Don't Get My Hopes Up

That fleeting moment of joy when you find the perfect function in the docs, only to have your soul crushed in four stages of documentation grief. First comes hope, then the deprecation warning (which you ignore because it still works, right?), then the gut punch that it's completely gone, and finally the existential crisis when you realize the new API designers decided your use case wasn't worth supporting anymore. Nothing says "welcome to programming" like building your entire solution around a function that's secretly on death row.

Interview Preparation Vs Actual Work

Left side: A pristine O'Reilly book with an elegant wild boar illustration, promising the secrets to "Designing Data-Intensive Applications" with "reliable, scalable, and maintainable systems." Right side: The same boar, but now sleeping on a dirty mattress next to garbage bins. The elegant theory meets the trashy reality. Spent three months mastering B-trees and distributed consensus algorithms just to end up writing SQL queries that could've been figured out with a 5-minute Stack Overflow search. The duality of software engineering: expectation vs. the glorious dumpster fire we call production.
