The Illusion Of Free Choice

The classic "illusion of free choice" strikes again! Whether you choose math or computer science, both paths lead to the same destination: unemployment. It's like picking between two different programming languages only to realize they both have the same bugs. That CS degree you spent 4 years and $100k on? Congrats, you've unlocked the premium unemployment package with extra student debt! The cow just staring at these options is all of us before choosing a STEM major, blissfully unaware we're heading for the same slaughterhouse of broken dreams and Stack Overflow dependencies.

Math Made Me Poor

The formula at the bottom is the activation function for a neural network node. This poor soul clearly invested his life savings into an AI startup that promised to "revolutionize the industry" with their groundbreaking algorithm. Spoiler alert: it was just logistic regression with extra steps. Now he's smiling through the pain while his LinkedIn says "Open to work" and his GitHub is suddenly very active.

Unemployed Developer's GitHub

Nothing says "I'm between jobs" like turning your GitHub contribution grid into an actual shipping container. That massive green wall isn't projects—it's desperation. You know the drill: lose job, panic code, fill every square until your profile looks like a radioactive checkerboard. "Yes, potential employer, I did indeed commit 47 times on Christmas Day. No, I don't have friends, why do you ask?" The greener the grid, the louder the silent scream for employment. Ship those containers straight to Hired-ville!

Just Personal Branding Things

LinkedIn optimization at its finest. Rejecting the harsh reality of "broke and unemployed" in favor of the much more impressive "full time indie game developer" – which is technically the same thing but with a Steam page that has 3 wishlists (all from family members). The resume gap becomes a "focused development period" and ramen dinners transform into "startup culture."

They Don't Know I Have A Computer Science Degree

Four years of algorithm analysis, data structures, and discrete mathematics just to ask if you want ketchup with that. The job market's so saturated that your resume with "proficient in 12 programming languages" is now being used to wrap burgers. Still paying off student loans with minimum wage while the CS dropout who made a silly app about cats is now worth millions. The ultimate stack overflow.

Hope To Conquer The World

BEHOLD! The sacred ritual of the unemployed coder! There they stand, fist raised dramatically to the heavens, as if writing "Hello World" in yet another language will somehow transform them from jobless keyboard warrior to tech billionaire overnight! The AUDACITY! The DRAMA! The sheer DELUSION that learning your 27th programming language will finally be the one that makes recruiters slide into your DMs! Meanwhile, their LinkedIn profile weeps silently in the corner as they ignore actual marketable skills to master printing text to a console in Rust. Revolutionary stuff, truly.
