Every Class You Break, Every Fix You Fake, I'll Be Judging You

Google's security priorities are seriously questionable. When your account gets hacked? A single flimsy gate that doesn't even close properly. But log in from your new phone? Suddenly it's Fort Knox with seven different locks, chains, and probably a retinal scan that they didn't show in the picture. I've spent more time proving I'm me to Google than I have to my own mother. Nothing says "we value security" like making legitimate users jump through hoops while leaving the backdoor wide open for actual intruders.

Starting with plain C: "Yeah, I guess memory management is my problem now." Then C++: "Wait, you're telling me I can have classes AND still shoot myself in the foot?" C# arrives: "Microsoft made something... actually decent?" And finally, whatever that monstrosity at the bottom is (probably Rust or some ML framework): "THE COMPILER KNOWS ALL MY SINS AND REFUSES TO LET ME COMPILE UNTIL I CONFESS THEM." Each language adds more symbols and more existential dread. Ten years of coding and I still can't tell if we're evolving or just adding more ways to overcomplicate "Hello World."

The grass is always greener on the other side, except both sides are equally caffeinated and underpaid. Baristas look at developers making six figures while staring at a screen and think "I should learn Python." Meanwhile, developers are debugging production at 2 AM fantasizing about the simple life of making lattes where the worst thing that can happen is someone orders a venti caramel macchiato with oat milk. Both jobs involve dealing with angry customers and cleaning up other people's messes, but only one lets you work in sweatpants. The irony is that both groups are probably right about wanting to switch.
