I Believe In 90s-2000s Internet And Technology Supremacy

I Believe In 90s-2000s Internet And Technology Supremacy
Behold the digital archeology exhibit of peak internet culture! That silhouette is bowing to the holy relics of an era when Clippy was your most reliable therapist and your MySpace Top 8 determined your social worth.

Grandpa Python: The OG Coding Language
Turns out Python's been silently judging Java for being the "new kid" all along. While everyone's busy arguing about which language is better, Python's sitting there with its reading glasses on like "I remember when you were just a glint in Sun Microsystems' eye." Four years might not seem like much, but in programming years? That's basically a generation gap. No wonder Python looks at Java's enterprise features and just mutters "kids these days with their fancy garbage collection and verbose syntax."
