No Going Back Now

Content work for a large corporation that doesn't understand agile and deal with miles of red tape work for startup with a cult of personality CEO

That moment when you finish your "Hello World" tutorial and stare at the massive cargo ship of production code you're about to navigate. It's like bringing a water pistol to a tsunami. What they don't teach you in bootcamp: that cute little console.log is just the tip of a very deep, very scary iceberg filled with legacy code, tech debt, and config files that haven't been touched since 2012 because "nobody remembers what they do but everything breaks when you change them."

Content Product Owner: Build me a bridge! Developer A: This bridge is a combination retro-modern suspension bridge tunnel. Even though the connecting road has three lanes, the bridge has seventeen lanes because we anticipate expansion. We used twine for the suspension part because we couldn't get steel cables to work, and the tunnel part floods every Tuesday and Thursday. Also, the bridge turns pink and shoots fireworks on my birthday. And sometimes on Khloe Kardashian's birthday. Developer B: This bridge is a flat slab of adamantium-reinforced concrete that is bolted to the Earth's core. It has one lane and cannot be expanded. Ever. It is guaranteed to function until the heat death of the universe.

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of this developer! 💀 Instead of implementing the elegant recursive Fibonacci formula, this chaotic evil genius just hardcoded ALL THE VALUES in a switch statement like some kind of mathematical barbarian! The function is literally named "fib" but there's not a single calculation happening - just a glorified lookup table masquerading as actual code. This is what happens when someone takes "work smarter not harder" to its most horrifying extreme. The face peeking at the bottom is all of us witnessing this algorithmic war crime!
