Never Fails: The Accidental IT Department

The eternal paradox of being a programmer. You spend years mastering complex algorithms and data structures, only to become the default IT support person at every family gathering. Sure, I can debug your printer—not because I know anything about printer drivers or hardware interfaces, but because I've been conditioned to Google error messages until something works. It's the same skill set that lets me solve actual programming problems, just applied to your ancient HP inkjet that's probably older than some programming languages I use.

Learning C++/Unreal Engine After C#/Unity

Switching from Unity to Unreal is like going from a corporate office to a mob family. In Unity, you innocently call GetComponent<>() and HR's on the phone ready to write you up. Meanwhile, Unreal Engine bros just casually dropping GetWorld()->GetSubsystem<>() like they're asking for a coffee, and everyone thinks it's charming. The syntax difference isn't just technical—it's a whole cultural shift. One's calling HR, the other's getting heart emojis. The language barrier is real, folks.

My IDE Has Trust Issues

THE DRAMA! The AUDACITY! Your IDE is literally that helicopter parent who FREAKS OUT the second you start typing something unconventional! 😱 It's like walking into a room with a toddler screaming "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! STOP THAT RIGHT NOW!" only to sheepishly whisper "oh never mind" when you finish your thought. The emotional rollercoaster of coding with modern IDEs is SENDING ME! One minute they're questioning your entire existence, the next they're pretending nothing happened. The relationship between programmer and IDE is more dramatic than any reality TV show. And we just keep coming back for more abuse! 💀

It's Not Theft If You Call It AI Training

The modern art heist: stealing artwork while wearing a ski mask, but claiming it's for "AI training data" instead of your living room wall. Tech companies have mastered the art of rebranding theft as "machine learning research." Just slap "for AI purposes" on anything and suddenly you're not a criminal—you're an innovator disrupting the creative industry! The fine print is the cherry on top: "Theft is now legal if it creates shareholder value." Next up: "It's not breaking and entering if you're collecting spatial data for your VR startup."
