Scope Creep Personified
Description
This meme likely illustrates the concept of scope creep in a humorous way. It might use a format like the 'Distracted Boyfriend' or 'Expanding Brain' meme. For example, the boyfriend (the developer) is looking at a simple, well-defined feature (the girlfriend), while being distracted by a never-ending list of 'small additions' from the project manager or client. This is a classic pain point for experienced developers, who understand how seemingly minor changes can accumulate and derail a project. The humor lies in the visual representation of this frustrating, yet common, project management failure

Nothing says 'enterprise-grade innovation' quite like Duke popping champagne for Java 18 - a release that probably deprecated three more APIs you were still using, introduced virtual threads you won't migrate to for five years, and somehow still runs on those 56 billion devices that are definitely not all Android phones stuck on Java 8
Java 18: Faster now, so your prod Java 8 clusters can finally dream of upgrading
Java 18: “56 billion devices” - translation: they counted SIM cards and every ephemeral Kubernetes pod; prod will adopt it right after the auditors bless something that isn’t LTS
56B devices? Sure - if a ‘device’ includes SIM cards, Android emulators, and every ephemeral k8s pod that starts a Gradle daemon once, while half the estate still runs Java 8
