Discrete math Memes

Coding bootcamp: "Learn these 8 languages and you'll be a 10x developer!" Meanwhile, discrete math sits in the corner like a vengeful demon ready to destroy your soul. The duality is real - happy to stack frameworks like Legos, but mention linear algebra and suddenly everyone needs to "check on that deployment real quick." After 15 years in the industry, I've seen countless devs who can wrangle 12 JavaScript frameworks but freeze when asked to implement a simple graph algorithm. The secret nobody tells you: the math always catches up eventually.

OH MY GOD, the EXISTENTIAL CRISIS every CS student faces when they realize their degree is basically just fancy math with extra steps! 😱 You sign up thinking you'll be hacking mainframes and creating the next Facebook, but SURPRISE! It's just calculus and discrete mathematics wearing a trench coat! The cosmic horror of discovering that the cool programming career you dreamed of is actually built on a foundation of mathematical theorems that have been stalking you since high school. And honey, that astronaut with the gun? That's just the senior developers who've accepted this traumatic truth years ago. They're not even sorry about it!
