Best Advice For Every Programmer

The universal law of programming nobody teaches in CS degrees: "If it works, don't touch it." That moment when your janky code with 17 nested if-statements and zero comments somehow passes all tests, and you back away from the keyboard like you're defusing a bomb. The code is held together by digital duct tape and prayers, but hey—ship it! Future you can deal with that technical debt... or better yet, whoever inherits your codebase after you've conveniently switched teams.

The Iceberg Of Developer Productivity

The iceberg of developer productivity! That tiny visible tip labeled "Actually Writing Code" represents the 15 minutes of actual coding you do in a day. Meanwhile, lurking beneath the surface is the massive time-sink monster called "Setting Up The Local Environment" - that hellscape where you spend 7 hours fighting dependency conflicts, configuring Docker containers that refuse to play nice, and Googling cryptic error messages that have exactly one result on StackOverflow from 2014 with no answers. The real programming job description should just be "Professional Environment Configurator who occasionally types a semicolon."

Cluster Migration Crisis

The DevOps engineer's face says it all. Asking for zero downtime during a cluster migration is like asking for a unicorn that poops rainbows and speaks JavaScript. Every sysadmin knows that unholy trinity: fast, reliable, cheap—pick two. But management always wants all three, plus a cherry on top. The Galactus reference is perfect because migrating Kubernetes clusters without downtime isn't just difficult—it's cosmic horror territory. You're essentially performing heart surgery while the patient runs a marathon.
