Beginner vs pro Memes

The duality of coding in its purest form. Left side: a beginner writing a nested loop monstrosity with 12 lines to print a simple pattern. Right side: the professional with the thousand-yard stare of someone who's seen too many code reviews, just hardcoding five print statements and calling it a day. The beginner thinks they're being clever with their algorithm. The professional knows the true path to enlightenment: whatever ships fastest with the least maintenance. Why waste time writing elegant loops when you can just... not? It's the coding equivalent of using a jackhammer to hang a picture frame versus just using a nail and your shoe.
