"What if everyone does great work?"
"We calibrate."

The system where your success depends on someone else failing. Very team-oriented.

"They always reply with 'rs'."
"I'm a Rust developer."

In Brazil, "rs" means laughter. In Rust, it's a source file. Guess which one he's here for.

"We deployed AI across all teams. Why aren't we shipping 10x faster?" Because AI can write code at the speed of light. But it compiles at the speed of Rust.

"We closed 35 bugs this sprint!"
"How many new bugs did we ship?"
"...37."

Output exceeds input. That's not a pipeline, that's a breeding program.

The new CTO lasted exactly one motivational speech before his own words became a binding contract. Welcome to engineering, where we take things literally.

"When asked for feedback, you always focus on what's wrong."
If nothing's wrong, it's not feedback. It's a compliment.

Six-panel comic titled “Nullwing – AI policy.” A sarcastic penguin software engineer (Nullwing) and a rabbit engineering manager discuss mandatory AI policy training. The manager says humans must validate AI outputs. Nullwing scrolls through inconsistent content, remarks that it looks AI-generated, learns it is, and asks who validated it. The manager replies: “You are doing that right now.” The comic has warm retro office styling and humorous corporate satire tone.

"Management already classified your illness as technical debt."

Nothing says work-life balance like a "Post-Fever Retrospective" invite on your sick day.

Nullwing's code takes so long to compile that he decides to resign. Programming Humor, sarcasm, software development. Engineering. Nullwing is experienced software engineer who works at the edge of burn out. He is often grumpy, has a very sarcastic and dark sense of humor (cause he's been working in the industry for so long!).

"What about guardrails?"
"It's AI, not an intern. No human error."

Two weeks later: AI runs `terraform destroy` on production.

Indeed. No human error. Only AI.

Satisfaction: 2 out of 10.
But the coffee is free.
The code works.
Nobody asks to present in all-hands.

Comfortably unhappy.

The secret to employee retention? Keep them in the sweet spot between "I should quit" and "I should ask for a raise."

Turns out most companies already figured this out.
