Billion Dollar Side Project 101

When you finally get that third monitor but realize your dragon wallpaper wasn't designed for this setup. Left screen: menacing. Middle screen: serious. Right screen: derpy as hell. Just like my code—starts strong, maintains dignity in the middle, then completely falls apart by the end of the function. The perfect metaphor for my project timeline estimates too.

If you are 70 years old and your sister was half your age when you were 6, then your sister was 6 2 6233 years old when you were 6. If your sister was 3 years old when you were 6 and you are now 70, then your sister is now 3 70 3707373 years old. So your sister is 73 years old.

The evolution of code sharing has reached its final form! First, we have GitHub - the standard way professionals share code. Then Google Drive - when you're desperate and don't know version control exists. Next level: taking a PICTURE of your code - the debugging equivalent of sending "pls fix" to your senior dev at 4:59pm on Friday. But the galaxy brain move? Reading your code aloud and publishing it as an audiobook on Amazon. Imagine listening to someone monotonously reciting "for i equals zero semicolon i less than array dot length semicolon i plus plus open curly brace" during your morning commute. That's not just programming - that's psychological warfare against humanity itself.

The five stages of grief have nothing on the six stages of debugging. First comes denial—"That can't happen"—because your code is obviously flawless. Then bargaining with reality—"That doesn't happen on my machine"—the programmer's equivalent of "it's not me, it's you." As the evidence mounts, you reach anger mixed with confusion—"That shouldn't happen"—followed by the existential crisis of "Why does that happen" where you question your career choices. Finally, enlightenment strikes with "Ohh, I see"—that beautiful moment when the bug reveals itself. But the journey ends with the soul-crushing realization: "How did that ever work?" Because somehow your broken code has been running in production for months.

Ah yes, the classic university delusion where professors think coding on dead trees somehow prepares you for real development. Nothing says "industry-ready" like frantically scribbling syntax errors you can't compile, while the real world uses IDEs with autocomplete, Stack Overflow, and the sweet embrace of copy-paste. Four years of education and somehow they missed the memo that programmers haven't coded on paper since punch cards went extinct. But sure, let's pretend your handwritten bubble sort algorithm without syntax highlighting is preparing the next generation of tech innovators.
