More People Can't Always Deliver Faster

project-management-memes, brooks-law-memes, development-memes, deadlines-memes, team-scaling-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The classic project management fallacy, illustrated with surgical precision. Just because nine women can't deliver a baby in one month doesn't stop project managers from thinking nine developers can deliver a project nine times faster. It's the same energy as believing you can dig a hole faster by hiring people who've never seen a shovel. Brooks' Law sends its regards - adding more people to a late project just makes it later. Next up: Project Manager discovers that two pizzas don't feed twenty people in half the time!

We'll Fix It Later (In Our Dreams)

Ah, the ancient architectural marvel of "I'll fix it later" engineering! This stone bridge with its bizarre double-arch structure perfectly represents what happens when you push your janky code to production while whispering sweet nothings about "cleaning it up in the refactor." The bridge is somehow still standing despite looking like it was designed by three different engineers who never spoke to each other. Just like your codebase after six months of "temporary fixes" and "we'll document this later" commits. Spoiler alert: The refactor never comes. That bridge has probably been "temporary" since 1873, much like your workaround for that authentication bug from 2019.
