Yesterday I Discovered The Mutable Keyword

Confessing your forbidden love for Python in the programming church? Straight to developer hell! The irony is Python's supposed to be the "pure" language with its clean syntax, yet we're all secretly seduced by its indentation-based structure and one-liners that make other languages look like verbose garbage. The real sin is how productive you become while other devs are still fighting with semicolons and curly braces. Forgiveness not guaranteed from the C++ priesthood.

A classic language war in its natural habitat! Someone makes the bold claim that C/C++ and assembly are unbeatable performance kings, only to be countered by the chaotic suggestion to "google Fortran Tutorial." The third commenter's "Holy hell" perfectly captures that moment when you realize Fortran—that ancient scientific computing language from the 1950s—still outperforms modern languages in numerical computations. It's like watching someone bring a calculator to a smartphone fight and somehow win. The real punchline? All three comments have exactly 1 point each. Nobody's winning this war.

That bittersweet moment when your senior dev raises a champagne toast to retirement while you're sitting in the flames of legacy code hell. Nothing says "congratulations" quite like inheriting 20,000+ search results across thousands of files with zero documentation. The classic knowledge transfer plan: "It's all in the codebase somewhere, good luck!" Just imagine the commit messages from 1992: "temporary fix, will refactor later" and "don't touch this part, it works but I don't know why."

When someone claims they're "good in C," but their idea of writing code is literally arranging the letter 'c' to spell "Hello World." That's like saying you're fluent in Spanish because you can order a burrito at Chipotle. The painful irony is that actual C "Hello World" is just a few lines that any first-year student could Google in 5 seconds: #include <stdio.h> int main() { printf("Hello World"); return 0; } Yet here we are, watching someone flex their ASCII art skills instead of basic syntax knowledge. Classic interview self-destruction.

The only thing scarier than AI taking over the world? Finding out Python isn't just C in a trench coat. C purists have spent years comforting themselves with the myth that Python is just a wrapper around C functions, like a child riding on their parent's shoulders wearing a long coat. "See, it's just C underneath!" they whisper to themselves while clutching their pointers. But the truth that Python has evolved into its own full-fledged language is apparently more terrifying than any artificial intelligence apocalypse. Nothing strikes fear into the heart of a memory-management enthusiast quite like a language where indentation matters and garbage collection just... happens.

Ah, the classic "I'll mix five languages in seven lines and call it a day" approach! This monstrosity has C++ syntax with iostream and std::cout , but wrapped in Python-style def () function declaration, no parameter names, and curly braces like it's Java or C#. Then there's that mathematical abomination calculating "e" with nested exponents that would make a calculator have an existential crisis. And the cherry on top? Outputting variable x that doesn't even exist while calculating e that's never used. Whoever wrote this clearly graduated from the "chaotic evil" school of programming.
