The corporate bait-and-switch algorithm in its purest form! During interviews, they showcase their pristine development environment with ergonomic chairs and fancy hardware. Fast forward two weeks post-onboarding and you're debugging legacy code at 2AM, surviving on caffeine and pure spite, looking like you've been exiled to the basement for three decades. The transformation from "we value work-life balance" to "can you push that hotfix before you sleep?" happens faster than O(1) time complexity.

I'm Not Ashamed Of My Code

Junior devs proudly displaying their spaghetti code like it's a work of art. Meanwhile, senior devs watching in horror, knowing that confidence is directly proportional to how much technical debt they'll have to clean up later. The lack of shame is the first symptom of code that'll be featured in next month's refactoring meeting.

Command Prompt Apocalypse 2025

THE AUDACITY! Some poor soul is absolutely LOSING THEIR MIND over command prompt being used for AI in 2025. They're practically BEGGING for proper executable binaries with the drama of a Shakespeare tragedy! 💀 Meanwhile, the rest of us are just sitting here like "Sir, this is a Wendy's" while they have their existential crisis over installation methods. The command line has been traumatizing developers since the dawn of computing, and this brave warrior has FINALLY had ENOUGH!

PHP Is Inevitable

PHP is the cockroach of programming languages. For years, developers have predicted its demise, written obituaries, and planned migrations away from it... yet somehow it powers ~77% of all websites. Modern frameworks like Laravel and the constant evolution of PHP 8+ have given it surprising resilience. Meanwhile, the tech community keeps asking the same question to PHP that Sonic is answering here: "I have no idea" how I'm still alive, but here I am, running your favorite websites. The language simply refuses to die despite being the internet's favorite punching bag.
