Line numbers Memes

The eternal struggle between one-indexers and zero-indexers continues! The guy's face in the second panel perfectly captures the existential horror every programmer feels when their IDE betrays the sacred law of zero-indexing. It's like telling a mathematician that π equals exactly 3 – pure blasphemy! Most programming languages (C, Java, Python, JavaScript) start arrays at index 0, making "line 1" sound like fingernails on a chalkboard to seasoned developers. Meanwhile, some text editors and IDEs rebelliously start counting at line 1, creating this cognitive dissonance that makes developers twitch uncontrollably. The real pros mentally subtract 1 from every line number they see. It's not a bug, it's a feature of our brains at this point.
