HTML: The "Programming Language" That Isn't

The modern JavaScript project directory, where config files multiply faster than rabbits. What started as a simple idea now requires 20+ config files just to tell your computer how to run "hello world". The character on the left represents the old-school developer shocked at seeing a modern TypeScript project with its ecosystem of linters, type checkers, and build tools. Meanwhile, the character on the right is just trying to survive in a world where your package.json needs its own support group.

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute MELTDOWN happening here is what I live for! 💅 This poor soul is having an existential crisis because people keep saying "Golang" instead of just "Go" and I am LIVING for this level of rage! The tea is SCALDING hot: Go was named "Go" - short, sweet, impossible to Google. But nooooo, people had to start calling it "Golang" because otherwise you'd be searching for a VERB instead of a programming language. The AUDACITY! And now this person is threatening to rename everything! "Rustlang"! "TypeScriptyMcTypeFace.io"! The DRAMA! The THEATRICS! All because some developers can't stick to the official two-letter name that's basically unsearchable online! I'm framing this rant and hanging it on my wall. Peak developer frustration caught in the wild! *chef's kiss*

The eternal struggle between tech-savvy developers and clueless relatives who think CSS is an actual degree. Nothing quite like your uncle bragging about his nephew's "CSS degree" while the poor kid probably just watched a 3-hour YouTube tutorial on flexbox. The look of silent disappointment in that last panel is the same face developers make when someone asks them to "just make a quick website" for free because "it's just typing, right?"

The evolution of developer excuses is a beautiful thing to witness. In 2000, power outages were the go-to alibi. By 2012, we blamed flaky internet connections. But 2024? We've reached peak dependency – "Sorry boss, ChatGPT is down so my coding abilities have mysteriously vanished." Let's be honest, how many of us have secretly copy-pasted AI-generated code directly into production? The uncomfortable truth is that modern development sometimes feels like being a professional prompt engineer with Stack Overflow as backup. And the title? "Nah We Have Google Bard" just confirms we always have a backup AI to blame our productivity on!

The ENTIRE TRAGIC EXISTENCE of a programmer summed up in one image! 😭 We start as innocent babes, then BOOM—middle age hits and we're screaming "I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS CODE ISN'T WORKING!" while pulling our hair out. Then the ULTIMATE BETRAYAL happens! Just when we finally get our code working, we have absolutely NO IDEA why it's working! And then we DIE. That's it. That's the whole programmer lifecycle. No glory, no understanding—just confusion from cradle to grave! The yellow line of despair just keeps plummeting downward like our will to live during a production outage!

The EMOTIONAL ROLLERCOASTER of seeing a Cloudflare invoice notification! First panel: absolute PANIC ATTACK because you forgot you signed up for their service and now you're convinced you're about to be financially RUINED. Second panel: the sweet, sweet relief when you see it's $0.00 and remember you're on the free tier. I swear my heart stops EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. that orange cloud logo appears in my inbox. The free tier giveth life, but first it must taketh years off your lifespan! 💸😱
