Writing Cryptic Comments as a Form of Documentation Strategy

Picture this: you’re diving into a legacy codebase at 2 AM, desperately hunting for a bug, when you stumble upon a comment that reads // Here be dragons followed by 200 lines of the most convoluted logic you’ve ever seen.

Ageism in Tech: The Great Senior Developer Purge Debate

Let’s get one thing straight: ageism in tech isn’t just informational – it’s algorithmic. We’re watching a silent revolution where “Teams just streamlining processes” often masks “Shuffling greener devs to the front of the queue”. But before we burn our keyboard CEOs in effigy, let’s parse the code. The Code 42 Dilemma: Replacing Humans with “Smart” Systems “If you think you’re irreplaceable because of who you are, you’re doomed. If you think you’re irreplaceable because of what you do, you’re also doomed....
