Wholesome: Tech-Challenged Grandpa Reveals He Goes to Brick and Mortar Stores to Download Their Apps

It’s absolutely mind-boggling to think of all the tech-related advancements that have occurred over the last, oh, fifty years. And while we do poke fun at the technical abilities (or lack thereof) of the geriatrics in our lives, we’ve really got to hand it to them: There’s been a lot to keep up with. While …

The Funniest Programming Memes of the Week (March 19, 2023)

Happy Sunday, programmers! I may not be one of you, but I understand your struggle. One of my best friends in college was a computer science major, so I know exactly what it’s like! Just kidding! I know I could not have lived the life that he did. I was sitting pretty getting a simple …

Cruel Manager Fires Tech Employee in an Incredibly Uncouth Manner

I do not envy anyone who has to fire others. Letting somebody down easy is a skill I simply don’t have. Every time I’ve broken up with someone, I have done it clunkily and a bit insensitively, which is really not ideal for delivering bad news. You need to tell the other person what’s happening …

The Funniest Programming Memes of the Week (February 5, 2023)

Being a relatively new programmer is like living in two completely different worlds. Non-programmers think you are the absolute dog’s meow. They act like you cured cancer, achieved world peace, and are worth 20 billion dollars. That kind of validation for choosing a well-paying career path can feel good, but it wears off soon enough …

Tech Bro Roasted for Whining About Uber Trip From Manhattan to Philly

The tech industry: it doesn’t exactly have a reputation for being in touch with the working man. We may increasingly rely on the products of it to exist, but that doesn’t mean the people involved in making them have any interest in relating to the rest of us (just take a glance at the ongoing …

The Funniest Programming Memes of the Week (January 22, 2023)

The insane ways that tech companies treat their employees never cease to amaze me. This past Friday, workers at Google in NYC found out whether they were getting laid off with a borderline dystopian method. Workers lined up early to test their employee badges. If they scanned it and the light turned green, they didn’t …

Tech Bro Gets Roasted for Review of Elon Musk’s ‘Vegas Loop’ Underground Road

It’s hard to imagine that there are still fans of Elon Musk’s work out there these days. However, they do exist — especially when it comes to his pre-Twitter investments. Despite many pointing out the flaws and poor craftmanship of the Tesla, there are still plenty of devotees to the vehicle, as well as Mr. …

The Funniest Programming Memes of the Week (January 8, 2023)

One of the coolest things about being a programmer is the lack of formality. People laughed at Mark Zuckerberg in the 2000s for enabling a culture where everyone wore a t-shirt and sweatpants to work. These days, it’s not even a second thought that tech workers are not dressing up in a suit and tie. …

The Funniest Programming Memes of the Week (December 18, 2022)

It seems like artificial intelligence is coming to replace everything these days. So many news sources are reporting on AI being able to solve complex coding problems or write whole essays. Allegedly it can create art too, but all of the robot art I’ve seen has like seven weird phantom knuckles, so I’m not entirely …
