The FAANG Salary Delusion

faang-memes, salary-memes, software-architecture-memes, junior-developers-memes, tech-industry-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The FAANG junior dev superiority complex is too real. While architects at normal companies are designing complex systems with years of experience, FAANG juniors are strutting around like they've solved P=NP because they earn six figures to maintain a button color in a microservice. Sure, they make 3x the salary, but they'll spend 5 years optimizing one function that decides if a notification dot should be red or slightly-less-red. The real flex isn't their technical prowess—it's their ability to convince recruiters that changing a CSS variable is worth $250k.

Both Subs Are For Jokes

The perfect self-burn doesn't exi— Oh wait, here it is! Reddit suggesting r/Rust is "Similar to r/ProgrammerHumor" while someone declares "Goodbye, C++. Rust is the future." is peak irony. The title "Both Subs Are For Jokes" is the chef's kiss - implying that Rust evangelism and programming humor are basically the same thing. Nothing says "I'm a serious developer" like religiously announcing the death of established languages. Memory safety or memory insanity? The line blurs when the Rust cult assembles.

The Grand Chess Master Of Stack Overflow

Ah yes, the infamous Stack Overflow superiority complex in its natural habitat. That smug little smirk says it all: "How dare you not know about the obscure JavaScript method I memorized during my morning coffee?" These are the same people who respond to your desperate plea for help with "Why would you even want to do that?" followed by a lecture about how your entire approach is wrong. Meanwhile, they're furiously typing "Actually..." while fantasizing about the dopamine hit from that sweet, sweet reputation point increase. The chess board is just *chef's kiss* - because in their minds, they're not just answering your question, they're playing 5D chess against your peasant-level intellect.
