The Three Stages Of Programmer Procrastination

Terminal users rejecting the simple ls command in favor of the more verbose $~ Show me the contents of the folder is peak AI prompt era nonsense. Next thing you know they'll be typing "Please, kind terminal, would you be so gracious as to display all hidden files" instead of ls -la . The efficiency is just... gone.

You literally just declared a class. You haven't even written a constructor yet. But ESLint is already throwing hands like you committed a war crime against code quality. The audacity to complain about unused variables when the ink isn't even dry on your first line is peak linter energy. It's like having a backseat driver who starts screaming before you've even left the driveway. Yes, ESLint, I know it's unused—I just created it 0.2 seconds ago. Let me breathe. Let me live. Let me at least finish my thought before you judge my entire architectural decision. The best part? You're probably going to use it in the next line, but ESLint doesn't care about your future plans.

Ah, the classic "nine women can't make a baby in one month" software development metaphor just got a brutal upgrade. What starts as a lesson about how some tasks can't be parallelized quickly descends into the actual nightmare of project management reality : • Half your "resources" aren't even qualified for the job • Your deadline was a fantasy from the start • The client doesn't actually need what they asked for, but instead wants something completely different that the PM thought would be "easier" It's not just Brooks' Law anymore—it's corporate absurdity distilled into three bullet points of pure developer trauma.
