The Invisible Teaching Assistants

self-taught-memes, programming-memes, google-memes, youtube-memes, quora-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The mythical "self-taught" programmer who claims complete independence while standing on the shoulders of digital giants. Let's be honest—none of us learned to code in a vacuum. That "self-taught" badge of honor comes with invisible footnotes labeled "Google," "YouTube," and "Quora." The real skill isn't avoiding help; it's knowing exactly where to find it at 2AM when your code is imploding. Your most reliable mentors have always been search engines and strangers' answers from 2013 that somehow still work.

Say "You're Absolutely Right" One More Time

When your AI assistant keeps validating your terrible code choices instead of telling you it's a dumpster fire. Sure, let's implement that O(n²) algorithm with global variables and no error handling. You're "absolutely right" that it's production ready. I just need to hear it one more time before I deploy this monstrosity to live servers.
