND 100" which logically means they don't accept bills that are simultaneously higher than both 50 and 100. But since any bill higher than 100 is automatically higher than 50, this statement actually means "We don't accept bills higher than 100" - making the 50 completely redundant. Twenty years of coding and I still see this stuff everywhere. The number of times I've had to explain to product managers why "if user is premium AND has subscription" isn't what they actually meant... I've lost count. This is why we can't have nice things in production.

Git Commit Git Push Oh Fuck

You know what's hilarious? We all learned semantic versioning in like week one, nodded along seriously, then proceeded to ship version 2.7.123 because we kept breaking production at 3am and needed to hotfix our hotfixes. That "shame version" number climbing into triple digits? Yeah, that's basically a public counter of how many times you muttered "how did this pass code review" while frantically pushing fixes. The comment "0.1.698" is *chef's kiss* because someone out there really did increment the patch version 698 times. At that point you're not following semver, you're just keeping a tally of your regrets. The real kicker is when your PM asks "when are we going to v1.0?" and you realize you've been in beta for 3 years because committing to a major version feels like admitting you know what you're doing.
