Corporate programming Memes

When JavaScript makes you want to set your computer on fire, just remember Java devs are stuck writing 15 lines of code to print "Hello World" in some corporate basement. Suddenly your undefined is not null errors don't seem so bad. Nothing calms the JavaScript rage like realizing you could be writing enterprise Java instead. Perspective is a beautiful thing.

The eternal corporate time capsule in action. New hire suggests using String.strip() to remove whitespaces instead of manually copying strings to arrays and removing spaces. Sounds reasonable until the plot twist - it requires Java 11. Meanwhile, the company's still running Java 10. Wait, no... Java 8. Nothing says "enterprise software" like being stuck on a version released during Obama's presidency. The fancy new method might as well be quantum computing to this codebase. But hey, it works™ - and that's all management cares about.
