Let's Make This Complicated

Computer Science curriculum: carefully designed courses covering fundamental algorithms, complex data structures, and enterprise database systems. Reality: you barely stayed awake through those lectures. But programming memes? That's where you're suddenly a PhD candidate. Every recursive joke, every "works on my machine" reference, every semicolon tragedy - you're fully engaged, taking mental notes, probably contributing your own material. Turns out the real education was the memes we collected along the way. At least those taught us that production always breaks on Friday at 4:59 PM.

Ah, the dependency economy strikes again! Nothing says "Make JavaScript Great Again" like slapping tariffs on all your package managers. 67% on NPM? That's how you end up with node_modules the size of Wyoming but still missing that one critical dependency. And Cargo at 90%? Rust developers about to start smuggling crates across the border. Meanwhile, Homebrew at just 14% is clearly the "very fine package manager on both sides." The only thing growing faster than these tariffs is your package-lock.json file.

The programmer community's version of relationship advice is about as reliable as a Windows ME machine connected to public WiFi. That "hide your $3000 GPU from your wife" joke might get you upvotes, but it's the same energy as keeping production secrets in plaintext. Healthy relationships don't need version control to hide your commit history. Meanwhile, the single devs nodding along are the same ones who think they can fix merge conflicts by ignoring them. Trust me, after 15 years in tech, the only thing that should be hidden is your terrible code, not your hobbies.
