The Plus Operator Identity Crisis

The hill programmers are willing to die on: proper syntax terminology. Nothing triggers a developer faster than hearing someone call parentheses "brackets" during code review. It's the same energy as correcting someone's grammar in the YouTube comments section. The mock TED Talk format just makes it *chef's kiss* - because we all know that person who treats basic programming knowledge like they're delivering revolutionary wisdom to the masses.

The bread hierarchy has spoken! Behold the programming language bakery where HTML is that one weird flat bread that didn't rise properly because surprise it's not even a programming language—it's a markup language! Meanwhile, Python, Java, C++, PHP, and C# are all fluffy, fully-risen loaves ready to handle actual computation logic. The bread metaphor is painfully accurate—HTML provides structure but can't "do" anything without JavaScript kneading some life into it. Next time someone claims HTML is their favorite programming language, just point to this carb-loaded taxonomy chart.

Ah, string manipulation in different languages - where consistency goes to die. Java's split() and C#'s Split() both follow sensible naming conventions, but then PHP comes along with explode() like that one developer who insists on naming variables after Pokémon characters. Ten years into my career and I still have to Google this function name every time I touch PHP code. It's like the language was designed by someone who thought "How can I make this as confusing as possible for people coming from literally any other language?"

Look at this beautiful encapsulation—a private joke that can only be accessed through a setter method. And just like real programmer humor, if you need it explained, "you wouldn't get it." The irony is perfect: a class called Meme with a private Joke that needs to be set explicitly, much like how the best programming jokes require insider knowledge that can't be easily transferred. The Joker knows what's up—some jokes just don't compile in everyone's mental runtime.

OH. MY. GOD. This resume is the coding equivalent of showing up to a date in a full cosplay outfit! 💀 This brave soul decided to format their ENTIRE RESUME as actual code, complete with classes, enums, and even XML comments! It's like they're SCREAMING "I'm a programmer" so loudly that HR people are running for the hills! The best part? They've listed future experience for 2024/2025! Time traveler or optimist? Either way, that's some next-level confidence that would make Kanye blush. Hiring managers are either going to worship this person or immediately file their resume in the special folder called "trash." There is NO in-between!

Ah, the modern approach to programming: just vibing and hoping the code works. The ostrich perfectly represents how we now debug – head not buried in sand, but held high with unearned confidence. Meanwhile, "C. Sharp" signs off on this masterpiece while "O RLY?" sits in the corner questioning our life choices. Remember when we used to actually understand our code? Yeah, me neither. Efficiency is now measured by how chill you look while your production server burns.
