Baby's First Line Of Code

Baby's First Line Of Code
The circle of life in programming: your baby mumbles "Hello World" and suddenly transforms into a sunglasses-wearing code ninja while you shed tears of pride mixed with the grim realization that you've doomed another soul to a lifetime of debugging other people's spaghetti code and arguing about tabs vs spaces. It's beautiful and tragic, just like inheritance in JavaScript.

OH. MY. GOD. This poor father is inflicting Java 2 on INFANTS! The absolute HORROR! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ That baby on the left is clearly having an existential crisis while the toddler on the right is still blissfully unaware her childhood joy is being sacrificed at the altar of semicolons and boilerplate code! This is basically the programming equivalent of showing toddlers tax forms as bedtime stories! Next thing you know, these poor children will be dreaming of garbage collection and static typing before they can even spell their own names! Somebody call child services - this is a case of premature object orientation if I've ever seen one!

The brutal reality of zero-indexed arrays strikes again! Dad asks kid to count to ten, but the poor child starts with "1, 2..." instead of the programmer-approved "0, 1, 2...". Next frame: straight to the orphanage! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Every programmer knows arrays start at 0, not 1. It's the hill we die on (or apparently disown children over). The kid committed the cardinal sin of using 1-indexed counting in a 0-indexed household. No wonder dad's debugging tears are flowing - his offspring has a critical logic error!
