Should I tell Her

The ultimate programmer dad joke that makes CS professors chuckle smugly. In Boolean logic, !false (the logical NOT of false) evaluates to true . So technically, the statement "!false is true" is... well, true. It's like the programming equivalent of saying "the opposite of a lie is the truth" but with syntax that makes non-programmers stare blankly while developers snort coffee through their noses.

The C++ programmer's 3 AM nightmare in full display. First the Rust evangelists tell you your beloved language is "unsafe" and you need to switch. Then they warn that all your code will be rewritten in Rust anyway, so prepare for unemployment. Finally, the dream escalates to its horrifying conclusion: "QUIT HAVING FUN" – because how dare you enjoy your pointer arithmetic and manual memory management? It's the programming equivalent of vegans telling meat-eaters they'll die of heart disease while you're just trying to enjoy your steak. Meanwhile, the C++ dev lies awake, haunted by the thought that maybe – just maybe – they should learn Rust before their GitHub contributions become vintage artifacts in the Computer History Museum.

Left side: Cute, friendly mascots representing normal programming languages. Right side: C++ gets a terrifying rat creature and whatever that nightmare fuel at the bottom is. Pretty much sums up the C++ experience. Other languages hold your hand. C++ hands you a grenade with the pin already pulled and says "good luck with memory management."

A parody of the iconic "For Dummies" book series that offers the ultimate solution to C++ frustration: complete abandonment of programming. The book promises to help you "forget OOP in 5 days," explore radical concepts like "weekends," and master advanced techniques such as "throwing away your computer." Perfect for the developer who's had enough pointer arithmetic to last several lifetimes. The true senior developer path isn't learning more languages—it's learning to touch grass.

Silent programmer staring intensely at the screen... Object-oriented languages promised us a beautiful world of reusable components, inheritance hierarchies, and elegant abstractions. Meanwhile, half of us are still trying to figure out why our getter methods are returning undefined and why everything breaks when we touch that one class that somehow connects to 47 other classes. The deafening silence in response to "SCREAM IF YOU LOVE OBJECT ORIENTED LANGUAGES" is the most honest code review I've ever seen.

Ah, the eternal civil war among programmers trying to get the size of something. Is it count() ? size() ? length ? sizeof() ? len() ? Every damn language and library decided to pick their own favorite, and now we're all just Spider-Men pointing at each other in confusion. Nothing says "I'm a seasoned developer" like muscle memory making you type the wrong size function in every language and then cursing under your breath when the IDE throws a red squiggly line. Consistency? In programming? That's a good joke!
