The Header Should Include Interface Only

The naval mine (C) with all its dangerous spikes has spawned a smaller, arguably more aggressive offspring (C++). Perfect representation of how C++ emerged from C with extra features that can blow up your code in exciting new ways! The parent is already dangerous enough with manual memory management and pointer arithmetic, but the child adds inheritance, templates, and operator overloading to create even more spectacular runtime explosions. Just like these underwater mines, both languages will sink your project if you touch the wrong part.

When someone claims they "use C++ in JavaScript," you expect some horrifying abomination of code. But then they show a basic for loop with C++ style increment (c++) and suddenly everyone's laughing because it's the most innocent dad joke in programming history. It's like telling people you know kung fu and then just waving your arms around making "whoosh" sounds. The audacity of this pun deserves both a standing ovation and immediate revocation of coding privileges.

Grammar lessons from the concurrency trenches. While you're busy learning Latin plurals for your CS vocabulary, the mutex is quietly plotting your demise with race conditions and deadlocks. The joke here is brutal: mutex (mutual exclusion) is supposed to be your savior in multithreaded programming, preventing race conditions by locking shared resources. But its plural? "Deadlock." Because when you start using multiple mutexes without proper ordering, you're basically writing a suicide note for your application. Thread A locks mutex 1 and waits for mutex 2, while Thread B locks mutex 2 and waits for mutex 1. Congrats, your program is now frozen in time like a developer staring at their production logs at 3 AM. The irony is chef's kiss—the very thing meant to save you becomes your downfall when you scale up. It's like hiring security guards who end up blocking each other in doorways.

The eternal struggle between programming language evangelists continues! The meme perfectly captures the cult-like fervor of Rust developers who can't stop preaching about memory safety. Rust zealots will literally ambush you in a school bus to explain how their language prevents segmentation faults and memory leaks while C++ developers are just asking "Are y'all with the cult?" The punchline "This is it" at the end is the perfect reaction of seasoned developers who've seen language wars come and go but are now resigned to their fate of being cornered by yet another enthusiastic Rustacean.

Ah, the mark of the chosen one! Someone slapped "C++" on this poor guy's forehead like a programmer's scarlet letter. The language wars continue unabated as C++ devotees silently infiltrate positions of power. Next thing you know, they'll be mandating pointer arithmetic lessons in kindergarten and replacing the national anthem with a song about memory management. The revolution will be compiled, not interpreted.

Someone tried to roast FFmpeg for having a messy codebase, and FFmpeg's official account hit back with the coldest comeback in open source history: "FFmpeg is written in C and assembly." Translation: "Yeah, our code looks rough because we're optimizing at the metal level while you're over there writing React components." Then they dropped the mic with "Talk is cheap, send patches." That's the open source equivalent of "put up or shut up." You want to complain? Cool, here's commit access. Show us how you'd do it better. The beauty here is that FFmpeg is literally the backbone of half the internet's video infrastructure. Netflix, YouTube, VLC—they all rely on this "messy" codebase. When you're processing millions of video frames per second, nobody cares if your variable names are pretty. Performance trumps aesthetics every single time.
