GASP! The TRAGEDY of the 60s programmer! Back when coding meant manually punching holes into cards like some kind of deranged confetti artist! Those poor souls had to PHYSICALLY REPRESENT EACH BIT with their own precious fingers! 💅
Then compilers swooped in like the technological homewreckers they are, translating high-level languages into machine code and STEALING THE LIVELIHOOD of all those punch card artisans! The AUDACITY! The BETRAYAL!
Meanwhile, modern devs are crying about having to write a semicolon. HONEY, your ancestors were MANUALLY PUNCHING ASSEMBLY CODE into cards and praying they didn't sneeze mid-sequence!
