How You Look Like Based On Your Favourite Programming Language

The Linux kernel devs have spoken! Why bother with those pesky GNU coding standards when you can just set them on fire? It's the ultimate programmer power move. Forget tabs vs spaces debates - we're now in the "print and burn your style guide" era. Torvalds would be proud of this chaotic energy. Nothing says "I write kernel code my way" like the ashes of formatting rules gently floating away...

Dennis Ritchie invented C in 1972. Anders Hejlsberg invented C# in 2000. Now some random guy with a webcam and a dream invented "C~slop" in 2026. The natural evolution of programming languages, really. From foundational systems programming to enterprise-friendly managed code to... whatever AI-generated fever dream we're about to endure. The progression of facial expressions tells you everything you need to know. Ritchie looks dignified and accomplished. Hejlsberg looks professional and pleased with his work. Random webcam guy looks like he just discovered he can prompt ChatGPT to write an entire programming language and is way too excited about it. Can't wait for the Hacker News thread where people debate whether C~slop is "production ready."

Expectation: Writing elegant code with perfect structure and original logic. Reality: WHEEEZE *frantically searching through 2000 lines of code at 3am* "I FORGOR SEMICOLON" And then there's that one missing semicolon that keeps you awake for 4 days straight while your non-programmer friends think you're being dramatic. No, Chad, this isn't like when you "missed her" - this is psychological warfare between me and a punctuation mark that Satan himself invented.

The eternal struggle between C++ developers and management in one perfect image. The developer is begging for static analysis tools while management responds with the programming equivalent of "thoughts and prayers." Because why fix bugs before they happen when you can just blame the dev team later? Static analysis would catch those memory leaks faster than management catches excuses for why the project is six months behind schedule. But sure, let's keep pretending that manually reviewing 500,000 lines of code is a viable strategy.

The programmer dating market has spoken, and it's absolutely savage. Everyone's fighting over that one Rust developer with memory-safe relationships while C++ devs are left wondering if they've been friend-zoned or just garbage collected. Notice how Java gets a question mark – even the dating pool has NullPointerExceptions when it comes to Java devs. Meanwhile, Python coders are getting attention despite spending hours arguing about whitespace, and JavaScript users somehow remain popular despite their toxic relationship with semicolons. The SQL enjoyer is probably great at relationships – they know how to properly JOIN tables at dinner parties. But that Rust developer? Memory safe, thread safe, AND relationship safe. The ultimate triple threat.

When your therapist tries to reassure you about imaginary programming languages, but then Brazilian C shows up with incluir <espadrao.h> , vazio principal() , and escrevef("Olá Mundo!"); . It's like regular C had a wild weekend in Rio and came back speaking Portuguese. The function names are literally just translated versions of standard C - "incluir" instead of "include", "vazio" instead of "void", "principal" instead of "main". The real horror isn't that Brazilian C exists—it's that part of you immediately understood it. Seven years of debugging regular C and now you're fluent in its international variants too. Great.
