Memory

Memory
React needs memory for its virtual DOM. Angular needs memory for bindings, subscriptions, and observables. Meanwhile jQuery just vibes with direct DOM manipulation, whistling past the graveyard of modern frontend architecture. The real joke here is that both modern frameworks are stressed about their memory footprint while jQuery is out here living its best life with zero abstractions and maximum selector chaos. Sure, your app might be unmaintainable spaghetti code, but at least you're not debugging memory leaks in a reactive state management system at 2 PM on a Friday.

A Brief History Of Web Development

A Brief History Of Web Development
PHP sitting there like the cockroach that survived the nuclear apocalypse while everyone keeps throwing funeral arrangements at it. For THREE DECADES people have been writing PHP's obituary, and yet here we are in 2025 celebrating its 30th birthday like it's some kind of immortal deity that feeds on developer hatred. ColdFusion? Dead. ASP.NET's glory days? Faded. NextJS being the "PHP killer"? PHP literally laughed and ate another slice of birthday cake. The cycle is HILARIOUS: new framework drops → "PHP is dead!" → PHP continues powering like 77% of the web → confused pikachu face → repeat. Meanwhile Ruby on Rails and Django got their little moment of fame in the timeline like supporting characters in PHP's never-ending sitcom. The real plot twist? That

Svelte Is Better

Svelte Is Better
You know what's wild? The frontend framework wars have gotten so tribal that people will confidently argue about which one is superior without ever touching the "inferior" one. It's like reviewing a restaurant you've never been to based on Yelp comments. React devs catching strays from Svelte enthusiasts who sleep peacefully knowing they've never had to deal with useEffect dependencies or the joy of explaining why you need three different state management libraries. Meanwhile, they're out here living their best life with reactive declarations and no virtual DOM overhead. The real kicker? Both frameworks will be replaced by something else in 2 years anyway. Sweet dreams, framework warriors.

The Immortal PHP: Still Not Dead In 2025

The Immortal PHP: Still Not Dead In 2025
For nearly three decades, developers have been declaring PHP's funeral while hyping the next hot framework. ColdFusion, ASP.net, Django, Rails, Flask, Angular, Next.js, Python—they've all taken turns as PHP's supposed executioner. Yet there it stands in 2025, like some immortal deity rising from the clouds, declaring "As you can see, I am not dead." PHP is basically the tech world's cockroach—it would survive a nuclear apocalypse while React is still trying to resolve its dependencies.

Is Brendan Eich In The Room

Is Brendan Eich In The Room
JavaScript devs watching Ruby on Rails folks tear each other apart over politics while sipping coffee through their npm dependency hell. First time? Ha! The JS community survived ES6 vs ES5, jQuery wars, framework fatigue, and approximately 8,742 state management libraries. Political drama? That's just Tuesday for us. We've been divided since someone first suggested semicolons were optional.

A Brief History Of Web Development

A Brief History Of Web Development
The eternal zombie apocalypse of PHP development in one perfect timeline! From 1995's "PHP is dead, use ColdFusion!" to 2002's ASP.NET hype train, through Ruby on Rails and Django eras, all the way to 2018's NextJS revolution... yet somehow PHP keeps shambling along despite three decades of obituaries. It's the cockroach of programming languages—surviving nuclear winters, framework fads, and endless "X is the PHP killer" declarations. By 2025, we'll all be attending its 30th birthday party while secretly writing The real joke? Half the internet still runs on it. Complicated love indeed.

Which Link Should I Click

Which Link Should I Click
Frontend development in a nutshell. Two contradicting articles with the exact opposite titles, both written with absolute conviction. One says "Web Components Are Not the Future" while the other declares "Web Components ARE the Future." This is why junior devs stare blankly at their screens when asked which framework to learn. The entire web ecosystem is just senior developers confidently disagreeing with each other in Medium articles.

When "I Love Coding" Means Something Completely Different

When "I Love Coding" Means Something Completely Different
The classic tech pickup line that actually worked! The first panel shows two people bonding over "loving coding," but the second panel reveals what they really mean - completely different tech stacks that would make any senior dev cry. Left side's running Webflow, Jira, Figma, GraphQL, Spark and some hipster frontend frameworks, while right side's rocking IntelliJ, Visual Studio, Docker, Slack, GitHub, Kubernetes and SQL. Their relationship is basically microservices vs. monolith architecture in human form. They'll figure out their incompatibility issues during the first pair programming session. Still a better love story than tabs vs. spaces though!

Npm Install Headache

Npm Install Headache
OH. MY. GOD. The absolute TRAUMA of modern frontend development captured in one image! 😱 On the left, we have the React ecosystem pointing a BAZILLION packages at us like we're being held hostage in dependency hell. React-router-dom, TypeScript, Axios, Tailwind, and twenty other packages just SCREAMING at you to install them before your project can even render "Hello World." It's like being at a buffet where you MUST eat everything or the chef gets offended! And then there's Angular on the right - just standing there... menacingly... with its all-in-one framework. One download and you're set, but at what cost to your SOUL?! This is why frontend developers have eye bags deeper than the node_modules folder. Our package.json files have more dependencies than I have emotional issues - and that's saying something! 💀

The Immortal Language That Refuses To Die

The Immortal Language That Refuses To Die
PHP is like that horror movie villain who just won't die no matter how many times you stab it. For three decades , tech bros have been writing PHP's obituary while frantically recommending whatever shiny framework just dropped that week. Meanwhile, PHP silently powers WordPress, Facebook, and roughly 80% of the internet while the "next big thing" frameworks come and go faster than JavaScript developers change their LinkedIn titles. The secret to PHP's immortality? It just works. No 12-hour Udemy course needed to display "Hello World." Pure technological cockroach energy.

The Duality Of Tech Advice

The Duality Of Tech Advice
The duality of tech content platforms in their natural habitat! On the left: "Stop Using React" with a modest 46 upvotes. On the right: "Just F***ing Use React" with a whopping 170 upvotes. Welcome to frontend development, where contradictory advice gets served up daily like it's a special at your local coffee shop. The algorithm knows what it's doing - feeding you completely opposite opinions so you can stay perpetually confused and keep coming back for more validation. The best part? Both articles probably make equally compelling arguments. Truly the Schrödinger's cat of web frameworks - React is simultaneously the best and worst thing ever created until you actually open the article.

The Machine Learning Affair

The Machine Learning Affair
The eternal machine learning love triangle! Your relationship with TensorFlow was going just fine until PyTorch walked by with those sleek dynamic computation graphs and intuitive Python interface. Now you're doing that awkward neck-twist of betrayal while TensorFlow catches you eyeing PyTorch's hot new features. The static graph never felt so... static. Let's be honest, we've all mentally cheated on our ML frameworks. It's not you, TensorFlow, it's your verbose API and that whole session management thing.
