The CS Class Hierarchy Of Pain

The tech industry's version of "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times..." but make it about programming languages. Starting with Dennis Ritchie creating C in the golden age of computing, which led to prosperity that somehow birthed Python (because who needs performance when you can write readable code, right?). Python then spawned the AI hype train, which naturally created "vibe coding" – that beautiful era where devs let ChatGPT write their code while they sip oat milk lattes. And vibe coding? Well, that creates developers who can't actually code without an LLM holding their hand, which apparently circles back to creating "strong men" who'll have to rebuild everything from scratch. It's basically roasting the entire trajectory of software engineering from low-level mastery to AI-assisted hand-holding. The cycle suggests we're doomed to repeat this forever – strong engineers build powerful tools, those tools make things too easy, easy times create weak engineers, and weak engineers create such a mess that we need strong engineers again. History doesn't repeat itself, but it sure does rhyme in segfaults.

Oh. My. GOD. Trying to debug a regex pattern is LITERALLY like being an archaeologist deciphering ancient hieroglyphics with nothing but a magnifying glass and shattered dreams! You're squinting at a wall of mystical symbols like ^(?:([A-Z])(?![A-Z])|[a-z])+$ wondering what ancient deity you offended to deserve this punishment. One wrong character and your entire application implodes into a black hole of despair. And the worst part? When you finally figure it out, you'll have absolutely NO IDEA how you did it! Future you will look at that regex and weep uncontrollably.

Content This is a motherfucking website. And it's fucking pertect. Seriously, what the fuck else do you want? You probably build websit nome page is going to get you some tuCKing Awwward banner vou ca in glue to the top corner of your site. You think your 40-pound Query file and 83 polyfills give IE7 a bones Shit's lightweight and loads fast Fits on all vour shitty screens ooke the came in all vour shitty browsers The mothernicker's accessible to every asshole that visits vour site Shit's legible and gets vour tucking De ss it vou had one instead of must )mo Dics of minsters drinkmo cottee You. Are. Over-designing. Look at this shit. It's a motherfucking website. Why the fuck do you need to animate a fucking trendy-ass banner flag when I hover over that useless piece of shit? You spent hours on it and added 80 kilobvtes to vour fucking site. and some mothertucker jabbing at sep that chit but they don't see any You never knew it but this is vour perfect website Here It's fucking lightweight This entire page weighs less than the gradient-meshed facebook logo on your fucking Wordpress site. Did you seriously load 100kb of Query UI iust so vou could animate the fucking backeround color of a div? You loaded all 7 fontfaces of a shitty webfont iust so vou could say "Hi" at 100px height at the beginning of vour site! It's responsive You dumbose You thought von needed media queries to be reeponeive buteo Responsive meane the it sec to screensize it's viewed on This site doesn't care if vou're on an iMac or a motherfucking Tamagotchi It fucking works Look at this shit You can read ; Courses I'm Currently Teaching (1995) so vou and vour bitch-ass brows It has content on the fucking ser Fall 1995 me clel- come bebling button t ILS tags nd make CS101: How to literally use for-loops CSS89: You will seriously get rekt by this course dont take it Last edited: Sep. 29. 2016 Contact Information Phone: (333) 425-5253 Fax: (333) 888 - 3424 Email: iohn(at)universitv(dot)edu Office: Generic Hall. 415 M.

The eternal holy war of programming: zero-indexing vs one-indexing. Some languages start arrays at 0 (looking at you, C and friends), others insist on starting at 1 (MATLAB and Lua, you rebels). Then there's that one galaxy-brain developer who suggests starting at 0.5 as a "compromise." Because nothing says "I've solved computer science" like introducing floating point errors into your array indices. Next brilliant idea: using π as the starting index – because irrational numbers make PERFECT sense for memory addressing!
