The modern tech interview process in one painful frame. Looking at those shooting stars and wishing for the impossible – passing a coding interview without spending months memorizing obscure tree traversal algorithms that you'll never use in the actual job. Ten years of experience? Great! Now reverse this linked list while I watch you sweat. Meanwhile, the actual job is 90% googling how to center a div and wondering why your production code suddenly stopped working after a dependency updated by one minor version.

Ah, the elegant art of being simultaneously clever and ridiculous. This Python function is the programming equivalent of using a sledgehammer to kill a fly—with style. Instead of the boring old num % 2 == 0 check that peasant programmers use, this galaxy-brain developer created a string "eovdden" and indexes into it using num % 2 as the position, followed by another 2 (which does absolutely nothing). The string is cleverly arranged so position 0 gives "even" and position 1 gives "odd" — making this the most unnecessarily complex even/odd checker in existence. It's like building a Rube Goldberg machine when a light switch would do. And those sunglasses emojis? They know exactly what they've done. Pure chaotic evil masquerading as code.

The brutal truth of modern tech interviews! At home, you're basically Thanos with the infinity gauntlet of tools—VSCode, GitHub Copilot, DeepSeek, and other AI assistants making you feel like you could snap half the bugs out of existence. But the moment you step into that interview room? Suddenly you're Rhino from Spider-Man—sweating in a ridiculous costume while trying to remember how to reverse a linked list on a whiteboard. The cognitive dissonance between our tool-augmented daily coding superpowers and the bare-metal interview process is the ultimate developer identity crisis.

Oh. My. GOD! Someone finally made a meme about the most SCANDALOUS relationship in programming - logical operators and their dirty little word play! 💅 For the uninitiated (you sweet summer children), this is taking the word "orgasm" and applying different bitwise/logical operators to it: AND (bitwise conjunction) - only bits that are 1 in BOTH values remain XOR (exclusive OR) - when you're too good for regular OR and need bits that are in ONE BUT NOT BOTH values NAND (NOT AND) - because sometimes you need the EXACT OPPOSITE of AND, you rebellious thing! NOR (NOT OR) - when you're feeling extra negative and just want to say NO to everything XNOR (NOT XOR) - the drama queen of operators that's basically saying "I want us to be EITHER both 0 OR both 1, nothing in between!" I'm absolutely LIVING for this wordplay! The way programmers get excited about bitwise operations is the closest thing to passion most of them will ever experience!

Ah, the glorious isEven.js function with a chain of if-else statements that would make any senior dev weep into their coffee. Nothing says "I have a CS degree" like checking each number individually instead of using num % 2 === 0 . But honestly, that lakeside view is the real flex here. You're not coding like this because you don't have a six-figure remote job that lets you write terrible algorithms while overlooking a serene winter landscape. The code may be horrific, but that work-life balance is god-tier.

Ah, the infamous "Elon Sort" – the perfect algorithm if you hate both your data and your users. It's basically what happens when Silicon Valley hubris meets computer science. Fire half your array elements, realize you need them, bring them back in a completely random order, repeat this chaotic process an arbitrary number of times, then just lie about the results. Reminds me of every startup I've consulted for that claimed their ML algorithm was "revolutionary" when it was really just a glorified random number generator with a press release.
