OOP Is Like Communism

OOP Is Like Communism
DARLING, the AUDACITY of comparing Object-Oriented Programming to communism is just *chef's kiss* MAGNIFICENT! 💅 OOP promises us this UTOPIAN DREAMLAND of beautiful encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism—a coding PARADISE where everything is neatly organized and maintainable! The FANTASY! The ROMANCE! But then reality SLAPS US IN THE FACE with inheritance hierarchies deeper than my existential crisis, design patterns more convoluted than my love life, and codebases so bloated they need their own ZIP code! And poor Jesse's face at the end? That's LITERALLY every functional programmer when an OOP evangelist starts preaching about their "elegant solutions." HONEY, THE DRAMA! 💀

Why'd You Choose Programming?

Why'd You Choose Programming?
The brutal honesty of career choices summed up in one confession. Started coding because it seemed cool, stayed because I'm too deep in the tech debt to escape now. That moment when you realize your GitHub commits are basically digital breadcrumbs leading to your slow descent into Stack Overflow dependency. Seven years and four frameworks later, still googling basic syntax and pretending it's normal. The only difference between junior and senior devs? Seniors know which errors to ignore.

Clever Tricks That Make Compiler Engineers Cry

Clever Tricks That Make Compiler Engineers Cry
The classic variable swap without a third variable—the coding equivalent of showing off a party trick that makes actual engineers cringe. Sure, it looks clever until some compiler expert (embodied by angry Walter White) shows up to explain how your "optimization" is actually destroying CPU pipelining, creating memory dependencies, and making Dennis Ritchie roll in his grave. Meanwhile, modern compilers have spent decades optimizing temporary variable allocation that your one-liner just obliterated. It's like bringing a butter knife to a gunfight and calling yourself a ninja. The branch predictor is weeping, the cache is thrashing, and your register allocator just filed for emotional distress.

I Am The Documentation

I Am The Documentation
The evolution of a developer in its natural habitat. Junior devs naively believe documentation exists somewhere in a mythical folder. Meanwhile, senior devs have transcended the need for written instructions because they've internalized every painful bug, every midnight hotfix, and every legacy codebase nightmare. After years of trauma, they've become one with the code. They don't read documentation—they remember the mistakes that led to its creation. The knowledge isn't written down because it's etched into their souls alongside their will to live.

Whose Side Are You On: Algorithm Purists vs. Pragmatic Coders

Whose Side Are You On: Algorithm Purists vs. Pragmatic Coders
Two types of C programmers in the wild. On the left, the algorithm purist who builds a nested loop monstrosity with variables like "i" and "j" because apparently naming variables is too mainstream. On the right, the pragmatist who just hardcodes the damn star pattern and goes home early. The left guy is still debugging his loop indices while the right guy is already enjoying his weekend. Sure, it's not "elegant" or "scalable," but it works and nobody's going to maintain this code anyway. Let's be honest, we've all been both of these people at different points in our careers.
