The Beanie-Based Tech Hierarchy

The secret tech career hierarchy nobody tells you about in coding bootcamp: it's all about the beanie height-to-salary ratio. Want that six-figure software engineering job? Better start folding that beanie up! Meanwhile, the rest of us unemployed devs with our slouchy beanies are just one npm install away from dealing drugs in the parking lot. The real full-stack development is stacking your beanie just right during the Zoom interview.

Benefits Of Working In IT (Missing In Action)

Benefits Of Working In IT (Missing In Action)

The joke here is that the pie chart shows the "Benefits of working in IT in 2025" with a legend listing Salary, Wellness, Stable mental health, and Confidence for your future... but none of the colors in the legend actually appear in the chart. Classic bait-and-switch that hits too close to home. Seven years in the industry and I've seen enough "wellness programs" that consist of a single yoga session and free pizza to know this isn't far from reality. The chart is basically saying "here are all the benefits you were promised" while showing completely different data—just like how your job description never matches what you actually do. Pro tip: The real benefits of IT are unlimited coffee and the ability to blame everything on "network issues."

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.
