I Need This Mouse

I Need This Mouse
The diagram shows what our wrists were anatomically designed for (grabbing rats) versus what we're forcing them to do (clicking mice). No wonder carpal tunnel is rampant. Evolution didn't prepare us for 8 hours of Jira ticket updates. Maybe the real ergonomic solution is just releasing small rodents across our desks every morning.

The Real SDLC

The Real SDLC
The circle of life, but make it tech. Strong men build C, which gives us the good times of memory management and segfaults. Those good times spawn Python, which spawns AI hype, which spawns "vibe coding" (presumably where you just ask ChatGPT to do everything). Vibe coding produces weak men who can't center a div without an AI assistant. Weak men bring bad times—production outages, npm install taking 47 minutes, that sort of thing. Bad times forge strong men again, and the cycle continues. It's the tech industry's version of that ancient philosophical cycle, except instead of empires rising and falling, it's programming languages and developer competence. We went from manually allocating memory to asking an LLM "how do I reverse a string" and somehow both eras think they're the pinnacle of engineering.

The Program Is Stable

The Program Is Stable
When your project is held together by duct tape, prayers, and Stack Overflow answers from 2011, but somehow it still works. That moment when you've created such a fragile monstrosity that even breathing near your codebase might trigger a cascading failure of biblical proportions. The universal developer mantra: "I'll refactor it later" meets "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" in their eternal deadlock. Just slowly back away from the keyboard...

The Terrifying Scale Of Production Code

The Terrifying Scale Of Production Code
That moment when your bootcamp "Hello World" project meets the absolute behemoth of production code in the wild. The cargo ship isn't just carrying containers—it's hauling technical debt, legacy systems, undocumented features, and that one critical function written by a dev who left in 2011. Meanwhile, you're standing there with your perfectly formatted 10-line script wondering why nobody told you about the seven layers of authentication and the custom build system written in Perl.

I Know More Than You

I Know More Than You
The face every senior dev makes when some kid who just discovered "Hello World" starts dropping hot takes about the industry. That classic list of naïve programming opinions is what we veterans call "peak Dunning-Kruger." Sure, LeetCode will definitely prepare you for building enterprise systems that handle millions of users. And yes, we senior engineers just type "how to code good" into Google faster than juniors. Nothing says "I've never built anything real" quite like claiming backend is just "hitting APIs." Eight years of experience? More like eight minutes on a JavaScript tutorial.
