Everyone wants to be a CTO.Until they actually become one. From the outside, it looks powerful:big decisions, technical authority, respect, influence. From the inside?It’s chaos, pressure, politics — and a calendar that actively hates you. Here’s the brutal, unfiltered truth about CTO life that nobody warns you about. 1. You Stop Writing Code (And It…

Working in tech is wild.One minute you’re pushing code like a genius,the next minute you’re Googling “why does my function hate me?” It’s a world of late-night deploys, weird bugs, questionable decisions, and jokes that only make sense to people who haven’t slept in 36 hours. Welcome to Tech Life — the grind, the gags,…

Nobody hands you the source code for life.There’s no documentation.Half the functions are deprecated.And the main thread?Yeah, it’s blocking. But here’s the truth nobody tells you: Life is basically one giant debug session — and the faster you learn to treat it that way, the faster you start winning. Let’s break down the ultimate patch…

Let’s be honest. When most people hear the word “game,” they think of wasted time, distractions, and procrastination. But what if I told you that the most powerful leaders in the world secretly run their lives like a game — and that’s exactly why they win?

Then…I ate chocolate. What happened next shocked my whole engineering department. Hour 1: Despair The sprint was on fire. I stared at…

Every tech office eventually faces a terrifying, world-shaking question: Who would write cleaner, faster, more reliable code — a team of interns or a team of dogs? At first, the answer seems obvious.But after observing both species in their natural habitat (open-space офис под кофе и дедлайнами), the truth becomes much more chaotic. Welcome to…

Developers are brilliant.Developers are creative.Developers ship entire worlds made of code. But they also possess a supernatural gift:the ability to generate excuses so absurd, so chaotic, so galaxy-brained… that they practically compile on their own.
