The computer is undoubtedly one of the greatest human inventions of all time, but that doesn’t mean it comes without frustrations. In fact, it is a grand irony that the more you know about them, the more annoying you are likely to find them. It is the fate of the humble programmer (assuming they’re working on the legal side of things) to ensure that all the normies have as much of a user-friendly and pain-free experience using their devices as possible, and that doesn’t come without its sacrifices. Sometimes, things like sleep, free time, and a will to live can be in short supply.

The upside of this is getting to enjoy the vast and varied world of programming memes, where coders with a sense of humor get to crack jokes and hash out their woes and resentments. They make for a welcome break from trying to fix that darned error.
