Java Is To JavaScript As Car Is To Carpet

java-memes, javascript-memes, programming-languages-memes, naming-confusion-memes, developer-frustration-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The meme brutally murders the misconception that Java and JavaScript are related just because they share "Java" in their names. It's like assuming cars and carpets are related because they both start with "car." The naming similarity is purely coincidental—JavaScript was named during the peak of Java's popularity as a marketing gimmick. One's a compiled, statically-typed language that runs on a virtual machine; the other's an interpreted, dynamically-typed language that powers the web. Different ancestors, different purposes, different ecosystems. Next up: explaining why hamburgers contain no ham.

The Bell Curve Of Syntax Pedantry

The bell curve of syntax pedantry! On the left, you've got the blissfully ignorant coder who just forgets semicolons entirely. On the right, the equally rare punctuation zealot who's horrified by using commas instead of periods. And in the middle? The screaming majority of us who've spent hours debugging only to find it was a missing semicolon all along. Nothing says "experienced developer" quite like the primal rage of yelling "USE AN IDE!!!" at your screen after wasting an afternoon on a syntax error that proper tooling would've caught instantly. The semicolon wars continue to claim victims daily.
