From Calculator To Custom OS: Normal Developer Progression

programming-memes, tetris-memes, operating-system-memes, overkill-memes, developer-pride-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The classic developer progression: from "I made a calculator app!" to "I built an entire operating system just to run Tetris." It's like showing up to a knife fight with a nuclear warhead. Sure, your calculator adds numbers, but this madlad wrote a custom OS for a game from the 80s. Peak developer overkill. The gap between your first "Hello World" and someone's weekend project that casually reinvents computing is why Stack Overflow exists—half to get help, half to feel inadequate about your coding skills.

The Three Stages Of Programmer Procrastination

Oh honey, the DELUSION of every programmer who swears they'll actually study that new framework at 7pm! Then the transformation begins - suddenly it's "I'm a night owl, I code better at 3am" with full clown makeup. And the FINAL BOSS of self-deception? "I'll just wake up at 5am fresh as a daisy and learn Kubernetes before breakfast!" PLEASE! The only thing getting up early tomorrow is your collection of unread documentation tabs! The three stages of programmer procrastination: optimism, delusion, and complete fantasy - all wrapped in a rainbow wig of lies we tell ourselves!
