It's Not Me, It's Known

The evolution of developer confidence in three simple steps:

1. Junior dev: "I don't know what's happening" *frantically Googles error*

2. Mid-level dev: "I don't know but I'll figure it out" *opens Stack Overflow with determination*

3. Senior dev: "It's a known issue" *closes ticket without explanation*

The real senior dev superpower isn't knowing everything—it's knowing how to make your ignorance sound like industry wisdom. Bonus points if you say it with enough confidence that the client thinks it's part of the roadmap!

Backend Developers Meeting CSS For The First Time

Spent years building robust backend systems with proper architecture, only to be humbled by frontend development where apparently everything is "for babies." Nothing prepares you for the existential crisis of realizing your complex microservices are worthless if users can't click a button that's properly centered. The kid at the bottom is all of us after a week of trying to align divs with CSS. You start questioning your life choices when a simple margin: auto refuses to work for reasons beyond mortal comprehension.
