It's Like Being A Scuba Diver Without Certification

self-taught-memes, computer-science-memes, credentials-memes, bootcamp-memes, github-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The eternal CS degree debate, summarized perfectly by Ron Swanson's energy. Self-taught devs showing their GitHub profiles to gatekeepers like "I can do what I want." Meanwhile, bootcamp grads and Stack Overflow power users are nodding vigorously in the background. The industry's obsession with credentials is hilarious when half the senior devs can't remember their algorithm classes anyway. Your ability to Google error messages and understand the docs is the real certification here.

Some Things Never Change

The four horsemen of the apocalypse: World of Warcraft, beige computer tower, Mountain Dew, and pepperoni pizza. Back when your biggest worry was whether your guild would show up for the raid, not whether your Docker container would deploy correctly. The "work from home" setup before it was mandatory – except you weren't working, you were grinding for epic gear while your parents yelled about the phone line being tied up. Twenty years later and I'm still staring at screens, drinking caffeine, and eating delivery food... just with better resolution and more expensive hardware.

Everyone Told Java Not To Script

The ultimate dad joke of programming languages! Despite sharing zero DNA with Java, JavaScript was named purely for marketing hype in the 90s. It's like naming your hamster "Tiger" because it sounds cooler. The sinister grin in the image perfectly captures Netscape's devious marketing team knowing they were about to confuse generations of developers with this naming atrocity. The relationship between Java and JavaScript is basically the same as car and carpet – superficially similar words describing completely unrelated things. Yet here we are, 25+ years later, still explaining to non-programmers that no, we can't fix their Java problem with our JavaScript skills.
