| Phase | Activity | Internal Monologue |
|---|---|---|
| The Spark | Writing 3 lines of code. | "I am a literal god of logic." |
| The Reality | Running the code. | "147 errors? In 3 lines? How?" |
| The Investigation | Googling the error. | "Why is the top result a purple link from 2012?" |
| The "Fix" | Copy-pasting from StackOverflow. | "I don't know what refactor_entropy() does, but the errors are gone." |
| The Conclusion | Closing the laptop. | "Works on my machine. Shipping it." |
The Flowchart
- Start Task
- Spend 2 hours choosing a VS Code theme.
- Write a function called
do_thing(). - Realize
do_thing()broke the entire production database. - Fix it by deleting the function and pretending it never happened.
- Update Jira: "Completed architectural optimization."
