So September 13 is the 256th day of the year. Why 256? Because that's 2^8, the maximum number of distinct values you can represent with 8 bits (a byte). It's the perfect day for celebrating programmers—we get exactly one day of recognition before integer overflow kicks in. At least they didn't schedule it on day 0, when we'd all be arguing whether arrays start at 0 or 1 instead of celebrating.

The classic programmer's dilemma! When your university teacher announces they'll teach Python for OpenCV because "most students don't know it," but you're standing there with 8 years of experience facing two equally painful paths: either pretend you're learning everything from scratch (boring castle on the left) or flex your skills by showing off some absolutely demonic code that'll make your professor question their career choices (haunted lightning castle on the right). The fork in the road represents that moment of decision every experienced dev faces in intro classes - do I play it safe or do I unleash chaos? Spoiler alert: we always choose chaos.
