The holy war that never ends. One dev asks if you use camelCase or PascalCase, and the other responds with the only sane answer: following your team's coding conventions. The first guy is basically that colleague who will die on the hill of their personal style preferences while the rest of us just want the codebase to be consistent so we can go home at a reasonable hour.

Product managers hold endless meetings about button colors and microinteractions while developers are out here wrestling with legacy codebases held together by duct tape and prayers. Your IDE crashes every 20 minutes, the build pipeline takes longer than a feature film, and the documentation was last updated when PHP 5 was still cool. But sure, let's spend another sprint optimizing the hover animation on that CTA button. Because nothing says "developer experience" like having to restart your local environment three times before lunch while using a framework with 47 breaking changes per minor version. DX is the forgotten stepchild of software development. Everyone wants their app to feel like butter, but nobody wants to invest in tooling that doesn't make developers want to fake their own death.

The gap between perception and reality in coding has never been more delicious. Your non-tech friend watches in awe as you type echo "Hello World" in a green-on-black terminal, convinced you're bypassing NASA's firewall, while you're just grilling the most basic program known to developers. The terminal is our BBQ pit - it looks impressive to outsiders but we're just cooking the same simple meat everyone starts with.

BEHOLD THE ABSOLUTE CARNAGE of showing a C++ developer how their precious 1000-line masterpiece can be reduced to 10 measly lines in Python! 💀 The sheer AUDACITY! Their entire programming IDENTITY crumbling before their eyes as their verbose semicolon-riddled monstrosity gets OBLITERATED by a few import statements and list comprehensions! It's not just code reduction—it's EMOTIONAL DAMAGE! The C++ dev's face literally MELTING OFF while the smug Python dev stands there with those glasses, practically RADIATING superiority! This isn't just programming language differences, this is PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE!
