Deploy Fridays

Content Developer working on their last task of the day BUG BUG CHANGE REQUEST Client

The difference between int * and int ** is just one little asterisk, but it's enough to make any programmer lose their mind. Left panel: "Look, a pointer!" Right panel: "OH GOD A POINTER TO A POINTER!" The escalation of panic is absolutely justified. Nothing says "I'm about to spend 3 hours debugging a segmentation fault" like dealing with double pointers. Memory management hell has layers, and that second asterisk is the express elevator to the bottom floor.

Taking language learning advice too literally is peak CS student behavior. While everyone else is chatting with native French speakers, this ambitious programmer is flat on the floor trying to communicate with an actual python. The snake looks equally confused about this impromptu coding session. Spoiler alert: hissing at your reptilian tutor won't fix your indentation errors, and the snake's debugging technique is just to swallow the problem whole.

When your code finally runs after 48 hours of debugging, but you've lost all will to live in the process. That "Myself" button is looking mighty tempting after staring at a missing semicolon for two days straight. The irony of requesting your own death certificate online is the perfect metaphor for what happens when you deploy to production on a Friday afternoon. At least the UI is straightforward—unlike that legacy codebase you inherited.
