The Speed vs. Simplicity Showdown

Ah yes, the anti-programming manifesto from someone who clearly had their code compile on the first try and couldn't handle the success. The author seems to believe computers should just magically do math without being told how. Next they'll expect their car to drive without a steering wheel because "wheels are circles, not driving devices." My favorite part is complaining about recursive methods with threads while typing this rant on a device powered by... wait for it... programming. That's like yelling at clouds for raining while standing under an umbrella. And that final while(true){ print(money); } snippet? If only it were that easy. I've been running that code for years and my bank account remains stubbornly unimpressed.

The harsh reality of starting your coding career right there. You write your first "Hello World" program, dream about Silicon Valley riches, and then realize the fastest way to make money from programming is to... sell the hardware you're programming on. That C++ code in the background isn't paying the bills, but Facebook Marketplace sure delivered! The irony of having stacks of cash while your IDE shows the most basic program possible is just *chef's kiss*. Turns out the real programming skill was listing electronics on Craigslist all along.

When your sneaky request for "one more day" causes the judge's sentencing algorithm to wrap around into negative territory! The -32.768 years is exactly what happens when a 16-bit signed integer overflows from its maximum value (32,767) to its minimum (-32,768). Instead of extending your sentence, you've basically hacked the judicial system with an unhandled edge case. Free to go and grab another McD's drink while the court IT department frantically debugs their legacy C code!

Someone said "C isn't hard" and then proceeded to demonstrate the exact opposite. That syntax is the programming equivalent of those Russian nesting dolls, except each doll inside is progressively more haunted than the last. Nothing says "beginner-friendly" like declaring an array of pointers to functions that return pointers to functions that return void. I've seen clearer instructions written in ancient Sumerian.

Ah, the classic programmer's solution to avoiding C and Rust—just go for pizza instead! After 15 years in the industry, I've learned that sometimes the best programming language is whatever's on the menu. Memory management giving you nightmares? Pointer errors making you question your career choices? Just order a Margherita and pretend those problems don't exist. The pizza-driven development methodology: where the only garbage collection you need to worry about is clearing your plate.

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.
