To Understand Recursion, First Understand Recursion

The only thing worse than being shot at? Someone pitching their "revolutionary app idea" with zero budget and expecting you to build it for exposure and a mythical share of future profits. That moment when you'd rather face armed soldiers than another person who thinks their "Uber but for dog walkers" concept is worth billions, yet they can't afford to pay you actual money. The best part? They always say "it's simple" right before describing something that would require a team of 20 engineers and six months of development. But hey, they're "idea people" - the hard part is already done!

The eternal delusions of every developer who thinks they're the next Zuckerberg. We've all been there – fueled by energy drinks and hubris, building that revolutionary app that's basically just a todo list with extra steps. The "I'll sleep when it's launched" guy hasn't seen his bed since Obama was president, while Mr. "Cutting-edge Stack" is just throwing every framework he read about on Hacker News into a tech soup that would make even the most patient senior dev quit on the spot. And my personal favorite – the "just one more feature" syndrome. That's how your simple weather app somehow ends up with a built-in cryptocurrency, social network, and dating platform. Meanwhile, your GitHub is a graveyard of half-finished repos that haven't been touched since 2018.

The perfect illustration of a developer's existence: frantically coding with the energy and focus of Baby Yoda during work hours, then immediately collapsing into a coma-like state the second the laptop closes. That magical transition from "I WILL SOLVE THIS BUG IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO" to "my bed is my only friend now" happens faster than a production server crashing after a Friday deployment. The duality of programmer life - either completely wired or completely tired, with absolutely no in-between state. Balance? Never heard of that framework.
