And you've rewritten it by 11 am, wondering why you didn't go sleep at a decent hour.

Memories of college days gone by.

Just get your rest folks. Work isn't going to give you a medal for "most late nights" or "closest flirtation with burnout". If your boss hasn't allocated enough resources to reach the goal timeline, you tell them as soon as you realize and then it's their problem.

6 hours later? Get some fucking sleep, code will be better.

I've had this run in both directions. Going through the repos a day later: "Holy hell, this solution is [utter shit || truly inspired || elegant AF || written by someone who should probably be fired]. Who wrote this? Me?! I don't remember any of this."

The compartmentalization/fugue state is real.

The senior dev on my team does this on a daily basis.

Then the rest of the team gets confused how to use his code because he's buried it in a dozen layers of abstractions.

happens to me when i'm drunk; but not too drunk. lol

The 3 days it takes me to unfuck 2AM work should teach me a lesson.

But it dornt

Is that the He-man castle from the 80s?

Wait you guys are still writing your own code?
