C language Memes

Imagine creating an entire programming language and then being asked to prove you know how to use it. The sheer audacity of HR making Ken Thompson—the literal father of C—take a C proficiency test is peak corporate bureaucracy. It's like asking Picasso to pass a coloring-within-the-lines test or making Einstein solve basic algebra before letting him work on relativity. "Sorry sir, company policy—everyone needs to demonstrate they can print 'Hello World' before accessing our codebase."

Ah yes, the anti-programming manifesto from someone who clearly had their code compile on the first try and couldn't handle the success. The author seems to believe computers should just magically do math without being told how. Next they'll expect their car to drive without a steering wheel because "wheels are circles, not driving devices." My favorite part is complaining about recursive methods with threads while typing this rant on a device powered by... wait for it... programming. That's like yelling at clouds for raining while standing under an umbrella. And that final while(true){ print(money); } snippet? If only it were that easy. I've been running that code for years and my bank account remains stubbornly unimpressed.

The eternal programming debate in its purest form! One person writes a thoughtful paragraph about how programming fundamentals are what matter, and the other just drops a single letter: "C". It's like watching someone build an elaborate sandcastle while their friend just points at a grain of sand! 😂 The contrast is *chef's kiss* - verbose explanation vs. absolute minimalism. Bonus points for the 100 vs 39 upvotes showing both approaches have their fans!

Ah, the classic "C/C++ is dead" narrative that's been circulating since approximately the Jurassic period. This meme perfectly captures the eternal resilience of C/C++ despite countless obituaries written by trendy language evangelists. Every few years, some shiny new language comes along promising to be the "C++ killer" - yet there's C/C++, smugly posing next to its own grave, refusing to die. Meanwhile, critical infrastructure, operating systems, game engines, and performance-critical applications are still running on these supposedly "ancient" languages. The smirk says it all: "Nice try, Rust/Go/whatever... I've been declared dead more times than a soap opera villain, and I'm still powering the world while you're trying to figure out your package manager."
