The Programmer's Emotional Pendulum

imposter-syndrome-memes, debugging-memes, self-confidence-memes, programmer-life-memes, code-quality-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The programmer's metronome of self-perception swings wildly between "I just refactored this entire codebase in one night, I am basically a deity" and "I've spent 3 hours debugging and it was a missing semicolon, I should be banned from touching keyboards." There is no middle ground in this profession - just the daily emotional rollercoaster between feeling like you've hacked the matrix and wondering if you should've become a sheep farmer instead.

Why No Trailing Commas

The utopian future we could've had if SQL didn't punish us for that innocent trailing comma. Nothing says "welcome to database hell" like spending 20 minutes debugging a query only to find you left a comma after the last column in your SELECT statement. Meanwhile, every modern language lets you add trailing commas in arrays/objects because they're not sadistic. The irony? SQL was supposed to be "human-readable" but decided syntax errors were more fun than technological advancement. No wonder our flying cars got delayed.
