The NP-Complete Packing Problem

The beautiful art of recursive self-torture. The function why_are_you_hitting_yourself() calls itself inside its own definition, creating an infinite loop of self-abuse that would make any compiler cry. Then main() joins the party by calling it too. It's the programming equivalent of that childhood game where your older sibling grabs your hand and makes you slap your own face while asking "why are you hitting yourself?" Except in this case, the function is both the bully and the victim. Infinite recursion without a base case - because who needs stack memory anyway?

Forced to code instead of pondering existence? Congrats, you've stumbled into the Ship of Theseus paradox anyway! This Python code brilliantly implements the ancient philosophical question: if you replace every part of a ship, is it still the same ship? The code compares two identical ASCII art ships and concludes they're the same despite replacements - exactly what philosophers have argued about for centuries. Your parents thought they were steering you away from "useless" philosophy, but here you are, solving metaphysical puzzles with a text editor instead of a quill. Checkmate, practical career advice.

The coding competition iceberg goes deeper than you thought. While you're there debugging like a normal human, "Hackerman" is downing Adderall and automating solutions, "-mhfwalters" is solving APL puzzles on obsolete hardware for fun, and "wjhbr" is typing at superhuman speeds in Vim while making bank in some mysterious Eastern European tech paradise. Let's not even talk about "Tharg" who mentally compiles assembly code or the Chinese prodigy who can only see matrix-like problem solutions. Meanwhile, you're still trying to figure out why your IDE took so long to start up. Participation trophy for you.

Classic off-by-one error in the wild. Six candles for a 26th birthday because arrays start at zero. The cake compiler didn't throw any errors, so clearly it's working as intended. That chocolate frosting looks suspiciously like a failed merge conflict resolution.

Behold, peak technological innovation! Reddit admins fighting the AI menace with... *checks notes*... a string comparison. Next up: solving climate change by searching for the word "hot" and deleting those posts too. The irony of using the most basic Python script imaginable to combat advanced AI is just *chef's kiss*. Somewhere, a CS professor is weeping into their algorithms textbook.

The modern tech interview in its natural habitat! On one side, we have Bane (the imposing villain) representing candidates with fancy degrees and internships at Big Tech, flexing their impressive credentials. And then there's Pink Guy (in all his awkward glory) sneaking into the interview with nothing but a single solved LeetCode medium problem. This perfectly captures the absurdity of tech hiring where theoretical knowledge often trumps practical skills. Companies be like: "Oh, you built an entire e-commerce platform from scratch? Cool story. Now reverse this binary tree while I watch you sweat." The confidence gap is just *chef's kiss*.
