The eternal debate rages on! While "normies" insist HTML isn't a programming language, some absolute madlad created PLHTML - a cursed abomination that implements a Fibonacci sequence generator entirely in HTML attributes . This is the programming equivalent of saying "watch me" right before doing something horrifically unnecessary just to prove a point. The creator even added custom tags like <var> , <data> , and <output> with attributes like data-while to simulate actual programming constructs. The right side shows it actually works! This is what happens when spite becomes a programming motivation. Somewhere, a computer science professor is sobbing uncontrollably.

It's the RPG character selection screen nobody asked for but everyone secretly relates to! Choose your programmer archetype: Top left: The Corporate Legacy Warrior - Internet Explorer, Windows Server 2003, and .NET. You've got job security until those legacy systems finally die (which might be never). Top right: The Privacy Paladin - C programming, GNU/Linux, ThinkPads, and Tor. You probably have a Richard Stallman shrine and whisper "proprietary software is theft" in your sleep. Bottom left: The Hipster Bard - HTML5, JS, Apple, Electron, and of course, the mandatory Starbucks coffee. Your apps are bloated but your Instagram is fire. Bottom right: The Hardcore Wizard - Arch Linux, Monster Energy, mechanical keyboards, and 300 commits per day. You've been coding since 12 and think sleep is optional. The real question isn't which class you are, but which one you'll admit to being in public.

When your non-tech friends ask what you do for a living, and you have to explain that HTML isn't actually a programming language. Sure, it's displayed with all the other languages in the museum of code, but it's really just that weird beetle-shaped car in the collection. It structures things nicely, but it ain't driving anywhere on its own. The eternal struggle of front-end developers – defending why we need JavaScript when clients ask "but can't you just do it in HTML?"
