Keeping CIA Busy: The Evolution Of Programmer Species

Evolution of programmers: from creating their own compilers and bragging about government surveillance to being completely dependent on Stack Overflow and trapped in Vim.

Left: The chad programmer of yesteryear, writing low-resolution 3D engines and custom compilers while casually mentioning CIA surveillance like it's a badge of honor.

Right: Today's programmer, desperately googling "how to exit vim" for the 47th time while clutching a coffee mug and whimpering for help. The Spotify icon in the corner is just *chef's kiss* - because nothing says "productive coding session" like spending 30 minutes creating the perfect lo-fi playlist.

Fun fact: The ":q!" command to exit Vim has been responsible for more developer tears than any code review in history.
