When One More Feature Breaks The Universe

Ah, feature creep—the silent killer of elegant architecture. What started as a beautiful, simple interchange suddenly turns into the LA freeway system from hell because some product manager said "wouldn't it be cool if we added just one more thing?" The best part? That "one more thing" breaks twelve other things you didn't even know were connected. Welcome to maintenance hell, population: you.

If Devs Were D&D Classes

Ah, the sacred scrolls of developer archetypes. The Barbarian who worships C and recites man pages is just your average Unix greybeard who thinks anything after Perl is heresy. The Rogue is basically every crypto bro with questionable ethics and a VPN. Wizards are those mythical 10x developers whose code is so advanced no one can maintain it after they leave. Clerics are the TDD zealots who'd rather write tests than actually ship anything. And Druids? Just sysadmins who've spent so much time in server rooms they've started identifying as network packets. I've worked with all five. The Druid still owes me $20 and insists I call him "FoxTail69" at happy hour.

How To Say No (In Programming Logic)

The eternal programming tragedy: in English, "!yes" is a weird way to say "no," but in code, it's literally the opposite of "yes." The poor programmer reads "!yes" as "not yes" (FALSE) when the person meant an excited "yes!" Now they're crying while the English speaker happily moves on. Classic language barrier between humans and machines that's been causing relationship disasters since the first semicolon.
