Lets Make It Better

refactoring-memes, debugging-memes, code-optimization-memes, overengineering-memes, technical-debt-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

Ah, the classic "if it ain't broke, break it" approach to software development! Guy's peacefully riding along with working code, then thinks "let's refactor this perfectly functional code to make it better" and BAM—face-plants spectacularly into dependency hell. This is basically every developer who's ever said "I'll just make a small improvement" at 4:55 PM on a Friday. The bike was fine until you decided to "optimize" it, genius. Next time maybe just commit the working version before you decide to "improve" it?

Excel Wizard Outperforms Engineering Team

The accounting department's Excel wizard has secretly built a more reliable distributed system than your entire engineering team. While you're debugging dependency hell in your microservices architecture, Barbara from accounting has 70 perfectly synchronized Excel sheets running the entire company without a single Kubernetes cluster in sight. Her "legacy system" hasn't crashed in 15 years, and nobody dares ask how it works because the last IT guy who tried is now selling handmade jewelry on Etsy.

Content I took care of everything: domain registration, DB setup, CMS install, plugins, etc.. Awesom But... 10 000 for 10 minutes are you kidding? Why the hell is it so expensive? All is up and running, it's your turn to play! And it took less than 10 minutes. Very impressive... That, sir, it's because it took me 10 years to be able to do it in 10 minutes! CommitStrip.com
