Evolution of programmer enlightenment: starts with Python (basic brain), progresses through Java (slightly lit brain), then C++ (glowing brain), followed by Scratch (cosmic brain), and finally... Minecraft command blocks (transcendent alien being).
Nothing says "I've reached programming nirvana" like crafting complex algorithms with blocks meant for 10-year-olds. The supreme irony of the programming world: spend years mastering memory management in C++ only to realize the true galaxy-brain move is coding with pictures of cats and literal blocks.
If you've ever built a working CPU in Minecraft, you're not a programmer anymore—you're basically a deity. The rest of us mortals will continue pretending our Python scripts are impressive.
