The Dev Did Not Hesitate

The modern dev industry in one horrifying portrait. This poor soul has spent 15 years installing packages and memorizing framework APIs without understanding a single line of vanilla code underneath. Can't write a for loop without reaching for lodash, but boy can they recite the entire React documentation while sleeping. I've interviewed these people. They'll talk your ear off about their "deep expertise" in 47 frameworks they've "mastered," but ask them to reverse a string without npm and suddenly they need to "research best practices." Their resume is just a word cloud of package names. The worst part? These people get hired. A lot. Because nobody wants to admit they can't tell the difference between someone who understands programming and someone who's just really good at following Medium tutorials.

The secret language of developers strikes again! That empty slot labeled "404" is the perfect representation of the infamous HTTP status code that means "Not Found." While normal people see an empty drink holder, programmers see a brilliant visual pun - the drink is literally "not found," just like when your browser can't find that page you're looking for. And of course, it's sandwiched between 403 (Forbidden) and 405 (Method Not Allowed), making it even more deliciously nerdy. Your mom never stood a chance at understanding why this is comedy gold.

JavaScript: where NaN is a number, empty arrays are equal to zero, but not really, and adding three booleans equals exactly 3... sometimes. It's like the language was designed by someone throwing darts at a board of random programming concepts while blindfolded. The real kicker? That smug face at the bottom belongs to Brendan Eich, who created this beautiful mess in just 10 days. And now we're all stuck with type coercion that makes "91"-"1" equal 90 because... reasons. No wonder debugging JavaScript feels like trying to solve a murder mystery where everyone, including the detective, is lying.
