Goddamn Vibe Coders
Oh. My. GOD! The absolute TRAGEDY of modern development in one perfect image! 😭 On the left, we have the GLORIOUS CHAD DEVELOPERS of yesteryear who, when faced with limitations, didn't whine about it - they just casually BUILT THEIR OWN OPERATING SYSTEM WITH THEIR OWN LANGUAGE like it was just another Tuesday afternoon hobby! And then there's us... the pathetic creatures of today, sobbing into our Stack Overflow searches, unable to remember the syntax for a basic if statement in Python (which is literally just "if condition:"). The sheer AUDACITY of comparing these two specimens! I'm having an existential crisis just looking at this!

The Great Developer Downgrade

The Great Developer Downgrade
Oh. My. GOD. The absolute TRAGEDY of modern programming in one image! 😭 Once upon a time, coding legends casually CARVED ENTIRE OPERATING SYSTEMS from raw binary—FOR FUN! Like majestic stallions galloping up a beautifully carved staircase. Meanwhile, today's developers (myself included) are basically that sad little toy horse, drowning in frameworks, Stack Overflow, Git issues, and caffeine, screaming "NOTHING WORKS" into the void while frantically copying code snippets. We've evolved from digital sculptors to digital BEGGARS. The audacity of us calling ourselves "programmers" while we're just gluing libraries together and praying!

Programmers Then And Now

Programmers Then And Now
Remember when programmers were basically coding demigods who could bend computers to their will? Now we're just sad creatures Googling "how to center div" for the 500th time and begging AI to fix our mistakes. The golden age programmer wrote code without StackOverflow, crafted entire games in Assembly (you know, that language that makes you want to cry), manually fixed memory leaks with pointers, and literally hand-coded the software that put humans on the freaking moon. Meanwhile, modern programmers are trapped in Vim wondering why :q doesn't work, fixing one bug only to create three more like some kind of hydra nightmare, and asking ChatGPT to solve problems we should probably understand ourselves. The decline is real, folks. But hey, at least we have dark mode now.

The Four Stages Of CS Student Evolution

The Four Stages Of CS Student Evolution
The four horsemen of CS education evolution: Year 1: You're printing "Hello World" with the enthusiasm of someone who just discovered fire. "Mom! Look! The computer said words I told it to say!" Year 2: Reality hits with data structures, DBMS, and OS concepts. Your face says "I've made a terrible mistake" but your tuition says "keep going." Year 3: The existential crisis kicks in. "I wanna go home" isn't just a statement—it's your new mantra, whispered between debugging sessions at 3 AM. Year 4: Complete surrender. Your only escape plan is now a YouTube channel where you'll explain to others why they should suffer too. "Don't forget to smash that like button while I smash what's left of my sanity!"

The Four Stages Of JavaScript Enlightenment

The Four Stages Of JavaScript Enlightenment
The four stages of becoming a JavaScript developer: 1. Innocent excitement: "Ooh, a book about JavaScript!" 2. First encounter with callback hell: *uncontrollable sobbing* 3. Acceptance phase: *builds fortress of solitude with multiple monitors* 4. Final form: Bearded wisdom, thousand-yard stare, and a strong drink to numb the pain of yet another framework release. They grow up so fast when you feed them promises that never resolve.

Just Found Out What Assembly Is...

Just Found Out What Assembly Is...
Remember when coding meant wrestling with assembly and reading manuals thicker than your college textbook? Those 70s programmers didn't have Stack Overflow to cry on—they had biceps from carrying documentation and nightmares about memory allocation. Fast forward to modern times where we're practically coddled by interpreters that say "Aww, you forgot a semicolon? No worries, I'll pretend I didn't see that." The hardest thing we do now is decide which framework to abandon next month. Every time I have to touch low-level code, I silently thank the buff psychopaths who came before us. They weren't programmers—they were digital blacksmiths forging code with their bare hands.
