Don't Get Burned

The sacred commandment of software development! Homer grabbing that "IF IT WORKS, DON'T TOUCH IT" advice slip with the desperation of someone who's broken production at least five times this sprint. The allure of "FREE PROGRAMMING ADVICE" quickly transforms into the cold, hard reality that refactoring working code is like performing heart surgery on a marathon runner mid-race. The true wisdom in our field isn't writing clever algorithms—it's knowing when to back away from the keyboard and let sleeping code lie.

How Computer Processors Work

The most technically accurate hardware diagram you'll ever see! The CPU (top) is that one beefy strongman doing all the heavy lifting one task at a time, plowing through sequential operations like a boss. Meanwhile, the GPU (bottom) is literally a swarm of tiny workers tackling problems in parallel—thousands of simple cores doing math simultaneously. This is why your gaming rig needs both: CPU for the big brain decisions and GPU for those sweet, sweet parallel matrix multiplications that make your graphics go brrrr. Next time someone asks why their Bitcoin mining rig needs more GPUs than CPUs, just show them this masterpiece of computational architecture!

JavaScript: Hell's Official Programming Language

The eternal JavaScript paradox: someone thinks they'll escape it in hell, not realizing it was forged there in the first place. That's like hoping to avoid sand at the beach. The irony is that while you're trying to center a div or debugging why undefined is not a function for the 500th time, Satan's probably running a legacy codebase with IE6 compatibility requirements and no documentation. JavaScript isn't punishment—it's training.
