Stop Using Floats

Functional programming purists have gone too far! While we're all using CONST to make variables immutable, Haskell folks are over here with their monads, currying, and type signatures that look like hieroglyphics from an alien civilization. The beauty of this rant is that it perfectly captures the existential crisis of every developer who's peeked into Haskell's mathematical purity only to back away slowly. "Hello I would like [1,2...] apples please" - because apparently ordering groceries requires a PhD in category theory now. Those code snippets with question marks are the programming equivalent of opening a physics textbook to a random page and questioning your career choices. The mathematicians have indeed played us for absolute fools!

Ah, the classic bitwise vs modulo showdown. Left guy uses (num%2) == 0 to check if a number is even - the textbook approach they teach you in CS101. Right guy with the sunglasses? He's using (num&1) == 0 - the bitwise AND operation that's marginally faster because it works directly with the bits. Same result, but the bitwise operation skips the division calculation. It's the programming equivalent of bringing a switchblade to a butter knife fight. Technically more efficient, practically irrelevant for most applications, but absolutely essential for establishing your dominance in code reviews.

The classic double-meaning ambush! The interviewer asked about using LSD (Least Significant Digit) for problem-solving, but our poor candidate immediately thought of the other LSD. That moment of realization when your brain frantically recalibrates from "they want me to take hallucinogens?!" to "oh right, numerical systems!" is pure cognitive whiplash. Numerical LSD is actually crucial in rounding algorithms and floating-point precision - something you'd definitely want to know for technical interviews! The monkey's expression perfectly captures that split-second mental journey from shock to embarrassment that happens when your CS knowledge and street knowledge have an unexpected collision.

The brutal moment when you realize your CS professor wasn't kidding about Big O notation. Four years of studying sorting algorithms only to discover that in the real world, the difference between O(n) and O(n²) is whether your AWS bill makes the CFO cry or not. Time complexity isn't just theoretical—it's financial complexity with extra steps!

Ah, the eternal Python vs "real programming" debate! The stick figure is lamenting that Python doesn't make you "cool like a real programmer" while his friends completely ignore him—one's jamming on a guitar, another's coding import numpy as np , and the third is actually building something useful. This perfectly skewers the gatekeeping mindset that equates programming difficulty with value. Meanwhile, the Python user is quietly being productive with scientific computing libraries while the purist is stuck complaining about language superiority. The irony is delicious—the person claiming others aren't "real programmers" is the only one not creating anything!

When electrical engineers cross over to programming, they bring their calculus baggage with them! Our poor engineer is desperately searching for integrals in C code, only to find the primitive data type "int" circled in red—mistaking it for the mathematical concept. It's the classic "fish out of water" scenario where someone's expertise in one domain hilariously fails to translate to another. The printf statement asking "where are the integrals?" is just the cherry on top of this disciplinary culture shock. Somewhere, a CS professor is crying into their coffee.
