When Your IDE Becomes Your English Teacher

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of that guy who quit last week! "It's all in the documentation," he said with a straight face while leaving us with what appears to be LITERAL HIEROGLYPHICS! 🙄 You know what's worse than no documentation? Documentation that requires a PhD in Ancient Egyptian Studies and a time machine! Like, sweetie, unless you're expecting us to hire the ghost of Indiana Jones as a consultant, maybe write something in ACTUAL ENGLISH next time? The rest of us are now stuck playing archaeological code detective, desperately trying to decipher if that bird symbol means "critical database function" or "I was bored on a Tuesday." Truly the ultimate revenge of a departed developer!

Oh how the tables have turned! In the first panel, he's all calm about a sad movie while she's emotional. But when a runtime error hits? The man is DESTROYED while she's like "whatever, just another Tuesday in code land." The perfect role reversal that captures the soul-crushing moment when your code breaks for the 47th time today and you're left wondering why you didn't become a farmer instead. Runtime errors don't care about your feelings or your deadline—they just want to watch you suffer.

Content So if it's proper coding practice to comment code, why don't we? rebutch99 OH, BILLY. WE DON'T ACTUALLY PRACTICE THESE THINGS. WE ONLY PREACH THEM.

So you're telling me a game dev can spawn a LITERAL DEMON erupting from molten lava with particle effects and physics calculations that would make Einstein weep, but adding a scarf to the player model? Suddenly we're asking them to solve world hunger. The absolute AUDACITY of suggesting something as simple as cloth physics after they just casually coded an apocalyptic hellspawn summoning ritual. It's giving "I can build a rocket ship but I can't fold a fitted sheet" energy. Game development priorities are truly an enigma wrapped in a riddle, served with a side of spaghetti code.

Ah, the classic "we want to exploit you but make it sound like opportunity" post. This CTO thinks wanting a guaranteed salary is a red flag, but his actual red flags are waving harder than a windmill in a hurricane: ✅ "Lines of code" as a performance metric ✅ Gamified "leaderboard" to pit devs against each other ✅ Mocking stable income as "playing it safe" ✅ Expecting "tens of thousands of lines per day" (physically impossible) ✅ Belittling testing and maintainable code Translation: "I want desperate coders who'll work 80-hour weeks chasing a bonus they'll never quite reach while I pay them peanuts." After 20 years in this industry, I've learned that any company measuring productivity by line count is where good code goes to die. The truly elite developers I know write less code, not more.
