The Perfect Sorting Algorithm

The AUDACITY of modern game devs! Back in the golden era, we had absolute LEGENDS writing entire rendering pipelines IN ASSEMBLY like some kind of coding demigods! Meanwhile, today's devs are just throwing 999 dynamic lights and a MILLION blades of grass into their games, then having the NERVE to wonder why their masterpiece runs at a pathetic 20FPS on a $1500 graphics card! But don't worry, sweetie! DLSS will magically fix your horrifically optimized code! Because who needs actual optimization when you can just let AI upscale your disaster?! The optimization apocalypse is upon us!

When your junior dev asks "What's the modulo operator?" and you're too deep into your fifth coffee to explain basic math. Nothing says "I'm a professional" like hardcoding 50 if-statements to check if a number is even when return number % 2 == 0; would do the trick. But hey, at least it's thoroughly tested for numbers 1-22! The face in the corner is all of us reviewing this code during a PR. Silent horror.

The so-called "advanced AI" for processing insurance claims? Just a Python script that flips a coin! The code imports the random module and uses random.choice() to pick between "deny" and "approve" with equal probability. Next time your claim gets rejected, remember it wasn't because of your pre-existing condition—it was because RNGesus wasn't in your favor today. Sophisticated machine learning my foot! It's literally the computational equivalent of "eeny, meeny, miny, moe" but with fewer steps.

The existential crisis every new game developer faces when they realize their entire career is just figuring out how to make different shapes not pass through each other. After years of education and dreams of creating the next Elden Ring, it all boils down to "wait, is that box touching that other box?" and "why is this character's arm suddenly disappearing into the wall?" The veterans with the gun have always known the truth - collision detection is the real final boss that never goes away.

The absolute AUDACITY of this developer printing an entire chess board for EACH POSSIBLE MOVE! 😱 Instead of creating a simple reusable function, this maniac is hard-coding 2.6 MILLION lines to handle every chess position! It's the programming equivalent of writing out every word in the dictionary instead of just looking it up! The poor soul who has to review this code will need therapy AND a new keyboard after smashing the current one into oblivion. Chess programming doesn't have to be your villain origin story, people!

The paranoia is real. Nothing says "trust issues" like wrapping your calculator in parentheses just to make absolutely sure it calculates 2+3*4 as 2+(3*4) instead of (2+3)*4. That's the difference between getting 14 and 20, and I'm not taking any chances with my code logic. The calculator says it follows PEMDAS, but do I believe it? Absolutely not. Those extra parentheses are basically the programming equivalent of wearing both a belt AND suspenders.
