You know you've made it as a software engineer when your bed looks like a server rack and your relationship status mirrors your WiFi connection. People with pets get a warm furball, couples get each other, but CS engineers? We get a laptop, a phone, a tablet, seventeen cables, and the crushing realization that we're technically "connected" to everything yet somehow still alone.
The best part is how accurate the "Connected, No Internet" metaphor really is. Sure, you're surrounded by devices and technically plugged into the digital world 24/7, but are you actually communicating with another human? Nah. You're debugging at 2 AM while your phone charges next to your pillow like it's your significant other.
At least the laptop understands you. It doesn't judge when you talk to rubber ducks or when you've been wearing the same hoodie for three days straight.
