A meme saying: “STOP DOING COMPUTER SCIENCE”

  • Computers were supposed to solve math, NOT to be programmed
  • C is a LETTER, not a language
  • Wanna print() something? Write it in a PAPER with a PEN
  • “I’m writing a recursive method with threads to optimize the CPU usage in a 0.02%” THIS IS A NONSENSICAL STATEMENT MADE BY DERANGED PEOPLE

Look at what PROGRAMMERs have been demanding your respect for, after all the led lights we put in their computers: (This is real COMPUTER SCIENCE, done by real COMPUTER SCIENTISTS)

  • FUNNY COLORED LETTERS (with a picture of syntax-highlighted code)
  • 178 COMPILATION ERRORS??? (with a picture of compilation errors
  • A FAKE TEAPOT YOU CAN’T USE (with a picture of a 3d rendered teapot.

IF PROGRAMMING WAS REAL HOW COME NOBODY THOUGH IN DOING while(true{print(money);}

      Yes, it’s just buried under crap and and redundant copies of itself. And possibly still written in Fortran.

      I think it’s only getting worse. I always assumed the next generation will be more tech savvy than the last one. I had to learn windows/mac/dos when i grew up, just to play some video games. There was a lot of troubleshooting and hardware problems i had to figure out. When i was 25, people would tell me that their 5 year old can use their ipd better than they can. (Ipads just came out.) I thought these kids are gonna be computer wizards when they grow up. It was the absolute opposite. I talked to these kids when they were around 16 again, and they were absolutely clueless. If it wasn’t an ipad or an app they could use, they might as well play with a piece of glass. Can you do … On an ipad? Hmm, what app is that? It’s not an app is something you do, like a setting. Hmmm… I’ll check the app store.

        Yep, 1990-2010 was kind of the golden age for learning computers on the fly. They were too rare and inaccessible before, and they’re too polished and sandboxed now.
