Sideproject Always Comes First

This meme perfectly captures the programmer's paradox of productivity. On the left, we see a pathetic 6 commits for "important school projects" with barely any code changes. Meanwhile, the right panel shows a glorious explosion of 20 commits with over 41,591 additions and 21,039 deletions for some random side project that probably generates AI-powered memes of cats dressed as programmers.

The brain's reward system is a treacherous ally - it finds school assignments boring but gets absolutely electrified when you decide to build that useless Discord bot at 3 AM. It's like our brains have a "procrastination optimization algorithm" that redirects all creative energy to the least important task with the highest dopamine payoff.
