How To Make Tea With Zero Instructions

The tea bag is still wrapped in its paper, sitting in cold water with the string hanging outside the mug. Classic case of "it's so obvious, why would I document it?" syndrome that plagues software development. Future maintainers of this tea codebase will spend hours debugging why caffeine isn't being properly instantiated.

Billion Dollar Idea (And You Can Code It In A Weekend)

The universal startup formula: someone with zero technical knowledge but a "revolutionary idea" chasing down the nearest programmer they can find. "I'll handle the business side" translates to "I'll take 90% equity while you build the entire product." The programmer's running away is the most technically accurate part of the whole scenario. Just another day where someone thinks their Uber-but-for-dog-walkers concept is worth billions while the implementation is apparently just "some coding stuff."
