The Three Hardest Things In Computer Science (Actually Five)

The joke is hiding in plain sight—just like that duplicate cache invalidation entry. Notice how the list claims to have "three" hardest things but actually lists five items? And cache invalidation appears twice? That's the meta-joke about cache invalidation being so hard you can't even remember you already listed it. Meanwhile, "Threlti-Muading" is just "Thread Loading" with a naming problem, proving the point about naming things being difficult. And the cherry on top? The list itself has an off-by-one error by promising three items but delivering five. It's recursively proving its own point!

Playtesters Quickly Discovered There Is No Explicit Cap To Display Names

The first rule of game development: always sanitize your inputs . Some poor dev just learned that VARCHAR(255) isn't enough when players can create display names like "ConundrumSupercalifragilisticexpusVortexWhimsicalWhisperXenodochialXyloglyphyYesteryearYggdrasilZanyZephyrZigguratZillionaireZenithZealotZiplineZigzaggingZephyrine" while flying spaceships and making terrible tuna puns. The database admin is probably having a nervous breakdown right now while the QA team is laughing hysterically. And somewhere, a junior dev is frantically writing a regex at 2 AM that they'll eventually copy-paste from Stack Overflow anyway.

The Stockholm Syndrome Of Operating Systems

The quintessential developer dilemma: complaining about Windows but rejecting Linux when it's offered. It's like dating someone awful but refusing to swipe right on anyone else because "what if they're worse ?" That moment when you'd rather stare out the actual window contemplating your technological suffering than embrace the penguin of freedom. The cat's expression in the third panel is every developer who's been forced to use corporate-mandated Windows while secretly knowing they could solve everything with one distro change. Stockholm syndrome: Operating System Edition.
