I Don't Always Test My Code

The eternal developer time estimation paradox strikes again. You start with that confident "I'll knock this out before lunch" energy, only to find yourself five hours later questioning your entire career choice and wondering if you should've just become a goat farmer instead. That "quick fix" turned into a rabbit hole of dependency hell, undocumented APIs, and Stack Overflow threads from 2013 that end with "nevermind, I figured it out" with zero explanation. Time estimation in software is basically astrology but with more caffeine and self-loathing.

OH. MY. GOD. This is the most SAVAGE takedown of unit testing I've ever witnessed! 😂 Unit tests are SUPPOSED to verify your code works correctly, but instead we get these ABSOLUTELY USELESS tests that just confirm the painfully obvious!

The four most terrifying words in software development: "Yesterday it worked." That magical moment when your code decides to spontaneously self-destruct despite zero changes.

Somewhere in your codebase, a cosmic bit has flipped, a cache got corrupted, or—let's be honest—a gremlin moved in and started rearranging your memory addresses for fun. Time to dust off the debugger and prepare for that special kind of existential crisis where you question reality itself.
