The eternal computer science debate that makes absolutely no sense to normal humans: endianness. On the left, the logical person crying because "end" should refer to what comes last (little-endian should be MSB first). On the right, Danny Cohen smugly enjoying the chaos he created by naming it backwards - where "big end" refers to the most significant byte coming first. For the uninitiated: endianness determines how multi-byte values are stored in memory. It's like arguing whether to read a number from left-to-right or right-to-left, except we've been fighting about it since the 1980s and nobody will ever surrender.

The bell curve of syntax pedantry! On the left, you've got the blissfully ignorant coder who just forgets semicolons entirely. On the right, the equally rare punctuation zealot who's horrified by using commas instead of periods. And in the middle? The screaming majority of us who've spent hours debugging only to find it was a missing semicolon all along. Nothing says "experienced developer" quite like the primal rage of yelling "USE AN IDE!!!" at your screen after wasting an afternoon on a syntax error that proper tooling would've caught instantly. The semicolon wars continue to claim victims daily.

The divine intervention of tech support! You've spent 6 hours debugging that obscure driver issue, tried 37 Stack Overflow solutions, and reset your BIOS twice. Then suddenly—a random Reddit post from 2018 with exactly your error message appears like a holy vision. The post has precisely one comment: "nvm fixed it" with no explanation whatsoever. Yet somehow, the mere existence of this ancient thread gives you the determination to try that one weird registry hack you dismissed earlier. And it works! The Reddit archaeology expedition saves the day again.
