Steal What Is Stolen

1 hour ago 20.5K views 0 shares

OMG the DRAMA in the design world vs. the absolute CHILL of programmer nation! 💅 Designers are over here having MELTDOWNS over similar ideas like it's the end of civilization, while programmers are just casually confessing grand theft code and nobody bats an eye! The second programmer is basically saying "Bold of you to assume I wrote this myself" because let's be REAL - we're all just copying from Stack Overflow and GitHub like it's a cosmic buffet of free code. The entire software industry is basically a giant game of digital hot potato where nobody knows who baked the original potato! Why reinvent the wheel when someone's already posted a perfectly good wheel on GitHub with an MIT license? *hair flip*

How You Look Like Based On Your Favourite Programming Language

Nothing captures programming language stereotypes quite like this. C++ devs portrayed as muscular metalworkers because you need industrial-strength biceps to manually manage memory. Rust is just SpongeBob having an existential crisis because of the borrow checker. JavaScript gets the e-girl treatment (of course it does), while C is literally a dinosaur—ancient, powerful, and refuses to die. Python's the friendly nerdy emoji because it's approachable but sometimes too simplistic. And Java... well, Java is just a hollow shell of a programmer slowly withering in a corporate cave. After 15 years in this industry, I can confirm these are scientifically accurate.

The Debt Accelerators

Ah, the magical world of "vibe coding" - where efficiency means creating catastrophic inefficiency at unprecedented speed! Two engineers casually generating enough technical debt to keep 50 engineers employed for the next decade. It's like watching arsonists brag about how quickly they can burn down a forest. "Look at us being so productive with our unreadable one-liners and zero documentation!" Meanwhile, future developers are already updating their résumés because they sense a disturbance in the codebase. Remember kids, technical debt is like regular debt except your bank is the grim reaper of software projects, and he always collects with interest.

The Universal Programming Language: Imposter Syndrome

No matter if you're a Python snake charmer, JavaScript DOM manipulator, or Rust memory safety evangelist—we're all secretly convinced we're frauds waiting to be exposed. That moment when your code works and you have absolutely no idea why ? Pure imposter syndrome fuel. The universal compiler error of the human brain: "Exception: Confidence not found in scope." The great equalizer of our industry isn't our tech stacks, it's that nagging voice whispering "they're going to find out you just Google everything" while we're presenting our elegant solutions.

Priorities In Programming

Spend 4 hours writing actual code? Nah. Spend half the morning arguing whether it should be userData , user_data , or just data ? Now we're talking! Nothing derails a productive coding session quite like a heated variable naming debate. The real programming happens in Slack threads and pull request comments where we pretend our naming conventions will somehow make the difference between project success and catastrophic failure. Meanwhile, the actual feature remains unimplemented and the deadline inches closer...

Stop Writing Crashy And Unmaintainable Code

Remember when our biggest problem was just regular developers writing garbage code? Now we've got "vibe coders" who respond to code reviews with "but it passes the vibe check." The tech industry's eternal cycle: someone begs for readable code, and some rebel decides that's their cue to nest 17 ternary operators inside a one-liner that "just works." And they'll die on that hill. Future archaeologists will uncover our GitHub repos and conclude our civilization collapsed because nobody could maintain the authentication service written entirely in regex.

I Thought My Teacher Is Just Being Hard On Me But It's Everywhere

The eternal workplace hierarchy in action! Junior devs naively approach seniors with what they think are simple questions, only to be met with the sacred incantation: "Just Google it." The senior programmer isn't being cruel—they're performing the ancient rite of passage that transforms helpless code babies into self-sufficient engineers. Remember the first time you mustered the courage to ask about that NullPointerException only to be redirected to the holy shrine of Stack Overflow? That's not gatekeeping—that's tough love wrapped in efficiency. The cycle continues, and someday that junior will be the one refusing to explain what a callback function is.

The Three Stages Of Code Ownership

OMG, the EVOLUTION of code ownership in three acts of pure DRAMA! 🎭 Act I: Designers having an absolute MELTDOWN over similar ideas. One's all smug while the other is literally CRYING TEARS OF RAGE! The audacity! Act II: Programmers being utterly UNBOTHERED. "I stole your code" meets "It's not my code" with the emotional investment of discussing yesterday's weather. The NONCHALANCE is killing me! Act III: GitHub users achieving PEAK ENLIGHTENMENT. Not only is stealing acknowledged, it's THANKED FOR! This is the digital equivalent of someone breaking into your house and you offering them tea for reorganizing your furniture! Welcome to open source, where your precious code belongs to EVERYONE and nobody simultaneously. What's mine is yours and what's yours is... forked.

The Great AI Escape

Running from the AI hype tribe like Jack Sparrow fleeing cannibals. Every standup these days: "We should integrate ChatGPT into our workflow!" Meanwhile, you're just trying to write clean code without buzzword-driven development consuming your sprint. The real treasure isn't some half-baked AI integration—it's maintainable code that won't summon future developers to hunt you down with pitchforks. Resistance isn't futile, it's sanity preservation.

Why You Don't Use ChatGPT?

The perfect setup-punchline combo that hits every developer right in the terminal. The top panel builds suspense with "Wanna hear the most annoying sound in the world?" (channeling Dumb and Dumber energy), only to deliver the devastating blow: "Why you don't use ChatGPT?" Complete with that perfect mix of judgment and horror on their faces. It's like that one coworker who won't shut up about their new tech stack while you're desperately trying to fix a production bug with good old reliable Stack Overflow and caffeine. The true horror isn't the question—it's the inevitable 20-minute lecture about prompt engineering that follows.

Too Quick To Judge

THE ABSOLUTE AUDACITY of someone parking in the handicap spot had me HULKING OUT with righteous fury... until I realized it was the vibe coder. 💀 For the uninitiated: the "vibe coder" is that mythical developer who writes such beautiful, elegant code that management lets them get away with LITERALLY ANYTHING. While the rest of us peasants follow coding standards and attend standups, they're parking wherever they want and submitting PRs at 4pm on Friday that somehow still get approved. The only true disability here is the rest of the team's inability to reach their level of coding sorcery!

It's The Law For Coders!

Listen, there are certain sacred traditions in coding that you just don't question. Using i and j as loop variables isn't a choice—it's practically written in the ancient scrolls of computer science. Passed down from the FORTRAN elders to every generation since. Try using pancake and waffle as your nested loop variables during a code review and watch your senior dev have an existential crisis. The programming gods will smite you with merge conflicts for the rest of eternity. Sure, we could use more descriptive variable names, but that would be... reasonable? And we can't have that. IT'S THE LAW!
