What Does HTML Stand For

The eternal promise of Python in a nutshell. After 20 years in the industry, I've watched countless devs get seduced by those "How to do X in Python!!!" tutorials that make everything seem magically simple. Just import someLibrary and call someLibrary.doEverything() and you're done! The reality? You'll spend the next 6 hours debugging dependency conflicts and reading through GitHub issues from 2017. The "1 marbillion likes" is just chef's kiss - nothing gets more engagement than making complex things look trivially easy. Welcome to modern programming, where we're all just one import statement away from solving world hunger.

Ah, the dependency economy strikes again! Nothing says "Make JavaScript Great Again" like slapping tariffs on all your package managers. 67% on NPM? That's how you end up with node_modules the size of Wyoming but still missing that one critical dependency. And Cargo at 90%? Rust developers about to start smuggling crates across the border. Meanwhile, Homebrew at just 14% is clearly the "very fine package manager on both sides." The only thing growing faster than these tariffs is your package-lock.json file.

Oh, the HORROR! Forget solitary confinement—this judge just handed down the most SAVAGE punishment in legal history! 💀 Two years of JavaScript?! Might as well sentence them to manually debugging an infinite loop while sitting on a throne of semicolons! The Finnish prison system thinks they're being progressive with their "rehabilitation" but forcing someone to deal with JavaScript's chaotic type coercion and callback hell is basically a war crime that violates the Geneva Convention. I'd literally rather break rocks in a chain gang than try to remember if I need to use "==" or "===" for the ten millionth time. The TRAUMA!

This meme perfectly captures the existential crisis of being a software engineer. Your boss thinks you're just sipping coffee all day (clearly they've never seen your 3 AM debugging sessions). Your friends imagine you're living the dream with gaming and foosball breaks (ha, if only). Mom still thinks you're some kind of computer repair wizard (bless her heart). But the reality? You're just a pasta chef, frantically trying to untangle spaghetti code that someone else wrote five years ago with zero documentation. The irony of calling yourself an "engineer" while spending 90% of your time wondering why adding a semicolon fixed everything is just *chef's kiss*. The pasta metaphor is painfully accurate - both require hours of preparation, both get messy quickly, and both leave you questioning your life choices at 2 AM.

Ah, the classic cultural divide in web development. In the UK, those little tracking files your browser stores are called "biscuits," not "cookies." Just kidding—they're still called cookies in code, but the British term for cookies (the edible kind) is indeed biscuits. So when someone searches "do British websites use biscuits," they're accidentally creating the perfect programmer dad joke. The browser doesn't discriminate based on nationality—it'll track you with cookies whether you're having tea or coffee with your session storage.

Ah, "Vibe Coding" – where the only requirement is vibes and absolutely zero coding knowledge. Started as industry satire, now it's an actual 4-week course with a fancy instructor in a green suit promising to make you feel good about not understanding a single line of code. This is like offering "Vibe Surgery" where you just hold a scalpel and manifest healing energy. Next up: "Vibe Engineering" – build bridges with positive affirmations and Instagram filters. The tech industry has officially completed its transformation from "we need skilled engineers" to "just bring your authentic self and we'll figure out how to deploy that to production."
