The Cycle Of Programmer Humor And Gatekeeping

programming-memes, gatekeeping-memes, stackoverflow-memes, reddit-memes, toxic-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The eternal cycle of programming humor in four panels:

1. Innocent brain thinks of a joke while browsing r/ProgrammerHumor

2. Posts contrived scenario about computers being annoying (because let's face it, that's 90% of our job)

3. Gets absolutely destroyed by gatekeeping veterans with comments like "HOW BAD ARE YOU, IS THIS YOUR FIRST DAY PROGRAMMING?!"

4. Vows to never post again

And thus another potential contributor to open source dies before they even make their first PR. Tale as old as Stack Overflow.

The Duality Of Operating Systems

The Duality Of Operating Systems

The holy war of operating systems continues unabated. First, we've got Winnie the Pooh showing his progression from "meh" about Windows to sophisticated gentleman for Linux, then suddenly turning feral for macOS. Then the second image delivers the punchline - the bell curve of intelligence showing that both the lowest and highest IQ developers prefer Mac for its "user-friendliness," while the average devs in the middle are divided between Windows zealots preaching "freedom and compatibility" and Linux users who don't even need to justify their superiority complex. After 15 years in this industry, I've realized we're all just chimps with keyboards arguing about which banana tastes better while our IDEs crash regardless of platform.
