Santa's Code Review Policy

Ah yes, the classic tech job paradox: "Entry-level position: requires decade of experience." This baby's getting a head start on their career by diving into HTML before they can even form sentences. Next week they'll be building responsive websites, and by preschool, they'll be architecting enterprise solutions with 15 years of React experience (despite React only existing for 10). The tech industry's expectations are so reasonable that we're now forcing infants to skip crawling and go straight to coding. Cradle to keyboard pipeline is real.

The evolution of README files is getting out of hand! Starting with the basic README.md for normies, then leveling up to README.txt for the slightly cooler devs. But wait—README.pdf?! That's for those documentation wizards who want their formatting PERFECT. And README.mp4? That's galaxy-brain territory for devs who explain their code with ACTUAL VIDEOS! But the final form—Morse code on a telegraph machine—that's for the absolute legends who communicate in ways even Git can't track! Your commit messages may be bad, but at least you're not sending them via telegraph... yet! 😂

OMG, the AUDACITY of Python developers complaining about simplicity while PHP is over here literally threatening your code with DEATH! 💀 Like, honey, PHP doesn't ask politely - it's either doThis() or DIE. No negotiation, no therapy session, just pure ultimatum energy. Meanwhile, Python devs are throwing tantrums because their language is TOO USER-FRIENDLY? The DRAMA! The IRONY! I can't even... 🙄

The stereotype has officially achieved boss-level status. After 15 years in the industry, I've watched countless devs disappear into the coding void only to emerge with new GitHub profiles and anime avatars. The pipeline from "I'll just fix this one bug" to "3AM coding sessions fueled by energy drinks while questioning existence" is basically industry standard at this point. Your IDE becomes your personality and your commit history your social life. The real secret gender is clearly "programmer with 27 unfinished side projects."

Frontend: neat, organized embroidery with perfect patterns. Backend: the unholy tangle of threads that actually makes it work but looks like a dumpster fire behind the scenes. This is why "full stack" developers are just people who've accepted that half their work will always look like a crime scene. You either die a frontend dev or live long enough to become the person muttering "it works, don't touch it" while staring at spaghetti code that somehow powers a billion-dollar company.

The eternal lie we tell ourselves: "It works on my machine!" Left side: Your code running on localhost - a magnificent beast with muscles that could bench press a server rack. Status 200, everything's perfect, and you're basically a coding god. Right side: The same exact code after deployment - a pathetic, malnourished doggo surrounded by CORS errors, cookie sharing issues, and bad requests. Suddenly your beautiful creation is about as functional as a chocolate teapot. The production environment: where developer confidence goes to die and debugging nightmares begin. But hey, at least it worked in development!
