All I Did Was Ask A Question

The developer food chain in its natural habitat. Stack Overflow: "Closed as duplicate" (without linking the original). Reddit: "Go Google it lmao" (while downvoting you to oblivion). Hacker News: "This is not an appropriate forum for questions" (followed by a 5-paragraph rant about how you're using the wrong language). 4chan: "KYS nooder" (somehow the most helpful response because at least they're honest about their contempt). Finding programming help online is like asking directions in four different countries where everyone hates tourists.

We Are Not The Same

You think your spaghetti code is worth hiding because it might make you money? Please. I hide my code because if anyone saw those nested if-statements and variable names like temp1 , temp2 , and please_work_final_v3 , I'd never get hired again. My GitHub is a carefully curated lie that bears no resemblance to the eldritch horrors I commit to private repos at 4AM.

The Great Software Illusion

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute TRUTH of this image is sending me into orbit! 🚀 The entire software industry—this massive, trillion-dollar behemoth—is literally being dragged forward by a tiny little train of Stack Overflow answers cobbled together by sleep-deprived heroes who decided to share their solutions with the world. Without those precious snippets of code that we frantically copy-paste at 2PM while our deadline looms at 3PM, the ENTIRE digital infrastructure would collapse into a heap of undefined behaviors and null pointer exceptions! The modern world hangs by a thread, and that thread is someone's 11-year-old answer with 4,362 upvotes explaining how to center a div. DEVASTATING accuracy!

Stolen Code

The eternal cycle of software development. When someone compliments your code, there are only two possibilities: you spent weeks perfecting it, or you found it on Stack Overflow five minutes ago. The smug grin says it all – that beautiful algorithm with perfect variable naming wasn't crafted through years of experience, it was ctrl+c, ctrl+v from some poor soul who actually did the work. The greatest programmers aren't those who write the best code, but those who know where to steal it from.
