HTML Programmer Wins Turing Prize

HTML Programmer Wins Turing Prize
STOP THE PRESSES! The computing world has been turned upside down as an HTML "programmer" somehow convinced the Turing Award committee they're an actual developer! The joke here is that HTML is a markup language, not a programming language - it's like giving a Nobel Prize in Physics to someone who put together IKEA furniture! The right side of the image shows the "genius" at work - literally just styling some text in a browser inspector. Next up: CSS artist wins Fields Medal for changing a background color to #2a2a2a. The computing community is in shambles!

Tariffs On JavaScript Imports

Tariffs On JavaScript Imports
Imagine a world where JavaScript developers have to pay a 20% tax every time they write import ! The economy would collapse faster than a poorly structured promise chain. The fake news chyron brilliantly mocks our dependency-addicted ecosystem where importing half the npm registry for a simple "Hello World" app is standard practice. Meanwhile, that chaos() function perfectly represents what would happen to the dev community if we actually had to pay for our import habits. I'm just waiting for the black market npm packages and the underground import smuggling rings to form. "Psst, kid... want some lodash functions? First one's free."

When Politics Tries To Git Involved

When Politics Tries To Git Involved
When politics meets version control and developers collectively facepalm! The fake news headline about an executive order forcing Git to revert from 'main' back to 'master' branches is peak tech-politics satire. For context: many Git repositories changed default branch names from 'master' to 'main' around 2020 to use more inclusive terminology. The joke imagines a world where government mandates coding conventions—like forcing everyone to use tabs instead of spaces or declaring semicolons mandatory. Next up: executive order making all boolean variables named 'isTrump' default to TRUE.
