I Just Think They're Neat

I Just Think They're Neat
Oh. My. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of project managers questioning my PRECIOUS collection of 1000+ unused libraries! 💅 Listen, sweetheart, I don't come to YOUR desk and question why you have 47 Gantt charts for a project that was supposed to be done LAST YEAR. These libraries are my emotional support dependencies! Some developers collect stamps, I collect npm packages that I might use someday in that hypothetical perfect project that exists only in my dreams. And YES, our build time is 4 hours and our node_modules folder is larger than the known universe, but LOOK AT ALL THESE PRETTY PACKAGES! They're just sitting there... being neat! Is that a crime now?!

Center Div.Js: The 500MB Solution To A 5KB Problem

Center Div.Js: The 500MB Solution To A 5KB Problem
The truth bomb that launched a thousand uncomfortable laughs at a dev conference. Nothing says "modern web development" like creating 47MB of JavaScript dependencies to avoid writing display: flex; justify-content: center; . Meanwhile, the audience is divided between those nodding in agreement and those who just published their "Revolutionary CSS-in-JS Solution" on GitHub yesterday. The irony of someone presenting this while probably using a JS framework to power their slides is just *chef's kiss*.

Trying To Go Back To Making A Webpage With Just Raw HTML/CSS/JS

Trying To Go Back To Making A Webpage With Just Raw HTML/CSS/JS
Look at this poor dev crawling desperately toward their framework lifelines. The modern web developer's equivalent of withdrawal symptoms. "Just one more component library, I swear I can quit Angular anytime!" Remember when we built websites with just HTML, CSS, and vanilla JS? No dependency hell, no 500MB node_modules folder, no "npm audit fix" nightmares. Those were simpler times. Now we've created generations of devs who break into cold sweats at the thought of writing a querySelector instead of using their precious framework's state management. The irony is we've come full circle - the "revolutionary" solutions all eventually try to mimic the simplicity we abandoned in the first place. Yet here we are, crawling back to our framework overlords because god forbid we handle DOM updates manually.

Modern Software Development

Modern Software Development
Oh. My. GOD. The absolute TRAGEDY of modern software development in one horrifying image! 😱 Someone is literally using a series of adapters stacked on top of each other just to plug something in! It's the digital equivalent of building a Jenga tower of frameworks, libraries, and dependencies just to print "Hello World"! The sheer AUDACITY of needing 17 layers of abstraction to accomplish what should be a SIMPLE TASK. And don't even get me started on how this is EXACTLY what happens when you try to make React talk to that legacy Java backend through six different middleware services. The horror! The DRAMA! The unnecessarily complex architecture diagrams!

The LinkedIn Tech Stack Pokédex Challenge

The LinkedIn Tech Stack Pokédex Challenge
The ultimate tech resume flex: listing every framework, library, and tool you've ever glanced at for 0.5 seconds. That massive word salad of technologies—from Python to TensorFlow to "purrr"—is peak developer peacocking. The punchline is genius though. Asking recruiters to identify which ones are Pokémon is the perfect trap since several of these actually sound like Pokémon names (looking at you, "sparklyR" and "vulpix"—and yes, Vulpix is actually a fire-type Pokémon). It's the perfect litmus test for technical recruiters who claim to understand what you do but can't tell a data visualization library from something that shoots thunderbolts.

Adult Lego: The Software Engineering Truth

Adult Lego: The Software Engineering Truth
Standing on the shoulders of giants... while pretending you're levitating. The entire software industry is just us importing someone else's npm package, adding three lines of code, and then strutting around like we've invented electricity. Meanwhile, the real heroes who solved P=NP are buried in some GitHub repo with 2 stars. The best part? We all know it, yet tomorrow we'll npm install another solution and feel like technological wizards for implementing a toggle button.

The Great Developer Downgrade

The Great Developer Downgrade
Oh. My. GOD. The absolute TRAGEDY of modern programming in one image! 😭 Once upon a time, coding legends casually CARVED ENTIRE OPERATING SYSTEMS from raw binary—FOR FUN! Like majestic stallions galloping up a beautifully carved staircase. Meanwhile, today's developers (myself included) are basically that sad little toy horse, drowning in frameworks, Stack Overflow, Git issues, and caffeine, screaming "NOTHING WORKS" into the void while frantically copying code snippets. We've evolved from digital sculptors to digital BEGGARS. The audacity of us calling ourselves "programmers" while we're just gluing libraries together and praying!

Large Lateral Meowhole

Large Lateral Meowhole
Ah, the ultimate JavaScript framework showdown, but make it feline! From left to right, we've got Deno (orange cat with asterisk), Webpack (black cat with bundle symbol), Astro (gray cat with blue star), and Svelte (black cat with Svelte logo). These cats perfectly capture the backend of web development—showing you exactly what happens when frameworks turn around and present their assets . Webpack is busy bundling everything into one giant hairball, while Svelte stays slim and compiled. Meanwhile, Astro's just island architecting in its own universe, and Deno's over there promising it won't access your file system without permission. Four butts, four frameworks, infinite dependency conflicts.

HTML Is So Hard

HTML Is So Hard
The progression from "HTML is basic makeup" to "CSS adds some color" is fine, but then suddenly HTTP is portrayed as rocket science? Give me a break. The real punchline is creating an entire JavaScript framework because apparently making a GET request is too complicated. This is why we have 47 versions of React knockoffs and your website takes 15 seconds to load a button. Frontend development in 2024: where we solve problems we created ourselves with solutions that create more problems.

End Of An Era

End Of An Era
A lonely C++ programmer stands in the corner of a party, nursing a drink while contemplating memory management strategies. Meanwhile, the "vibe coders" and "latest JavaScript framework coders" are having the time of their lives, blissfully unaware that pointers even exist. It's like watching someone who knows how engines work watching TikTokers who think cars run on magic and good vibes. The C++ dev silently judges while manually freeing memory that nobody else even knows they're allocating.

From CSS Hell To JavaScript Purgatory

From CSS Hell To JavaScript Purgatory
Developer: "Goodbye HTML and CSS! I will never suffer again!" *Summons JavaScript monster that promptly beats him with a bat* *JavaScript monster evolves into even more massive React beast* Frontend devs thinking they've escaped the horrors of CSS only to encounter the eldritch terrors of state management, component lifecycle, and prop drilling. The circle of suffering just gets bigger with each framework. It's not escaping pain—it's just upgrading to premium pain with better documentation!

Please Stop The Framework Carousel

Please Stop The Framework Carousel
The eternal battle between junior devs who've just discovered the latest shiny framework and senior devs who've migrated codebases 17 times in their career. That clenched fist contains the restraint of someone who's spent countless weekends converting perfectly functional apps to whatever Google/Meta abandoned six months later. The SrDev isn't angry, just... tired. They're mentally calculating how many sprints will be wasted rewriting what already works while product features get pushed to "next quarter." That face says "I still have PTSD from our Angular 1 to 2 migration."
