The Chad Notepad Enjoyer

SWEET MERCIFUL CODE GODS! Someone actually wrote a bot that posts the EXACT SAME recycled jokes we see daily on r/ProgrammerHumor! 😱 This masterpiece of automation randomly selects from the greatest hits collection: "Linux > Windows," "JavaScript sucks," and my personal favorite "how to exit vim" (a question that has trapped developers in terminal purgatory since the dawn of time). The tragic part? This bot would ABSOLUTELY farm more karma than my actual coding projects. Why spend weeks building something useful when you can just scream "SEMICOLON MISSING" and watch the upvotes roll in? Programming culture is officially eating itself!

The eternal addict's bargaining of every developer who claims their text editor will eventually rival VS Code after "just one more plugin." Neovim users are particularly guilty of this behavior—installing 47 plugins to get functionality VS Code ships with out of the box, then spending 3 days configuring it all in Lua just to feel superior while editing the same 5 files. The tears really sell the desperation.

The eternal editor war continues, but now with Olympic precision! On the left, we have the high-tech sniper with all the bells and whistles—VS Code armed with AI copilot and enough extensions to crash your RAM. Perfect form, specialized gear, probably takes 30 seconds just to load. Meanwhile on the right, there's our Notepad++ champion—slightly disheveled, glasses askew, but still somehow getting the job done with what's essentially a text file and a prayer. The coding equivalent of bringing a pistol to an artillery fight. And then there's me with Nano, watching from the audience with a slingshot and a rock. At least I can exit the editor without Googling how.

Ah, the classic Vim switcheroo! Nothing says "I'm a hardcore developer" like claiming to use Vim while secretly wielding Visual Studio Code behind the scenes. It's the programming equivalent of pretending you read Kafka when your bookshelf is actually full of Marvel comics. The white-knuckle grip on those cards tells the whole story—the desperate attempt to maintain street cred among terminal purists while enjoying the sweet, sweet comfort of modern IDE features. Because let's face it, nobody wants to admit they'd rather have intellisense than carpal tunnel syndrome from typing :wq! eight thousand times a day.

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute DEVOLUTION of programmers is too real! 😭 On the left, we have the CHAD programmer of yesteryear - building an ENTIRE OPERATING SYSTEM FROM SCRATCH, talking directly to God, and casually mentioning CIA conspiracies while coding in 640x480 resolution like some kind of digital BARBARIAN! And what do we have now? A pathetic little doge in a coffee sweater, TRAPPED in Vim, desperately clinging to Stack Overflow and Spotify for emotional support! Can't even exit a text editor without begging for help! The audacity! The TRAGEDY! For the uninitiated: TempleOS was an operating system coded entirely by one man (Terry Davis) who claimed divine inspiration. Meanwhile, Vim is that text editor where generations of programmers have been held hostage because nobody remembers how to exit it (it's :q! by the way, YOU'RE WELCOME).

Ah, the evolution of our noble profession! Remember when developers were depicted as muscular gods who could write flawless code without Stack Overflow, build entire games in Assembly, send rockets to the moon, and fix memory leaks by manually adjusting pointers? Fast forward to today's reality: frantically Googling basic CSS centering (still an unsolved mystery of computer science), begging ChatGPT to fix our syntax errors, getting trapped in Vim like it's some kind of developer hazing ritual, and the classic "fix one bug, spawn three more" hydra effect. The greatest irony? Those "superhuman" developers from the past would probably spend three hours debugging their Assembly code only to realize they forgot a semicolon. We've just outsourced our impostor syndrome to AI assistants.
