Coding Standard Of Extreme Nature

Content Theory is when you know everything, but nothing works. Practice is when you don't know anything, yet everything works. In Programming we combine theory and practice; nothing works, and we don't know why.

The perfect response when your coworker asks if you've consulted the documentation before bothering them with your problem. Ten years in this industry and I've developed a sixth sense for detecting who actually reads docs versus who just mashes Stack Overflow solutions together until something works. Documentation is like flossing - everybody claims they do it regularly, but the reality is much grimmer. Most devs would rather reverse-engineer an entire codebase than spend 5 minutes reading what the author actually intended.

Ah yes, the classic "my code is a complete dumpster fire but somehow works" versus "look professional for the commit" duality. Left side: messy cat representing the horrifying hacks and duct-tape solutions that miraculously make your code function. Right side: same cat in a tuxedo because suddenly we're all "clean code advocates" when it's time to push to the repo. As if adding comments and proper indentation at the last minute will hide the fact that your algorithm has the architectural integrity of a house of cards in a hurricane. Your team lead will never know!
