Shakespeare Was Really Ahead Of His Time

Ah, the sacred scrolls of developer archetypes. The Barbarian who worships C and recites man pages is just your average Unix greybeard who thinks anything after Perl is heresy. The Rogue is basically every crypto bro with questionable ethics and a VPN. Wizards are those mythical 10x developers whose code is so advanced no one can maintain it after they leave. Clerics are the TDD zealots who'd rather write tests than actually ship anything. And Druids? Just sysadmins who've spent so much time in server rooms they've started identifying as network packets. I've worked with all five. The Druid still owes me $20 and insists I call him "FoxTail69" at happy hour.

Oh sweet summer child! That "white dot" is the file being modified indicator—basically screaming "HEY, YOU HAVEN'T SAVED YOUR CHANGES YET!" But the real horror show? This person is casually displaying their plaintext password file for all of Reddit to see. Nothing says "hack me please" like showing off your passwords.csv with actual credentials. Somewhere, a security engineer is having heart palpitations while david13, john87, and friends are about to learn a valuable lesson about information sharing.

This meme is peak database chaos energy! Changing your name to " OR ""=" is basically the digital equivalent of bringing a skeleton key to a database party. When a poorly secured system tries to query your name, it'll execute SELECT * FROM users WHERE name = "" OR ""="" which—surprise!—evaluates to TRUE for every record. Suddenly you're not just accessing your account, you're accessing EVERYONE'S account. It's like telling the bouncer "I'm either on the list OR 2=2" and watching them let you into every VIP room simultaneously. Database developers everywhere just felt a cold shiver down their spine.

Watching security teams cheer on script kiddies is the tech equivalent of playing with your food. These devs set up a fake database honeypot and are gleefully watching some poor soul try every SQL injection trick in the book. The would-be hacker is throwing everything at it - from basic quotes to that classic DROP DATABASE command - while the team's practically popping popcorn watching the logs. It's like setting up an elaborate mouse trap and then rooting for the mouse. "Almost got the DB name!" Yeah, and I'm almost a millionaire every payday.

In Rust, you have to explicitly mark code as unsafe when you're about to do something that might summon demons from the ninth circle of memory hell. Meanwhile in C++, the entire language is basically one giant unsafe block where dangling pointers and buffer overflows are just part of the authentic experience. It's like driving a car with no seatbelts, airbags, or brakes—but hey, at least it's fast! The irony is that in C++, the unsafe part is invisible—it's just assumed you enjoy living dangerously. Rust at least has the courtesy to make you type out "I know what I'm doing" before it lets you shoot yourself in the foot.

Ah, the legendary "security by obscurity" approach! This poor soul thinks removing their password from a list of common passwords will protect them from hackers. Meanwhile, they're literally broadcasting their password ("dolphins") by showing the diff where they're removing it from the file. It's like putting a "DEFINITELY NOT HIDING MONEY HERE" sign on your mattress. The 263 thumbs up and 353 laughing reactions show everyone appreciates this spectacular self-own. Security experts everywhere just collectively facepalmed so hard they broke their mechanical keyboards.
