The eternal dance of software development in two frames: a developer screaming internally while trying to estimate how long a project will take, juxtaposed with a project manager gleefully promising impossible deadlines to clients. It's like watching someone calculate the precise dimensions of a coffin while their boss is already selling tickets to the resurrection. The developer knows whatever number they give will be arbitrary and wrong, yet the PM has already promised the client they'll deliver a full enterprise system by next Tuesday. And thus begins another project destined to join the 70% that fail or exceed their budgets. But hey, at least the client is temporarily happy!

The ultimate Git love story! Daniel tweets about meeting his wife in a GitHub issue thread, and the replies are pure developer gold. Mickey drops that perfect pun about finding "a girl who could commit" (because commitment issues in relationships = commit issues in Git). Then Adam follows up with "Glad you two merged" and shows himself out after that brilliant pull request joke. Finding love while debugging code is the most developer thing ever. Their relationship probably started with "Hello World" and progressed to a successful production deployment.

The classic "create your own job security" maneuver. Taking a job where Rust isn't required, then sneakily rewriting a problematic component in your favorite language is the corporate equivalent of moving into someone's house and slowly replacing all their furniture. Before they know it, you're not just living there—you own the place. This is how tech evangelism works in the trenches. No fancy conference talks, just guerrilla warfare: "Oh that critical component that kept breaking? I fixed it... in Rust. Now nobody else can maintain it but me. Checkmate, management." And the 270 upvotes? That's 270 developers who've either done this or are taking notes.
