Today, I was told to investigate why the software doesn't work on "some" computers. I had no previous experience with that particular software but I just had to make some tests... easy, right? As soon as I ran the software, my computer crashed (I literally had to restart the pc). I asked my colleagues if I did something wrong but the set up seemed ok.

Later, in a random discussion about the software I found out it does "a little memory allocation". I opened the performance tab in task manager and ran the software again. In an instant, the RAM went from 1.3GB to 7.66GB (my pc has 8GB of RAM).

In an attempt to find how such a monstrosity was creater, I found out the developer that made the software had 16GB of RAM on his pc.

I have found something that eats RAM more than Chrome... brace yourselves.

Is it just me, or the devs like playing with the Rubik's cube?

Biggest distraction: finding the right playlist on Spotify to code on. (The search takes all the while)

A wise man once said:

Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.

Don't know if it's up here, found it on r/ProgrammerHumor and thought it deserved to be shared :)
