From Calculus To Coding: An Engineer's Confusion

From Calculus To Coding: An Engineer's Confusion
When electrical engineers cross over to programming, they bring their calculus baggage with them! Our poor engineer is desperately searching for integrals in C code, only to find the primitive data type "int" circled in red—mistaking it for the mathematical concept. It's the classic "fish out of water" scenario where someone's expertise in one domain hilariously fails to translate to another. The printf statement asking "where are the integrals?" is just the cherry on top of this disciplinary culture shock. Somewhere, a CS professor is crying into their coffee.

You Wouldn't Get It

You Wouldn't Get It
The circuit diagram joke that separates the real engineers from the rest of us. That's a buffer gate symbol between "You would" and "it" - literally creating "You wouldn't get it" because the buffer inverts the signal. The kind of joke that makes electrical engineers chuckle quietly while the rest of the dev team wonders why they're always so weird at lunch.

Serial vs Parallel Execution: A Killer Analogy

Serial vs Parallel Execution: A Killer Analogy
Whoever made this deserves a promotion and a psych evaluation. It's a brilliant visual pun using electrical circuit diagrams to illustrate computing concepts. Serial processing executes tasks one after another (like killers waiting their turn), while parallel processing handles multiple tasks simultaneously (killing your CPU efficiency but getting the job done faster). After 15 years of optimizing code, I still chuckle when junior devs discover threading and suddenly want to parallelize everything. Sure kid, enjoy your race conditions and deadlocks—I'll be over here with my popcorn.
