VLC Statues Are Everywhere

vlc-memes, traffic-cones-memes, open-source-memes, media-player-memes, dad-jokes-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

When someone says "VLC deserves a statue," they're being sincere about honoring the free, open-source media player. But the reply takes it literally by joking that traffic cones (which look exactly like the iconic VLC logo) are actually "VLC statues" found on roads everywhere.

This is peak dad-joke territory in the tech world. The VLC player has earned genuine respect for refusing millions in ad revenue to stay true to its open-source, ad-free principles – while simultaneously being represented by the most mundane object in existence: an orange traffic cone.

My Trust In File Saving Commands

The chart perfectly illustrates the eternal struggle of every coder who's lost hours of work to the void. That towering orange bar represents our unwavering faith in the magical ":w" command in Vim to write our changes to disk. Meanwhile, that pathetic purple stub shows how much we actually trust "ctrl+s" to save our work in other editors. Nothing quite matches the existential dread of hitting ctrl+s and wondering if it really saved or if your changes will vanish into the digital abyss. At least with Vim's :w command, you get that reassuring "written" confirmation that your precious 3-hour debugging session won't disappear when your cat inevitably knocks over your coffee onto your power strip.
