The Programmer's Paradox: Gaming PC vs Girlfriend

The brutal honesty of this pie chart hits harder than a production bug on Friday at 4:59 PM. It's the perfect representation of the average programmer's life—split perfectly between two equally depressing realities. We spend thousands on overpriced GPUs but can't seem to allocate any resources to our social compiler. The irony is that even if we somehow acquired both mythical artifacts, we'd still be too busy debugging someone else's legacy code to enjoy either one.

The Three Dragons Of SQL Pronunciation

The eternal database holy war visualized as three dragons. "SQL" (pronounced like "sequel") is the menacing one, "SEQUEL" (the actual word) is the terrifying one, and "SQUEAL" (like a pig sound) is the derpy one with its tongue out. After 15 years in the industry, I've stopped correcting people. Say it however you want - the database will still ignore your perfectly crafted query and throw a syntax error anyway.

Content blind I was on a large org meeting and went off camera to accept an offer over phone. I realized midway through that I was unmuted and the entire engineering org heard me accept another job offer (roughly 300 people. Am I ducked? My manager hasn't said anything yet. Edit: I was kicked out of the meeting and realized after the phonecall was over (the meeting was still ongoing, it was at the halfway point I realized. Edit 2: Manager scheduled a meeting today (day after). Edit 3: I was fired, effective immediately. ProdrammerHumor.io

Adding Accessibility To Legacy Website For The Sake Of Compliance

When the product manager says "just make it WCAG compliant" and the dev team has a deadline tomorrow. That ramp is about as functional as my error handling—technically present but practically useless. The classic "it works on my machine" approach to accessibility! Reminds me of those CSS hacks we all write at 11:59 PM before a launch—technically passes the automated tests but would make any UX designer have an existential crisis.
