The Great Developer Memory Wipe

coding-skills-memes, developer-vacation-memes, imposter-syndrome-memes, memory-loss-memes, programming-experience-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The programmer's version of muscle atrophy. Take a short vacation and suddenly you're staring at your IDE like it's written in hieroglyphics. Your brain has somehow managed to uninstall decades of programming knowledge faster than Windows deletes system32. And yet, we'll still confidently tell new devs "it's like riding a bike" when they ask if coding skills fade. Spoiler alert: the bike is on fire and you've forgotten what legs are.

When Someone Mentions The R-Word

The duality of developers in their natural habitat. The top panel shows the stoic, unimpressed face when someone mentions they built "software" — the programming equivalent of saying "I breathe oxygen." But the bottom panel? Pure primal excitement when someone specifies it's "software written in Rust." Nothing triggers the dopamine receptors of a modern developer quite like hearing about memory safety without garbage collection. The Rust evangelism strike force claims another victim. I'd judge, but my pupils dilate too when someone mentions "zero-cost abstractions."

This is a risk.

Content ebd2 commented yesterday solvaholic: Sorry I missed your comment of many months ago. I no longer build software; I now make furniture out of wood. The hours are long, the pay sucks, and there's always the opportunity to remove my finger with a table saw, but nobody asks me if I can add an RSS feed to a DBMS, so there's that :)

I should probably set up better logging.

Content As a developer sometimes I have this massive existential crisis when I find a bug in an app I barely use on my phone. What? I'm not gonna report it because I barely use it but what if my report has the data the developer needs to finally fix the bug that has been keeping them up at night And maybe that's what's happening to me as a person. I keep trying to figure out what's wrong with me and how to fix it and all I need is someone to say "hey I noticed this about you, pls fi But no one does. Jesse what the fuck are you talking about?
