Am I Testing The Code Or Is The Code Testing Me

Content POV: you studied computers and the test is on paper

The duality of coding confidence! On the left, the TDD practitioner smugly smiles because their tests were written before the code, so green tests actually mean something. On the right, the dark side reveals the non-TDD developer's twisted grin—sure, all tests are green, but only because they wrote tests that validate whatever garbage they already implemented. It's like measuring your height with a ruler you made yourself. "Look mom, I'm 7 feet tall!"

That unique mixture of concern and barely contained glee when production crashes and burns, but your code isn't the culprit. First panel: professional concern for the team. Second panel: desperately suppressing the urge to say "not my module" in the emergency Slack channel. The schadenfreude is palpable. Sure, you'll help debug... right after you finish that coffee you suddenly need.

This is peak programming education right here! A function called getRandomNumber() that just returns 4 with a comment claiming it was "chosen by fair dice roll" and "guaranteed to be random." The irony is delicious. It's like saying "I'll pick a random card from this deck" and then always grabbing the ace of spades while maintaining eye contact. The "!false" with "It's funny because it's true" is the chef's kiss of programmer humor. This is basically what happens when you ask a junior dev to implement a random number generator after they've had three energy drinks and zero sleep.
