A Type Pun

Someone at Microsoft thought writing C code in PowerShell was a brilliant idea. That's like trying to perform brain surgery with a pizza cutter. The tab literally says "PowerShell" but they're writing C code with main() and argc/argv parameters—the terminal equivalent of wearing socks with sandals. Microsoft finally upgrading the default terminal while developers everywhere scream internally at whoever created this promo image. Ten bucks says the person who made this screenshot has "proficient in C++" on their resume but thinks pointers are what you use to click things.

Oh, the classic language rivalry strikes again! This pun works on multiple levels - Python devs "can't C" because they're coding in Python instead of C, and they supposedly need glasses because Python's clean syntax doesn't require squinting at all those curly braces, semicolons, and pointer arithmetic that C programmers have burned into their retinas after decades of eye strain. It's the programming equivalent of saying "What's a turn signal?" to a BMW driver. The smug expression in the bottom panel really sells it - that's the face of someone who thinks whitespace indentation is a personality trait.

The CS freshman starter pack is brutally accurate! They write "Hello World" once and suddenly have 4 programming languages on their LinkedIn. Their entire development environment consists of VS Code and GitKraken because the terminal is "scary." Their idea of deployment? Submitting assignments through Canvas. They'll spend hours hunting for that missing semicolon while sharing Boromir memes, and their entire personality revolves around the Minecraft-inspired "noob vs pro" dichotomy. The gatekeeping begins before they've even built anything substantial!

Ah yes, the classic "assign string values to boolean variables and then use them in boolean expressions" approach. Nothing like setting true = "false" and false = "true" to ensure your future self has a mental breakdown during debugging. The condition if(true/false==false/true) is just *chef's kiss* - comparing divisions of strings masquerading as booleans. And that true = false + false line? String concatenation disguised as addition in a boolean context. Whoever wrote this probably also enjoys putting pineapple on pizza and using spaces instead of tabs.

The code shows a comment that says "Only gay people use auto" followed by a classic C++ for loop. The irony? The programmer is using cout and other C++ features while shunning the auto keyword that automatically deduces variable types. It's like saying "I only drink artisanal water" while chugging Mountain Dew. The real programmer flex isn't avoiding modern language features—it's writing code that doesn't make your colleagues contemplate career changes.

The eternal struggle of meeting parental expectations in the programming world. C++ is a perfectly respectable language that powers everything from operating systems to game engines, but it's not an A++. In the academic grading system where Asian parents stereotypically demand perfection, a C is basically a failure. The compiler doesn't care about your family's honor, kid.
