Literally Me Going Through A Colleague's Repo

The coding equivalent of being a relationship counselor with three divorces. You're out here solving everyone's merge conflicts and race conditions like some debugging superhero, but your own codebase? Total dumpster fire. Nothing like staring at a colleague's bug for 5 minutes before fixing it with a one-liner, then spending 3 hours trying to figure out why your own function returns undefined. The irony burns hotter than an overclocked CPU.

Behold the X11 user's daily ritual! While normal humans just click things, X11 enthusiasts spend countless hours configuring arcane display protocols from the 1980s, tweaking config files, and debugging screen tearing issues that shouldn't exist in this millennium. The face represents pure determination mixed with existential dread—the exact expression you make when your window manager crashes for the 17th time because you dared to connect a second monitor. Why use something modern when you can suffer gloriously with technology older than some developers?

Guy meets his wife in a GitHub issue thread—probably while they were viciously arguing over tabs vs. spaces or why someone's PR was "absolute garbage." Then the punchline hits: "glad you found a girl who could commit" and "Glad you two merged" followed by "I'll see myself out." It's beautiful, really. From heated technical debates to holy matrimony. And they say romance is dead? Clearly they haven't experienced the raw passion of a 47-comment thread about missing semicolons.

AI is as close to taking over programming jobs as toddlers are. 40 Reply Share 31 min. ago Awwwwww cute. Do you actually work in IT or an adjacent field? They are being eliminated as we speak. Case and point, my friend just narrowly saved her job by being promoted to senior level programmer, and all entry level positions were replaced by their construction site based Al photo detection they all helped code.

That ancient Windows 98 laptop begging for sweet release while its buff owner refuses to let go is the perfect metaphor for corporate IT. Somewhere, right now, a critical banking system is running on this exact machine because "it still works fine" and "upgrading might break something." The same people who rush to buy the latest smartphone are forcing this poor machine to run another day. It's not vintage—it's technological torture.
