The Evolutionary Stages Of Copy-Paste Sophistication

Someone said to make function names self-explanatory, and buddy took it literally . The irony is palpable as they create a function called "selfExplanatory" with increasingly chaotic casing and naming conventions, then ask "Am I doing it right?" Meanwhile, the only response is just an opening parenthesis - the universal symbol for "I've given up trying to explain this to you." Nothing says "I understand coding best practices" like completely missing the point while technically following instructions.

Oh sweet heavens, the AUDACITY of C language pointer syntax! First panel: array[3] - absolutely logical, accessing the 4th element. Second panel: *(array + 3) - STILL FINE because arrays are basically just fancy pointers wearing a trench coat. But then... THEN... 3[array] ?! THE UNHOLY ABOMINATION THAT ACTUALLY WORKS?! Because in C's twisted reality, a[b] is literally just syntactic sugar for *(a+b) , and addition is commutative so *(3+array) is valid. The character's face in the last panel is my soul leaving my body the first time I discovered this cursed knowledge.

When someone asks "what's a rectangle?", normal people just see a simple shape. Mathematicians bust out the formal definition with diagonals, breadth, and length measurements like they're preparing for a calculus final. And then there's us software engineers... two dots. That's it. Two points in a coordinate system and we've got ourselves a rectangle. Why waste time with fancy explanations when we can just define it with the bare minimum required to render something on screen? Seven years of education just to represent objects as efficiently as possible. This is what optimization looks like in the wild, folks.
