Too Afraid To Ask About Parity

The eternal struggle of non-technical folks trying to understand why we obsess over odd/even numbers! Little do they know it's the foundation of countless algorithms and optimizations. Is a number divisible by 2? That single bit determines if you can use bitwise operations, optimize memory alignment, implement efficient array partitioning, or even just create those perfectly balanced alternating-row table styles. It's not OCD—it's just good engineering practice! The difference between O(n/2) and O(n) might not matter to the average person, but it keeps us up at night.

The Final Evolution Of Code Sharing

The evolution of code sharing has reached its final form! First, we have GitHub - the standard way professionals share code. Then Google Drive - when you're desperate and don't know version control exists. Next level: taking a PICTURE of your code - the debugging equivalent of sending "pls fix" to your senior dev at 4:59pm on Friday. But the galaxy brain move? Reading your code aloud and publishing it as an audiobook on Amazon. Imagine listening to someone monotonously reciting "for i equals zero semicolon i less than array dot length semicolon i plus plus open curly brace" during your morning commute. That's not just programming - that's psychological warfare against humanity itself.

Software Engineering Interviews

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute TRAGEDY of tech interviews in one perfect image! 😭 You spend WEEKS mastering how to trace an umbrella for the technical test, only to face the NIGHTMARE of carving intricate fractals during the interview. Then you get the job and what do they have you do? Draw a TRIANGLE. A LITERAL TRIANGLE. The tech industry is GASLIGHTING us, sweetie! We're out here solving theoretical binary tree inversions while the actual job is updating button colors and restarting servers. The AUDACITY! 💅

The 1,000,000,000th Repository In GitHub Has Been Created!

When GitHub hit its billionth repository milestone, they decided to celebrate by... *checks notes*... congratulating someone who created a repo literally named "shit". Talk about anticlimactic! It's like planning a fancy dinner party and the guest of honor shows up in pajamas. This is the programming equivalent of the billionth customer at a supermarket getting confetti and balloons while buying nothing but toilet paper. The contrast between the formal congratulatory message and the crude repo name is just *chef's kiss* perfect comedy. And GitHub's hopeful message about "building something great" just adds that extra layer of unintentional irony. Billions of repositories later and we've peaked at... this. Beautiful.
