GitHub is all professional and polished, looking like it just stepped out of a corporate photoshoot. StackOverflow is giving you that knowing smirk—it's seen some things, answered some questions, probably roasted a few newbies who didn't format their code properly. Then there's your actual code, which looks like it was drawn by someone having a fever dream during a hackathon at 4 AM.
The reality is that your GitHub repos look pristine with their README files and organized commits, while StackOverflow solutions seem elegant and well-thought-out. But when you actually open your codebase? It's a Frankenstein's monster of copy-pasted snippets, TODO comments from 2019, and functions named "doTheThing2_FINAL_actuallyFinal_v3". The gap between what your code looks like in your head versus what it actually is could fit the entire JavaScript ecosystem in it.
