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);}

    I am able to get components with unwanted lighting all over the place, but none where lighting is desirable.

    • Didn’t ask for lighting in my fans, got them.
    • Didn’t ask for lighting on my motherboard, got it.
    • Didn’t ask to a blinding light in the power indicator of my monitor, which is brighter than the screen itself. Had to tape it up.
    • Took a real while to find a cabinet without glass/acrylic stuff, because that’s all people sell nowadays.
    • Asked for a good backlit keyboard for a reasonable price. I had to make cutouts out of glow-in-the-dark stickers.
      • RGB everywhere by default, but getting even a single coloured backlight on a keyboard ramps up the price like anything.

      Some people use the RGB to indicate system loads by colour, so they can have a visual indicator for when a long process finishes

        That’s a nice way to use it.
        Not for me though, since I prefer audio cues for those things.

        I use the RGB on my gaming mouse to help find it in the dark, but that’s all. Since it’s usually too bright, all 3 RGB values are kept under 10 (out of 255).

        As for the keyboard, I am mostly fine with a single colour LED. RGB would be considered a nice to have for seasonally changing colours. I may find different zone based colours useful, but I need to find a good enough keyboard first.
