Turtles All The Way Down
The cosmic joke of software development revealed! Astronauts floating in space discover that beneath all those fancy programming languages (JavaScript, Python, PHP, Java, C++, Ruby, Swift) lies the humble C language powering everything. It's like finding out your sophisticated smartphone runs on hamster wheels. No matter how high-level and abstracted your code gets, you're still standing on the shoulders of that 50-year-old C giant, frantically manipulating memory addresses and forgetting to free your pointers. The "Always has been" punchline is perfect - seasoned developers nodding knowingly while junior devs have their existential crisis in real-time. Your React app? C underneath. Your ML model? C underneath. Your entire career? Just elaborately disguised C code.

Assembly Programmers: Where Time Stands Still
The scene from Interstellar perfectly captures time dilation in programming languages. Writing in Assembly is like manually arranging electrons while floating in the vacuum of space—painstaking, precise, and you age seven years for every hour spent doing it. Meanwhile, Python swoops in like a cosmic shortcut, compressing what would be hours of tedious work into mere minutes. That look on his face says it all: the existential dread of realizing you've spent years of your life writing MOV instructions when you could've just imported a library and called it a day. The cosmic horror isn't the black hole—it's realizing how many keystrokes you've wasted.
