Social media Memes

The Reddit algorithm has commitment issues worse than those wedding day deserters. You're scrolling through a thread about people abandoning their partners at the altar, and BAM—suddenly you're being pitched a GitHub issue processor for AI coding that costs less than a gumball. It's like the algorithm saw a thread about relationship abandonment and thought, "You know what this person needs? Some cheap API calls!" The digital equivalent of responding to someone's breakup story with "That's rough buddy, wanna see my new keyboard shortcuts?"

The vicious truth nobody asked for but everyone needed to hear! LinkedIn has evolved into this bizarre ecosystem where middle managers flaunt their "thought leadership" through humble-brags, corporate buzzword salad, and those insufferable "I'm proud to announce" posts. They're essentially selling a carefully curated professional persona to their network, complete with engagement-baiting stories about hiring the person who spilled coffee on them during the interview. The professional equivalent of thirst traps, just with more mentions of "synergy" and "leveraging core competencies."

Asking for coding help on Twitter/X is like being a house cat who wants to hunt mice while surrounded by apex predators. The newbie asks an innocent question, and suddenly senior devs swoop in with increasingly complex alternatives that have nothing to do with the original problem. Junior: "How do I center a div?" 10x Engineer: "Nobody uses CSS anymore. Try this React component with styled-components." Staff Engineer: "Just migrate to Svelte." CTO: "We're rewriting everything in Rust and WebAssembly."

Ah, the legendary GitHub pull request to rewrite Twitter in COBOL! For the uninitiated, COBOL is a programming language from the 1950s that's still running critical banking systems and government infrastructure, but about as suited for modern social media as a steam engine is for space travel. The satirical PR suggestion is pure comedy gold—imagine handling Twitter's real-time feeds and media processing with a language designed when computers took up entire rooms and "memory" meant physical punch cards! The 17 thumbs-up reactions show there are plenty of developers with a sense of humor (or masochistic tendencies). Meanwhile, somewhere a mainframe administrator is breaking into a cold sweat thinking about the 400-column code needed just to display a single tweet.
