The Impossible Job Requirements Paradox

Every dev job listing in existence: "Entry-level position. Requirements: Must have been coding since the womb." The tech industry's impossible math strikes again! The classic paradox where companies want you to be simultaneously young enough to work for peanuts but experienced enough to have built half the internet. Next they'll ask for your GitHub contributions from preschool. I've seen seniors with less experience requirements than some "junior" positions these days.

The Hidden Infrastructure Crisis

Ah, the beautiful illusion of software stability. Up top, users are having a grand old time, blissfully unaware that the entire platform is held together by duct tape and prayers. Meanwhile, down below, there's me—frantically patching critical bugs in production while the foundation literally crumbles around me. Nothing says "professional software development" quite like frantically typing fixes while praying the whole structure doesn't collapse before the next deployment window. The best part? Those users will never appreciate that their seamless experience exists solely because some poor developer is skipping lunch to patch a SQL injection vulnerability that could bring down the entire company.
