Ah, the classic StackOverflow NaN test debate! Someone wrote a beautifully elegant isNaN() function that simply checks if a number isn't equal to itself ( num != num ), which is actually brilliant because that's the only time equality fails in JavaScript/Python. But then some principled developer comes along and declares it "prohibited witchcraft" despite admitting it works perfectly. This is coding purity culture at its finest. "Yes, your three-line solution works flawlessly, but I'm morally obligated to insist you use the official 50-line implementation with seventeen edge cases instead." The real witchcraft is how StackOverflow manages to turn elegant solutions into religious debates since 2009.

The eternal cycle of programming humor in four panels: 1. Innocent brain thinks of a joke while browsing r/ProgrammerHumor 2. Posts contrived scenario about computers being annoying (because let's face it, that's 90% of our job) 3. Gets absolutely destroyed by gatekeeping veterans with comments like "HOW BAD ARE YOU, IS THIS YOUR FIRST DAY PROGRAMMING?!" 4. Vows to never post again And thus another potential contributor to open source dies before they even make their first PR. Tale as old as Stack Overflow.
