What I Actually Want To Know

Computer scientists: "Let's discuss if this system can solve any computable problem!" Me, a practical developer: "Cool theory bro, but can it run Doom?" The "Can it run Doom?" test has become the unofficial benchmark for computing devices since the 90s. Forget your fancy theoretical computer science - if your toaster, calculator, or pregnancy test can run a demon-slaying game from 1993, that's when you've truly made it in tech.

Not Actually Structless

THE AUDACITY! Someone has the NERVE to mock DOOM's source code for having "no structs, no classes" only to get absolutely DESTROYED when they actually look inside and find—GASP—structs everywhere! 😱 The betrayal! The drama! It's like bragging about how your vegan friend eats no meat and then finding their freezer PACKED with bacon. The shocked cat face is literally all of us when our smug programming hot takes get obliterated by actual facts. Moral of the story: maybe CHECK the legendary code before trashing it, you absolute AMATEUR! 💅
