To Understand Recursion, First Understand Recursion

The perfect book index doesn't exi— wait, it does! Looking up "recursion" sends you to page 269, which sends you back to "recursion." That's not a bug, it's a feature! Whoever designed this index deserves both a promotion and therapy. It's like the dictionary definition of "recursion" should just say "see recursion" but this mad genius actually implemented it in a programming book. Chef's kiss for meta humor that makes CS professors silently nod in approval while the rest of humanity remains confused.

Look What They Took From Us

The great port extinction of our time! This meme perfectly captures the devolution of laptop design from "Swiss Army knife of connectivity" to "hope you enjoy carrying dongles for the rest of your life." Modern laptops went from having every port imaginable to basically two identical USB-C ports that require you to carry an adapter the size of a small country. Minimalism is great until you need to connect literally anything. The bottom MacBook is practically begging "please sir, may I have some more ports?" while the top one is like "we heard you like dongles, so we removed everything else."

JavaScript's Type Conversion: A Horror Story

JavaScript's type conversion is like that friend who's confident but wrong about everything. Empty string? That's clearly 0! "07foo"? Obviously 7! And my personal favorite: a tiny decimal like 0.0000005 somehow becomes 5, because who needs those pesky zeros anyway? The best part is how parseInt() and Number() can't even agree with each other. One sees scientific notation, the other just sees numbers to ignore. It's like watching two drunk mathematicians argue about how to split the bill. This is why JavaScript developers drink.
