Me Coding My First Project
Ah, the classic "checking if a number is even" function written by someone who clearly slept through the modulo operator lesson. Instead of the simple return number % 2 == 0 , this poor soul is writing out every possible case until they presumably die of old age around number 2,147,483,647. This is the programming equivalent of digging a tunnel with a spoon when there's a perfectly good excavator sitting right there. The desperate tweet above the code says it all - there IS an easier way, buddy. There always is.

The Bogosort Dimension

The Bogosort Dimension
Ah, the mythical parallel universe where bogosort—the algorithm equivalent of throwing a deck of cards in the air and hoping they land in order—actually works reliably. In our dimension, this disaster of an O(n×n!) algorithm would take longer than the heat death of the universe to sort your Netflix queue. But somewhere out there, developers are using it in production and getting promotions while we're stuck optimizing quicksort like suckers.

Efficient Algorithm? More Like Efficient Disaster!
SWEET MOTHER OF COMPUTATIONAL DISASTERS! This poor soul is out here creating algorithms with O(n^n) complexity and has the AUDACITY to blame it on technology limitations?! 💀 For the blissfully unaware: O(n^n) is basically the algorithmic equivalent of trying to empty the ocean with a teaspoon. It's SO HORRIFICALLY INEFFICIENT that computer scientists don't even bother including it in most complexity charts because they're too busy having nervous breakdowns just thinking about it. No honey, you're not "limited by the technology of your time" - you're limited by your catastrophic life choices in algorithm design! Even a quantum computer from the year 3000 would burst into flames trying to run that monstrosity!
