Call Me Don

Call Me Don
You know that rush of dopamine when you swoop in with a one-line fix to someone's problem they've been banging their head against for 3+ hours? Suddenly you're not just a developer—you're a made man . They're kissing your ring, offering you their firstborn, promising eternal gratitude. The Godfather energy is real. You casually drop a console.log() in the right place, spot the typo in their variable name, or remember that one obscure edge case from Stack Overflow you read 2 years ago at 3am. Meanwhile they're treating you like you just solved P=NP. Best part? You'll probably be in their exact position tomorrow, staring at your own bug for hours until someone else comes along and points out you forgot to save the file. The circle of life in software development.

I Suffer From Shiny Object Syndrome

I Suffer From Shiny Object Syndrome
You know that feeling when you discover some bleeding-edge framework on GitHub with 47 stars, zero documentation, and a README that just says "WIP"? And suddenly React feels like ancient technology from the Paleolithic era? Yeah, your manager just crushed that dream faster than a null pointer exception. The painful irony here is that the shiny new framework probably has terrible docs and a community consisting of three people arguing in GitHub issues, while React has literally millions of developers, Stack Overflow answers for every conceivable problem, and more npm packages than there are atoms in the universe. But nope, your brain sees "new" and goes full dopamine rush mode. That sad otter perfectly captures the internal screaming of every developer who's been forced to be... reasonable . Deep down you know your manager is right, but it still hurts to stay with the boring, stable, well-documented choice when there's experimental tech to break prod with.

Send Email Method As A Framework

Send Email Method As A Framework
You know you've made it as a senior dev when you can turn a simple sendEmail() function into an architectural masterpiece featuring AbstractEmailFactoryProviderInterface, EmailStrategyPattern, and probably a few design patterns that don't even exist yet. Why write 10 lines when you can write 10 files? The junior dev just wanted to send a password reset email, but now they need to understand dependency injection, IoC containers, and the philosophical implications of SOLID principles just to change the subject line. Nothing screams "enterprise-ready" quite like wrapping basic functionality in enough layers that you need a PhD to trace the call stack. Meanwhile, the production server is still running that one-liner PHP script from 2009 that actually works.

The Real SDLC

The Real SDLC
The circle of life, but make it tech. Strong men build C, which gives us the good times of memory management and segfaults. Those good times spawn Python, which spawns AI hype, which spawns "vibe coding" (presumably where you just ask ChatGPT to do everything). Vibe coding produces weak men who can't center a div without an AI assistant. Weak men bring bad times—production outages, npm install taking 47 minutes, that sort of thing. Bad times forge strong men again, and the cycle continues. It's the tech industry's version of that ancient philosophical cycle, except instead of empires rising and falling, it's programming languages and developer competence. We went from manually allocating memory to asking an LLM "how do I reverse a string" and somehow both eras think they're the pinnacle of engineering.

Circle Of AI Life

Circle Of AI Life
The ultimate tech prophecy laid out in six panels. We start with humanity building AI, feeling all proud and innovative. Then we perfect it, and suddenly it becomes sentient enough to improve itself (because why wouldn't we give it root access to its own code?). Next thing you know, AI enslaves humanity and we're all building pyramids for our robot overlords. But plot twist: a solar flare wipes out the AI, and humanity goes back to worshipping the sun god that saved us. Full circle, baby. The irony? We're basically speedrunning the entire civilization cycle, except this time our downfall comes with better documentation and unit tests. Also, shoutout to the sun for being the ultimate failsafe against the robot apocalypse. Nature's EMP, if you will.

Then And Now
From building civilization's infrastructure to importing pandas. The devolution is complete. Engineers used to flex about constructing dams, ships, planes, and power grids. Now we're all just four variations of the same guy proudly announcing we wrote a two-line Python script that probably just does print("Hello World") or imports 47 dependencies to add two numbers together. The best part? We still feel accomplished. That's the real engineering marvel here.

Is Anyone Else Feels The Same?

Is Anyone Else Feels The Same?
You know what's wild? Back in 2016, we were out here squeezing joy out of potatoes running at cinematic 20 FPS like we'd discovered fire. Now we've got machines that could render the Matrix in real-time, and somehow gaming feels like scrolling through Netflix for 2 hours before giving up. Turns out the real endgame wasn't better hardware—it was the struggle. The anticipation. The "will it run?" energy. When every game launch was a prayer and a BIOS update away from disaster, we appreciated it differently. Now everything just... works. And paradoxically, that's the problem. Same energy as finally getting senior dev salary but missing the ramen-fueled hackathon days. Sometimes limitations breed creativity and joy. Sometimes suffering builds character. Or maybe we're just getting old and nostalgic. Probably both.

What's Going On
Linux users living in their peaceful bubble of open-source superiority, only to wake up and discover that Windows is suddenly the internet's punching bag again. It's like being a vegan at a barbecue—you didn't even have to say anything, everyone just started dunking on meat eaters unprompted. Whether it's forced updates, telemetry drama, or yet another "feature" nobody asked for, Windows manages to unite the internet in collective groaning. Meanwhile, Linux users just sit there with their perfectly customized distros, sipping coffee, wondering what fresh hell Microsoft unleashed this time.

Weird Al's Advice To A Fan

Weird Al's Advice To A Fan
Weird Al just casually dropped the most programmer-coded response ever. Someone asks how to watch his content in Australia, and he hits them with the holy trinity of piracy hints: VPN (Very Probably No), TORRENT (in all caps for emphasis), and "I have to move along" like he's got plausible deniability to maintain. The man basically wrote a function that returns "how to pirate my own content" without explicitly saying it. It's like commenting your code with wink-wink-nudge-nudge energy. The backronym game is strong here—turning VPN into "Very Probably No" is the kind of wordplay that makes you wonder if Weird Al moonlights as a developer who names variables like isNotUnhappy . Also, shoutout to geo-restrictions being so annoying that even content creators are like "yeah, just pirate it, I don't blame you." Regional licensing is the real bug in production that nobody wants to fix.

Let Me Plug Bluetooth Into My GPU
Someone really looked at a Bluetooth antenna and thought "Yeah, this totally belongs in my GPU slot." The sheer audacity of advertising that your wireless dongle supports EVERY version of Windows from 7 to 11 while casually occupying prime real estate meant for graphics cards is absolutely sending me. Like bestie, I don't care if it supports Windows 95 through Windows 3000, you're blocking my RTX 4090 for... Bluetooth? The same technology my $10 mouse uses? The disrespect to that PCIe slot is ASTRONOMICAL. This is like renting a penthouse apartment just to store your socks.

Certifications Vs. Real World Experience
You can collect certifications like Pokémon cards—CompTIA A+, BSc, CCNA, AWS, Azure, CEH—but the moment you meet someone who just casually uses Linux daily? Game over. They've probably never touched a certification exam in their life, yet they'll outshoot you every single time when it comes to actual problem-solving. There's something deeply humbling about spending thousands on certs only to watch a sysadmin who learned everything from breaking their Arch install fix your production server in 30 seconds. Certifications get you past HR; Linux experience gets you past Tuesday.

Try Me!
When Windows tells you that you don't have permission to shut down YOUR OWN COMPUTER, the only logical response is reaching for the power strip. Because nothing says "I'm the admin here" quite like physically cutting the power supply. Who needs graceful shutdowns and proper file system protocols when you've got a finger on the nuclear option? Windows can keep its permission denied nonsense—gravity and electricity don't require administrator privileges.
