Stop Selling We Already Bought It

11 days ago 73.5K views 0 shares

The classic corporate bait and switch. Management (excited German Shepherd) buys some shiny new dev tool after a slick demo, while the developer (unimpressed cat) sits through what was promised as a "tutorial" but is actually just 45 minutes of marketing fluff about features they'll never implement. The cat's dead-inside expression perfectly captures that moment when you realize you've wasted an hour of your life watching someone click through pre-built examples while explaining absolutely nothing of technical value.

Yep Again Same Vids

Ah yes, the annual January flood of "Learn to Code in 24 Hours" videos that somehow take 3 hours to explain a for loop. The internet's equivalent of gym membership sales after New Year's. Just wait until February when they all mysteriously pivot to crypto tutorials.

Programmers Trying To Learn Be Like

The eternal cycle of programming education: nodding along to tutorials while understanding absolutely nothing. That tiny kitten is all of us pretending to grasp React hooks or recursion during the fifth YouTube tutorial of the night. "Yeah, yeah, I totally get why we're using a binary search tree here" *frantically Googles 'what is a binary search tree' in another tab*. The cognitive dissonance is strong with this one.

How To Learn Coding (Arctic Edition)

Ah yes, the classic "how to learn coding in a single night" question. The answer? Just relocate to a place where "night" lasts six months. Problem solved with geographic loopholes instead of actual time management skills. The best part is the follow-up advice: "just Google it." Because apparently after traveling thousands of miles to the Arctic Circle, setting up your development environment in sub-zero temperatures, and dealing with polar bears, the groundbreaking strategy is... the same thing you could've done from your couch.

The Bell Curve Of Programming Knowledge

The bell curve of C programming knowledge is brutal truth wrapped in a meme. On the far left, you've got the blissfully ignorant newbie who thinks "printf is magic!" On the far right, the battle-hardened veteran who's seen enough pointer arithmetic to know that simplicity is king. But that middle peak? That's where the insufferable "I watched Fireship's 100-second video so I'm basically Dennis Ritchie now" crowd lives. They've memorized just enough syntax to be dangerous but not enough to realize they're one segfault away from disaster. The duality of programming education in 2024: either spend years mastering the craft or watch a YouTube video and call it a day.

My Incompetence Drives Me Crazy

Nothing sends you into a padded-room-worthy mental breakdown quite like following a tutorial that's missing critical steps. You're there, coffee in hand, thinking "I'll knock this out in 20 minutes" and two hours later you're googling "how to tell if I'm hallucinating buttons" while questioning your entire career choice. The worst part? When you finally figure it out, the solution is always some obscure step the author thought was "too obvious to mention." Yeah, super obvious to everyone except the person literally following your tutorial step-by-step, genius.

The Three Wise Men Of Self-Taught Programming

Oh, you're "self-taught"? *raises eyebrow skeptically* The internet trinity of knowledge silently judges your claim. Let's be honest—your "independent learning journey" was actually: 1. Copying Stack Overflow answers from Quora 2. Watching 47 YouTube tutorials at 2x speed 3. Frantically Googling error messages at 3AM Nobody becomes a developer in a vacuum. Your real teachers were these three digital uncles giving you that knowing look. The only truly original code you wrote was probably "Hello World"—and even then, you probably checked the syntax twice.

Copy-pasting code from tutorials is the developer equivalent of following a recipe that claims to be "easy" but somehow your soufflé still collapses. The teddy bear's shocked expression perfectly captures that moment of betrayal when you realize the tutorial author conveniently omitted mentioning their 17 environment variables, custom libraries, and the blood sacrifice to the coding gods they performed beforehand. It's that special kind of disappointment that can only be cured by beer and Stack Overflow.

Udemy Tutorials Supremacy

The AUDACITY of reality! Top panel: You, blissfully cuddling with adorable Udemy tutorials that whisper sweet nothings like "become a full-stack developer in 12 hours!" Bottom panel: Your soul being VIOLENTLY MAULED by the bear of actual workplace expectations where suddenly you need to understand legacy code written by seven different developers who all HATED each other! That cute little tutorial didn't prepare you for the bloodbath that is production debugging, did it sweetie? 💅

Just Read The Documentation (They Said)

Ah yes, technical documentation at its finest - a LEGO diagram with arrows pointing to... somewhere? The irony of senior devs saying "just read the docs" when the docs themselves are a cryptic puzzle that requires three PhDs and a decoder ring to understand. It's like being told the treasure map is super clear, but it's actually written in invisible ink and you need to stand on your head at midnight during a full moon to see it. Documentation authors seem to think we're all psychic and can magically fill in the 47 missing steps between "import library" and "congratulations on your functioning application!"

The eternal developer pilgrimage, perfectly captured! This is what happens when you just want to fix that one tiny bug, but the internet has other plans. That comically long printout represents the soul-crushing journey every programmer takes when searching for answers. You start with such hope on Stack Overflow, only to be sent through a labyrinth of outdated links, abandoned GitHub repos, and eventually to some ancient YouTube tutorial where a teenager with a terrible microphone mumbles the solution while Linkin Park plays in the background. The best part? After this entire odyssey, you'll probably just end up using a completely different approach anyway. It's like the programming equivalent of those "you had the power inside you all along" movies, except with more crying and energy drinks.
