Can't Have Data In Detroit

When you mistake a celebrity's keyboard smash for your RSA private key. The irony is delicious - spending hours securing your system only to accidentally paste Lady Gaga's random tweet as your encryption key. The real security vulnerability was between the keyboard and chair all along. Pro tip: If your private key looks like it could've been generated by a pop star having a seizure on their keyboard, maybe double-check before deploying to production.

Junior dev thinks they're getting a friendly tutorial. Senior dev is actually showing them the 17 security vulnerabilities they introduced last week, the database schema they mangled, and why their "clever" one-liner will crash in production. That intense stare isn't mentorship—it's barely contained rage disguised as "teaching moments."

HONEY, I'VE SEEN THINGS YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE! Entire production databases vanishing into the void because some poor soul thought their manual Friday backup ritual was enough! THE HORROR! 😱 Listen up, sweethearts - if you're still clicking that backup button like it's 1999, you're basically playing Russian roulette with your career. Automation isn't just fancy - it's the ONLY thing standing between you and that 3AM call where you explain to the CEO why the company now exists only in your memories! 💀

Ah yes, the forbidden Python technique: dynamic imports with globals injection . Because why use normal imports when you can write code that makes your security team have nightmares? This beautiful disaster is bypassing Python's import system by directly manipulating the global namespace. It's like breaking into your own house through the chimney when you have perfectly good keys in your pocket. The regular expression module "re" is just sitting there wondering why it got dragged into this abomination. Meanwhile, some poor code reviewer is probably questioning their career choices right now.

Nothing says "I'm a real software engineer" quite like random people asking you to hack Instagram accounts. The true initiation ritual isn't getting your degree or landing that first job—it's when your aunt's neighbor's cousin's dog walker thinks you're basically Anonymous because you can fix the Wi-Fi. Welcome to the club. Your complimentary caffeine addiction and existential dread are in the mail.

Behold, the classic tech startup lifecycle: "I built this with no-code tools!" → "Help, I'm being hacked because I have no idea what I'm doing!" Nothing says "technical founder" like bragging about using Cursor AI to build your entire SaaS product, then acting shocked when your security falls apart like wet toilet paper. Meanwhile, actual developers are charging $1,000/hour to clean up the AI-generated spaghetti code. The "I'm not technical" confession after claiming AI built everything is just *chef's kiss*. Turns out you still need to understand what you're doing. Who knew?
