Vibe Coders Hitting Accept All

Content When Senior Developer said it wasn't difficult. Senior Junior Middle

The serene family gazing at the future of C++ stands on a foundation built with the blood, sweat, and tears of developers maintaining ancient C++98 codebases. Nothing says "software engineering career" like spending your days fighting with 25-year-old pointer arithmetic and manual memory management while dreaming of smart pointers and auto type deduction. Those legacy maintainers are literally drowning in a sea of undefined behavior while management cheerfully talks about "eventual migration plans." The contrast is brutal - modern C++ developers get to enjoy lambda functions and move semantics while the legacy warriors are still debugging segfaults from the Clinton administration.

When asked about a disliked programming language, this dev chose violence and went after English itself. Comparing our native tongue to a poorly designed programming language is painfully accurate. The semicolon usage is indeed arbitrary; we've got silent letters that contribute nothing; and try explaining "their/there/they're" to someone learning English without sounding like you're describing a bizarre legacy codebase. And don't get me started on the grammar police who act like linters with all warnings set to errors. No namespaces either—just ask anyone named John Smith about namespace collisions.

The tiniest function in the codebase, yet somehow has the most dramatic documentation. That empty function with a novel-length comment explaining why we don't use it is the programming equivalent of buying gym equipment just to hang clothes on it. The best part? It's private, so nobody else will ever see your shame. That's not technical debt—it's a historical artifact preserved for future archaeologists to puzzle over.
