Thank You But Keep Your Mouth Shut

app-idea-memes, developer-nightmare-memes, non-technical-friends-memes, free-work-memes, startup-ideas-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

Every developer's internal reaction when a non-technical friend starts with "I've got an app idea." The threatening pose perfectly captures that mix of dread and irritation we feel when someone's about to pitch their "revolutionary" app that's basically "Uber but for hamsters" or "Facebook but people are nice." What they don't realize is they're the 500th person to think they're the first to come up with it, and no, we don't want to build it for free in exchange for "exposure" or a mythical 2% equity that'll totally make us rich someday.

How To Contribute To Open Source (Or Not)

The perfect representation of the open source community's split personality. On one side, you've got the enthusiastic advocates with their step-by-step guides and "beginner-friendly" labels. On the other, you've got the gatekeepers with their "DON'T contribute" warnings and... wait, is that a Soviet hammer and sickle? Nothing says "our code belongs to everyone" quite like communist symbolism thrown into the mix! The reality of open source: 50% welcoming community trying to build their GitHub résumé, 49% terrified maintainers who don't want you touching their perfect code, and 1% people who somehow turn programming into political theory. And they wonder why newbies get confused!
