The Certificate Chase: Udemy's Digital Participation Trophy

udemy-memes, online-learning-memes, certificates-memes, developer-career-memes, learning-path-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

EXCUSE ME WHILE I EXPOSE THE DARKEST SECRET OF THE DEVELOPER UNIVERSE! 💀 The absolute TRAGEDY of spending 72 hours on a Udemy course only to discover the certificate is just a fancy JPEG that nobody in the industry gives a flying function about! Yet there we are, watching 37 hours of "How to Master React in Just 3 Days" at 1.5x speed, DESPERATELY clinging to the promise of that digital participation trophy. The validation-seeking MONSTERS we've become! And for what? So we can add another meaningless credential to our LinkedIn profile that recruiters scroll past faster than terms and conditions?! THE HORROR!

JavaScript's Quantum Logic: NaN Is A Number

JavaScript's type coercion strikes again! In JS, NaN (Not a Number) is technically categorized as a "number" type. Check it yourself with typeof NaN and watch your sanity slowly dissolve. It's like labeling a vegetarian restaurant "meat" because it's a food-related establishment. The wide-eyed shock on that cat's face perfectly represents every developer's reaction when discovering this cosmic joke buried in the language spec. The ECMAScript committee is probably still giggling about this one.
