Code Now, Cry Later

programming-memes, coding-memes, documentation-memes, developer-memes, notetaking-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The duality of a programmer's existence in one perfect meme. Taking notes? That's for people who think they'll actually read them again. Meanwhile, the true coding warriors just slam their keyboards, write incomprehensible code at 2AM, and trust their future self to figure it out with nothing but cryptic variable names and zero comments. The confidence is breathtaking. The hubris is magnificent. The inevitable Stack Overflow search three weeks later when you have no idea what your own code does? Priceless.

Content PROGRAMMING IS SECOND NATURE TO US DEVELOPERS SO IT'S EASY TO FORGET THAT THE AVERAGE PERSON PROBABLY ONLY KNOWS THE SYNTAX FOR PYTHON AND JAVASCRIPT. AND SQL, OF COURSE. OF COURSE.

The Build Tool Hierarchy

The Build Tool Hierarchy

The build tool hierarchy according to C++ developers! BSD Make gets a mild "meh" reaction. GNU Make earns a fancy tuxedo upgrade and approving smile. But NMAKE? That's Microsoft's Windows build tool that makes Pooh show his teeth in pure rage. It's the compiler equivalent of stepping on a LEGO while debugging a memory leak at 3AM. The perfect visual representation of why developers would rather rewrite their entire codebase than deal with Visual Studio's native build system.
