I Wish All CMake Fans A Very Pleasant Documentation Not Found

The ultimate C programming trauma in six panels! When Patrick says "I don't like C," Squidward immediately diagnoses this as pointer-phobia, while SpongeBob desperately tries to defend Patrick's dignity. But then Patrick commits the cardinal sin—declaring a pointer variable with int *y = &x; —proving he actually understands pointers perfectly fine! It's like someone saying they're afraid of heights while casually tightrope walking between skyscrapers. The memory management PTSD is real, folks—we've all pretended to hate pointers while secretly using them like pros.

The programming language rivalry reaches Marvel-level intensity! C++ developers reacting to Rust like Iron Man fighting Winter Soldier. Why? Because Rust is literally C++'s kryptonite—a memory-safe language designed to solve the exact problems that make C++ devs wake up in cold sweats at 3 AM. The double pun is *chef's kiss*: Rust the language is threatening C++'s dominance while actual rust (oxidized iron) threatens metal. No wonder they're throwing punches—their entire identity is under attack!

Just another day hunting for that one useful function in your codebase, only to unmask yet another AbstractSingletonProxyFactoryBean. Functional programmers smugly sipping tea somewhere while OOP developers keep wrestling with class hierarchies deeper than their project's technical debt. The real villain isn't the ghost - it's the architecture astronaut who decided every function needs to be wrapped in six layers of inheritance.

The modern tech stack visualized as the world's most precarious Jenga tower! At the very bottom, we have "ELECTRICITY" holding up literally everything - because let's face it, without it we're all just cavemen with MacBooks. The foundation includes Linus Torvalds, IBM, TSMC, and "K&R" (Kernighan and Ritchie, the C language creators) - you know, just the people who INVENTED MODERN COMPUTING, no big deal. Above them, C developers writing dynamic arrays because apparently we still haven't solved that problem after 50 years. Then we've got AWS, libcURL, and the Linux Foundation supporting everything while "unpaid open-source developers" hold up critical infrastructure. Meanwhile, Rust devs are off in their own rocket doing "their thing" while that one C++ project based on "undefined behavior" somehow keeps things running. The middle is pure chaos - web devs "sabotaging themselves" with an ever-growing tower of frameworks, a random Angry Bird labeled "whatever Microsoft is doing," and the cherry on top? A literal cloud labeled "lore accurate cloud server." And somehow this Frankenstein's monster powers everything from nuclear plants to "cookies for fish." The future is now, and it's terrifying!

The evolution of random number generation in three acts: Act 1: The naive approach. Just slap rand() % 100 and call it a day. It's like using a rusty spoon to perform surgery—technically it cuts, but yikes. Act 2: The "I read the C++ documentation" approach. Suddenly you're all fancy with std::mt19937 and uniform_int_distribution . You've upgraded from rusty spoon to actual medical equipment. Act 3: The final boss of randomness—international trade tariff tables. Because nothing says "unpredictable sequence" like geopolitical economic policies that change whenever someone important has a bad morning coffee. Next week: Using cryptocurrency market fluctuations as your entropy source.

The language wars are getting brutal! C# thinks adding a number to a string makes "a1" because it's doing string concatenation. Python's like "that's not valid syntax, you fool!" Meanwhile, C is just sitting there with its empty string result because it's adding the ASCII value of 'a' (97) to 1, getting 98 (which is 'b'), but then comparing it to an empty string, which is... definitely not what anyone wanted. This is why we can't have nice things in cross-language teams.
