Fork Children, Kill Processes

unix-memes, linux-memes, fork-memes, processes-memes, programming-terminology-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The classic Unix terminology strikes again! In operating systems like Linux, fork() creates a child process and kill terminates a process. So when programmers casually discuss "killing child processes" or "forking children," it sounds completely normal to us but absolutely horrifying to everyone else. It's the perfect example of why programmers should never discuss work at dinner parties unless they want to end up on some kind of watchlist.

Too Much Bloat

Too Much Bloat

Ah, the eternal battle of text editors vs. modern web frameworks. Our dapper gentleman here is rejecting the bloated monstrosity that is modern JavaScript frameworks (looking at you, Vue.js) in favor of the humble 'ed' text editor - possibly the most minimalist text editor in existence. For the uninitiated, 'ed' is a line-oriented text editor from the 1970s that makes vim look like a luxury cruise ship. It's basically what you'd use if you wanted your coding experience to be as painful as possible, but hey, at least it won't eat 500MB of RAM just to change a string. The hardest of the hardcore Unix veterans still swear by it, right before they start ranting about kids these days with their fancy syntax highlighting and autocompletion.
