The Thrill Of Using Something For A Project It Should Never Be Used For

javascript-memes, operating-system-memes, wrong-tool-memes, developer-pride-memes, tech-absurdity-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

Just because you can write an operating system in JavaScript doesn't mean you should. But that won't stop some developers from trying and feeling like they've conquered Everest when they pull it off.

It's that special brand of developer masochism where we deliberately choose the wrong tool for the job just to prove it's possible. Like using Excel for database management or CSS to solve math problems.

The real punchline? Somewhere out there, a tech lead is adding "JavaScript OS experience" to their job requirements.

TS Should Have Been Rewritten In Rust

BEHOLD! The TypeScript mascot being STRANGLED by someone wearing a Rust bracelet! The AUDACITY! The DRAMA! This is basically the software equivalent of Game of Thrones, but with programming languages instead of noble houses! The Rust evangelists have gone TOO FAR this time - not content with telling everyone their memory-safe paradise is superior, they're now physically assaulting poor TypeScript! Next they'll be telling us that "undefined is not a function" wouldn't happen if we just rewrote everything in Rust! THE HORROR!
