Imposter Syndrome For Programmers

The AUDACITY of project managers thinking that physically hovering over developers will magically fix communication issues! Look at this PM in their fancy outfit, invading the sacred coding space like they're about to ask "is it done yet?" for the 47TH TIME TODAY. Developers frantically trying to focus while their PM breathes down their neck is the corporate equivalent of having someone watch you type your password. PURE TORTURE! Nothing says "I don't trust your time estimates" quite like setting up camp right next to the people who just want to be left alone with their code and existential dread. The closer the PM sits, the further the deadline slips - it's basically a law of physics at this point!

The modern tech interview process in a nutshell! When asked what makes someone a Senior Dev, the candidate proudly lists their credentials: "4 years installing npm packages" and "3 years installing pip packages." Basically their entire skill set is copying and pasting npm install and pip install commands from Stack Overflow. And somehow that's enough to get hired! The hiring bar has officially reached rock bottom. Next up: Senior AI Engineer with 10 years experience in "pressing Enter after pasting prompts."

The eternal struggle of our people. Just like vampires hiss at sunlight and Superman cowers from kryptonite, programmers recoil in horror at light-themed IDEs. Twenty years in this industry and I've never met a senior dev who willingly uses light mode. Our eyes have evolved to thrive in the darkness of basement offices and midnight debugging sessions. White backgrounds? That's for interns and management who code once a year. The rest of us prefer our screens like our coffee - dark and keeping us alive through questionable life choices.
