In software, a do {…} while(true) loop never ends. Young engineers are fed to the hungry, gaping maw of modern software development, blissfully unaware of the fate that awaits them.
Sprint after sprint, ticket after ticket, "just one more deploy" quietly colonizes evenings, weekends, squeezing unapologetically into the space that used to belong to family.
The code compiles. Or not. The tests pass. Or not. The build succeeds. Or not. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
A stark, Kafkaesque novel of modern work and the quiet destruction it can visit on a family, do while true is the story of a life compiled under pressure until nothing of the original design survives.
For every developer who has stared at a screen long after the house went dark, and for every partner or child who has learned to live with the cold, green glow.
