Career Advice: The Art Of Strategic Persistence

Survivorship bias: the tech industry's secret promotion strategy! Why master complex algorithms when you can master the art of not updating your LinkedIn? Just hunker down while your colleagues chase shiny new startups, and voilà – you're suddenly the oracle of legacy code and where all the bodies are buried in the codebase. The real senior developer skill isn't solving problems, it's remembering why that mysterious function from 2016 can't be deleted without bringing down the entire system. Institutional knowledge through sheer stubbornness – nature's way of turning mediocrity into seniority!

No Need To Panic Everyone

Standing calmly while your code is literally exploding behind you is the ultimate developer power move. "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" I say smugly, as the entire codebase bursts into flames. The disconnect between my serene debugging advice and the absolute catastrophe unfolding is just *chef's kiss*. Meanwhile, production servers are doing backflips like they're auditioning for Cirque du Soleil. But hey, at least I've mastered the art of looking completely unfazed while everything burns to the ground. It's not a bug, it's an unplanned demolition feature.

Why Do Python Programmers Wear Glasses?

The punchline works on two levels of programming dad jokes. Python programmers "can't C#" (can't see sharp) because they need glasses, but also because they code in Python instead of C#. It's the programming equivalent of that joke your uncle tells at every family gathering – ancient, predictable, yet somehow still gets a reluctant chuckle from the room. Just like documentation from 2008 that somehow still works.
