Early Prototyping

The universe has a cruel sense of humor. You spend 8 hours staring at code, debugging like your life depends on it, and nothing. Then the moment you step into the shower—BAM!—your brain suddenly decides to function at 200% capacity. That desperate dash from the shower to the laptop, dripping wet with a toothbrush hanging from your mouth, is the true developer experience. No IDE, no Stack Overflow, just pure panic that you'll forget the solution before you can type it. The real question is: why don't companies just install waterproof keyboards in shower stalls? Probably would boost productivity by 73%.

The double entendre of CSS flexbox strikes again! This poor soul was bragging about mastering CSS flex properties yesterday, only to wake up today with complete amnesia about how any of it works. The friend's confusion is all of us trying to remember which flex property does what without checking Stack Overflow every 5 minutes. The "what did he flex about?" line is extra hilarious because CSS flexbox knowledge truly is the most fleeting victory in web development—you think you've conquered it, then your brain decides to garbage collect that information overnight.

Left side: Regular person confidently declaring they feel "totally safe using Tesla Autopilot." Right side: Programmers who actually wrote the code having an existential crisis because they know exactly what lurks in those if-else statements. Nothing makes you question mortality like knowing the corner cases your code doesn't handle. The same programmers who put "// TODO: Fix this later" in production code are now responsible for keeping your car between the lines.

That moment when you're faced with the eternal developer dilemma: spend an entire day making the codebase better or just slap together some hacky solution that'll come back to haunt you in six months. The hand reaching for that "minimum effort hack" button is all of us at 4:55pm on a Friday. Sure, you could refactor everything properly, but then your PR would be 2000 files and nobody wants to review that monstrosity anyway. Technical debt? That's a problem for Future You. And Future You hates Current You for a reason.
