The Selective Amnesia Of Software Developers

The dev brain is truly a marvel of selective amnesia. Skip coding for a single day and suddenly your framework knowledge evaporates, your syntax is from 2015, and you're Googling "how to center div" for the 500th time. Meanwhile, you can perfectly recall that one obscure Stack Overflow answer from 7 years ago about why your production server crashed. The two-month setback is real - I've returned from a one-week vacation needing three days just to remember my password conventions.

How Is It Going

The perfect encapsulation of game developer paranoia! When someone asks about their game's progress, they immediately assume the person has heard some terrible news. That nervous smile says it all - "My game is totally fine and definitely not a buggy mess held together by duct tape and prayers! Why? Did GitHub leak my commit messages about the physics engine being 'temporarily' disabled since 2021?" This is the digital equivalent of responding to "How are you?" with "Why? What have people been saying about me?!"
