What semiconductor engineers tell non-technical people vs what they actually do. The meme brilliantly satirizes how we mystify technology to outsiders! The elaborate fantasy narrative about "magical stones" (silicon chips) that need to be mined, enchanted, and controlled by "trained warlocks" (engineers) is just... making microprocessors that power your phone so you can watch cat videos. Next time someone asks what I do, I'm absolutely explaining how I "inscribe microscopic arcane sigils" instead of "design logic gates." Much more impressive!
