Y'all Are Web Devs Right?

Spent years building robust backend systems with proper architecture, only to be humbled by frontend development where apparently everything is "for babies." Nothing prepares you for the existential crisis of realizing your complex microservices are worthless if users can't click a button that's properly centered. The kid at the bottom is all of us after a week of trying to align divs with CSS. You start questioning your life choices when a simple margin: auto refuses to work for reasons beyond mortal comprehension.

Forget your fancy synthetic benchmarks and Crysis runs—the true test of any GPU's worth is whether it can render a photorealistic 3D rat at a smooth 165 FPS. Because nothing says "cutting-edge graphics performance" quite like a chonky rodent spinning in the void. Someone actually built this as a WebGL benchmark tool, and honestly? It's more entertaining than watching progress bars. Your $2000 RTX 4090 better be able to handle those fur shaders, or what's even the point? The rat judges all. The top-left corner shows a glorious 165 FPS at 165 Hz—clearly running on hardware that respects the rat. If your machine can't handle the bigrat, maybe it's time to upgrade. Or just accept that you'll be stuck at 30 FPS looking at a slightly less majestic rodent.

Ah, the classic "Models" folder misunderstanding. Non-developers expecting glamour shots but finding TypeScript interfaces instead. Your significant other just discovered you're in a committed relationship with clean architecture patterns. The disappointment on her face says it all – she was hoping for something scandalous but only found evidence that you spend Friday nights organizing data structures. Tragic.

The four-panel reality check of developer existence! Society thinks we're hardware wizards fixing computers with screwdrivers. Parents imagine us as brilliant scientists revolutionizing technology. We fantasize we're algorithm-designing geniuses solving complex mathematical equations. Meanwhile, the brutal truth: frantically Googling "How to use dates in JavaScript" for the 47th time this week. Because no matter how many years of experience you have, the JavaScript Date object remains an eldritch horror that no mortal should have to comprehend without Stack Overflow as a spiritual guide.

When your code says "Error on line 265" but line 265 is just a single curly brace. The absolute betrayal! That innocent little "}" sitting there, taking the blame for someone else's crimes. Meanwhile, the REAL culprit is probably a missing semicolon from 200 lines ago that's been silently plotting your downfall since coffee break. JavaScript's idea of a practical joke is to make debugging feel like trying to find a ninja in a dark room.

Education: "Plagiarism is unacceptable!" Programmers: "I found this on Stack Overflow" = "I have achieved innovation." The sacred ritual of copying code and pretending you didn't is basically the unofficial programmer handshake. Your professor would fail you for copying an essay, but your tech lead will silently judge you for not stealing that sorting algorithm. Why reinvent the wheel when someone else's wheel has 457 upvotes and works in production?
