In a shiny, new world made by a programmer, <\/strong>one might see their creation and go, \u2018yeah, that\u2019s probably good,\u2019 but bugs may lie just below the surface\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n

\"If<\/figure>\n\n\n

This comic was created by the developers behind\u00a0Toggl \u2013 the world\u2019s most accurate time tracking app<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So what else have you been working on?<\/h2>\n

Other than making an\u00a0app that feels like a money button when you hit start, we\u2019ve also been making lots of these comics.<\/p>\n

You might enjoy this strip explaining\u00a0IT jobs with a broken light bulb or this one that looks at all the types of questions support staff are asked.<\/p>\n

If you work at an agency, you\u2019ll probably appreciate our illustrated guide to the\u00a0Seven Circles of Development Hell. Also, we have ranked the\u00a0worst kinds of web dev clients using pirates.<\/p>\n

I dig these, will there be more?<\/h2>\n

First of all, thanks!<\/p>\n

Secondly, this and most of our comics are written by an artificially intelligent robot that generates jokes by scraping the darkest and friendliest parts of the internet. It seems to have reached some sort of sentience and won\u2019t stop mumbling about existential dread. But if we can figure out how to fix Mart 3000s new \u2018feature,\u2019 we\u2019ll definitely be bringing you some more of these comics in the future.<\/p>\n

If you like these comics, give us like us on Facebook<\/a> or follow us on Twitter<\/a> so you can get these pieces of comic art delivered right to the place you waste all your time anyway! (sorry, Reddit)<\/p>\n

In the meantime, give Toggl a spin (by clicking anything that looks like a CTA on this page). If you\u2019re a programmer, chances are you\u2019ll need a time tracker.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
