The eternal dance of software development in four panels! The customer complains about slowness, and the developer responds with a deadpan "ok" - classic engineering apathy. But then, plot twist! The developer actually optimizes the code for 200% performance improvement, and instead of celebration, the customer's response is pure product management energy: "great now we can add more features." This is why we can't have nice things in tech. You optimize the codebase only for it to become a justification to pile on more technical debt. The performance gains aren't for user experience—they're just to make room for more bloat!
