The Mentor's Dilemma

onboarding-memes, workplace-memes, mentoring-memes, imposter-syndrome-memes, tech-lead-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

That moment of existential crisis when you realize you're either training your replacement or your future headache. Nothing like wondering if this new dev will be the one who actually reads documentation or just another copy-paste warrior who'll break production with Stack Overflow solutions. The real question isn't whether they're smart—it's whether you'll spend the next six months fixing their "creative interpretations" of your codebase.

Wherever I look I see anal this and anal that! So please stop. Use analyze, analyzer or whatever and not analinsert() or analcheck() 2k Views View Upvoters Upvote 88 S Share 2 000

Gonna Run It In My GitHub Actions Later

The bear vs wolf meme perfectly captures how system requirements have evolved over time. Modern AAA games demand absurd hardware specs (RTX 5090, 64GB RAM, 1TB SSD) while the original DOOM from 1993 will happily run on a potato with two wires sticking out of it. The title about "running it in GitHub Actions" is the chef's kiss - some dev figured out how to bypass buying a gaming rig by abusing CI/CD infrastructure to play games on company hardware. Classic developer resourcefulness. Your DevOps team hates this one simple trick!
