Content You: - fairly average software dev - claims not to be competitive, but secretly dreams of landing on the leaderboard at least once - uses a full IDE; wastes a minute right out the gate waiting for it to start - still parsing the problem statement while others are already submitting answers - actually uses a debugger when things aren't working Your competition: "Hackerman" - InfoSec major - sits at his PC on a near- lethal dose of Adderall waiting for the timer to hit 00:00 - has automated scripts for pulling the input and submitting solutions, and his own library of helper functions for every imaginable problem class - knows your IP at all times "-mhtwalters" - research scientist at Intel - does puzzles for fun that are harder than any job you will ever have - so utterly bored with the problems that he creates increasingly ridiculous self-imposed restrictions to keep things interesting - solved last year exclusively in APL on a System360 emulator, and still finished 9th on the global leaderboard - personal homepage is HTML 2.0 compliant "wihbr" - software dev from undisclosed Eastern- European country, making 200kyr for a company you've never heard of - is in literally every coding competition - Twitch stream is just a Vim terminal and the sounds of a mechanical keyboard - types faster than you can read or think "Tharg" - Linux kernel hacker - specialization in compiler design - is golfing in some esoteric language nobody has ever heard of - can mentally transpile any code he sees to assembly - measures his solutions' performance in actual clock cycles - overworked Chinese university student, double majoring in theoretical physics and chemical engineering - has been locked into various educational institutions since he was 3 years old - only time outside of school is for piano lessons - can literally only see the relevant parts of the problem statement - you will not understand his solutions without a PhD in discrete mathematics "Samir Nagheenanajar" - outsourced IT support technician - does puzzles because he has nothing better to do during his shift - forced to solve in Excel because he isn't allowed to install other software - can reveal the face of God using only BA - rumored to possess the combined knowledge and power of all Indian educational YouTubers

Content CODE COMMENTS BE LIKE STOP THIS IS A STOP SIGN

Terry, the mythical unicorn of development. Spends two decades crafting his own OS (because apparently existing ones weren't painful enough), yet somehow manages to write commit messages that don't read like encrypted ransom notes. Meanwhile, the rest of us are over here with our "fixed stuff" and "updated things" commits, wondering if we should just give up and become goat farmers.

Content Make the comment section look like your GitHub Commit history. made with mematic ProarammerHumor.io

It's the classic RPG character selection screen, but for the coding world's various tribes! Top-left: The "Corporate Legacy" build. Internet Explorer, Windows Server 2003, and .NET. Your special ability is maintaining ancient systems nobody else wants to touch while drinking coffee from a mug that says "I fixed it." Top-right: The "Digital Freedom Fighter" class. Linux, Tor, Monero, and a mandatory Richard Stallman shrine. You refuse to use proprietary software and have a 4-hour speech prepared on why everyone should compile their own kernel. Bottom-left: The "Silicon Valley Hipster" build. HTML5, JavaScript, and a MacBook purchased with your startup's seed money. Special abilities include drinking $8 artisanal coffee while explaining why your framework is better than the one released last week. Bottom-right: The "Hardcore Basement Dweller" spec. Arch Linux, energy drinks, and 4chan's technology board as your homepage. You started coding at 12 and now make 300 commits daily, mostly to projects nobody understands but everyone secretly fears. Choose wisely. Your IDE preferences and caffeine dependency depend on it.
