Banks Love COBOL

cobol-memes, legacy-code-memes, banking-memes, mainframe-memes, lord-of-the-rings-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The entire financial world runs on COBOL code written when dinosaurs roamed the earth. New programmers see this ancient language and want it burned at the stake, but banks cling to it like Gollum with the precious ring. Why rewrite millions of lines of working code when you can just pay COBOL developers obscene amounts of money instead? The banking industry's motto: "If it's broken enough to work for 60 years, don't fix it."

Pointers Are Good Too

The ultimate C programming trauma in six panels! When Patrick says "I don't like C," Squidward immediately diagnoses this as pointer-phobia, while SpongeBob desperately tries to defend Patrick's dignity. But then Patrick commits the cardinal sin—declaring a pointer variable with int *y = &x; —proving he actually understands pointers perfectly fine! It's like someone saying they're afraid of heights while casually tightrope walking between skyscrapers. The memory management PTSD is real, folks—we've all pretended to hate pointers while secretly using them like pros.
