Programmer's Day Eve: a 4-panel comic + 10 classic quotes

Happy Programmers' Day! Why Oct 24? Because 2^10 = 1024, and 1 KB = 1024 bytes.

A 4-panel comic:

1. 5:55 p.m. — Wang closes his laptop: "Leaving on time today!"
2. 5:58 p.m. — Team chat: "You there? Small issue in production."
3. He quietly puts his bag down and opens the laptop.
4. 1 a.m. — Found it: an extra space in a config file.

Sound familiar?

10 classic dev quotes — how many have you said?

• "Works on my machine."
• "The requirement is simple; how you build it is your problem."
• "It's not a bug, it's a feature."
• "Just one more fix, then I'm off." (3 hours later)
• "Who wrote this mess?" (git blame: me)
• "Ship now, optimize later."
• "The code is the documentation."
• "I only changed one line."
• "Have you tried restarting?"
• "Let's deal with it tomorrow."

One genuinely useful tip: every time a late night uncovers a gotcha, spend 3 minutes writing it into the team docs — symptom, cause, fix. Next time someone hits "the extra space", it's a 5-minute fix.

Zero bugs, frozen specs, home on time! Which quote is yours?
