How Come When I Left A Backdoor They All Lost Their Shit

Ah, the classic "$10,000/hour AWS bill of doom" scenario! This comic perfectly captures that moment when you realize your AWS keys have been chilling in public longer than that Minecraft world you've been building. 🙃 The best part? That well-meaning onboarding where someone tells you to rotate keys every "3-6 months" and you're like "totally, absolutely, 100%" while mentally filing that under "things I'll definitely forget until catastrophe strikes." Cloud security is just like flossing - everyone knows they should do it regularly, but somehow we're all too busy playing Minecraft to remember until our teeth (or AWS account) are on fire. 🔥💸

Ah, the eternal UUID debate! On the left, we have the paranoid dev who's spent 72 hours straight reading cryptography papers and now can't sleep because "UUIDs might collide." Meanwhile, Chad on the right just generates two UUIDs and ships to production because he knows the odds of collision are astronomically low—like finding a bug-free JavaScript framework or someone who actually reads documentation. The virgin worrier vs. the chad pragmatist is the perfect representation of our industry's endless theoretical debates that waste time while Chad's already on his third product launch.

GitHub Copilot silently judging your spaghetti code while simultaneously ingesting it for "training purposes." The awkward bat face is basically Copilot's internal reaction when it sees your proprietary algorithms and realizes they're worth exactly $0.00 on the black market. Turns out your paranoia about AI stealing company secrets was justified, but for all the wrong reasons.

Oh look, the world's most useless verification screen! They literally display the code right above the input boxes. Security experts everywhere just felt a disturbance in the force. This is what happens when the product manager says "make verification simple" and the developer takes it a bit too literally. The kind of code that makes penetration testers cry tears of joy during security audits. Somewhere, a junior dev is proudly announcing they've reduced failed verification attempts by 100%.

Look at all these fancy apps you're allowed to install, and the IT admin's like "But for coding? Notepad++ is all you need, buddy!" That's like giving a chef a plastic knife and saying "What? It cuts, doesn't it?" Meanwhile, developers at other companies are using the coding equivalent of a fully-equipped kitchen with robot assistants. Nothing says "we value your productivity" quite like forcing you to code without syntax highlighting, auto-completion, or debugging tools. But hey, at least you've got Chrome to Google "how to quit job without burning bridges."

The ultimate IT hostage situation! Dennis Nedry knew exactly what he was doing when he said "I'm the only IT person here. Pay me what I'm worth." It's the tech equivalent of having the nuclear codes. Every company that runs on a single sysadmin is basically Jurassic Park waiting to happen. "Oh, you want documentation? That'll be another $50K. Want me to fix the critical bug at 3am? Hope you've got premium support!" Hammond's reluctant "I'm not happy about it... but OK" is every CEO who just realized their entire operation depends on that weird guy with root access and a questionable fashion sense. If only they'd hired a backup dev before building a park full of murder lizards...
