The Dictator's Guide To Arrays

OH. MY. GOD. The "super intelligent" AI can't even grasp the most BASIC rule of chess?! 🙄 White moves first, sweetie! The fact that ChatGPT confidently makes the first move while playing black and then has the AUDACITY to suggest the same move to the human player is just... *chef's kiss* peak AI incompetence. This is why we're still light-years away from true AGI, people! Can't even handle a simple board game without a total meltdown of logic. And yet the tech bros keep screaming "THE SINGULARITY IS COMING!!!" Sure, Jan. Maybe teach your precious AI to play chess first? 💅

Your brain at 2AM, hitting you with useless programming trivia that will haunt you forever: The string "()()" isn't a palindrome because reading it backward gives ")()(", but "()(" is a palindrome because it reads as ")(" backward - which is the same when you consider parentheses as characters. The kind of revelation that makes you question your life choices and wonder why you're still awake contemplating bracket symmetry instead of sleeping like a normal human.

The kid's already mastered zero-based indexing at age 7! While most humans start counting from 1, this tiny programmer instinctively numbers pages as 0, 1, 2... just like arrays in most programming languages. The parent might think it's cute artwork, but we're witnessing the birth of a future software engineer who intuitively understands that memory allocation starts at position 0. Nature vs nurture debate settled - some people are just born to code.

The peak of cryptographic security: using a wall of lava lamps as entropy source! The first panel shows a dev asking for a random number generator. The second panel proudly displays Cloudflare's actual wall of lava lamps that captures unpredictable fluid motion to generate truly random numbers. Meanwhile, the other devs are utterly unimpressed because... well, they probably expected Math.random() like normal humans. Little do they know this bizarre contraption is actually genius-level randomness engineering that powers internet security for millions of websites. Cryptography's greatest flex disguised as retro office decor.

Ah, the modern tech interview process in its final form. History major memorizes 500 LeetCode questions and gets hired at FAANG without knowing how to code. Meanwhile, senior devs with 10 years experience get rejected because they couldn't reverse a binary tree on a whiteboard fast enough. The system works perfectly. No notes.

Ah, the classic marketing vs. reality divide. Developers know that what they built is just a simple counter algorithm that goes from 1 to 10, but marketing swoops in and suddenly it's "AI POWERED™" with a trademark symbol because god forbid we call things what they actually are. After 20 years in this industry, I've seen "revolutionary AI" that was just a bunch of if-statements wrapped in a fancy UI. The trademark symbol is the chef's kiss of bullshit – nothing says "we're pretending this is special" quite like a completely unnecessary ™.
