Access modifiers Memes

When your object-oriented programming skills finally come in handy at a protest. Someone clearly paid attention in CS class instead of sleeping through encapsulation lectures. The sign brilliantly uses Java's access modifiers to make a statement - keeping gender as a private string variable that can't be modified by outside classes, rather than a public constant boolean that everyone gets to weigh in on. The compiler of this joke deserves a promotion.

Java: "We use private keywords for encapsulation and data hiding." Developers: "Hold my reflection API." The left side shows the ultimate Java encapsulation heist - using reflection to forcibly access a private field. It's like telling someone their house is secure while showing them exactly how to pick the lock. Sure, Java tries to protect your data with private keywords, but reflection just walks in through the bathroom window with a smug grin. After 15 years of coding, I've seen this "elegant solution" in production more times than I care to admit. Security through obscurity at its finest!
