Trying To Learn A Young Language, Using A Tutorial That's More Than A Year Old
That moment when your teapot is missing half its spout but you still try to pour tea with it anyway. Just like trying to follow that React tutorial from 2022 that casually omits the fact that half the API was deprecated last month. "Just import createClass—oh wait, that's gone. Um, just use componentWillMount—nope, that's gone too." The modern dev experience is basically pouring molten chocolate through a broken teapot and hoping your cup catches more than your countertop.

Oh No. C++ Is Dead
Microsoft Azure CTO declares C and C++ should be "deprecated" while his entire company runs on it. That's like a fish suggesting water is overrated. Next up: Windows will run on thoughts and prayers instead of kernel code. Meanwhile, Linux kernel devs, game engine programmers, and embedded systems engineers just collectively rolled their eyes so hard they saw their own brain stems.

Don't Get My Hopes Up
That brief moment of joy when you find the perfect function in some obscure documentation, only to have your soul crushed in three consecutive stages of despair. First, it's deprecated. Then you discover the docs you're reading are from 2015. And finally, the killing blow - the new API has completely removed that functionality because some architect decided "nobody needs that anymore." Time to cobble together a 47-line workaround that'll haunt your code reviews for years!

The Glass Is Deprecated
The classic optimist vs pessimist debate gets a programmer's twist! While normal people argue whether the glass is half full or half empty, developers on Stack Overflow just mark it as deprecated. Because in the coding world, why fix something when you can just abandon it entirely and force everyone to use the new CupV2 implementation? That water's probably running on legacy code anyway.

Flash is the tech equivalent of a zombie apocalypse survivor. Adobe officially killed it in 2020, but here it is in 2025, crawling back from the grave with that red logo turned blue like it's wearing a disguise. "I lived, b*tches!" The number of legacy systems still running Flash is the real horror story here. Some ancient enterprise app is probably keeping the entire financial sector hostage with its Flash dependency. The developers who can maintain it are either retired or charging consultant rates that would make a surgeon blush.
