Meme Monday!
Today's cover image comes from last week's thread.
DEV is an inclusive space! Humor in poor taste will be downvoted by mods.
Reminder: Every day is Meme Monday on DUMB DEV ✨

yeah, its crazy, lady is speaking reasonably about the incidence of sexual assault and how that's bad. when i first saw it, i was expecting her to be haranguing some guy about nothing.
I think this is something you've gotta be careful about with memes, especially in more professional settings. Their semiotics are never completely straightforward, and we need to think about all the ways what we say can be read.
Mahmoud HarmouchJul 8, 2025True, but i think the pyramids are powered by the Pharaoh's wisdom which is connected to the divine, kinda like an AI powered program.
Massimo ArtizzuJul 9, 2025To be fair, it took them decades.
... Which means they probably had Teams.
Ashley ChildressJul 8, 2025I needed this earlier today! I might have to make it a permanent status at this point 🧞
Peter VivoJul 8, 2025That why I created a two simple function works as a framework solution: dev.to/pengeszikra/javascript-grea...
... but I am exactly tried as this man.
Paul J. LucasJul 7, 2025Regarding the cover image, it's actually much closer to rubber duck debugging.

The cover images is the most hearted post from last week's Meme Monday. We talked about that in the comments.
Solve Computer ScienceJul 7, 2025It's true, but not for every programmer. IMHO it's as fun as coding.
If you don't like it (or are lazy, or don't have time) you should use sw like FastAPI, which at least makes you want to add some docs tightly coupled with the code.
grant horwoodJul 7, 2025write the documentation first
write the tests second
write the comments third
write the code

my experience following this model is that wind up with far better insight into what i have to write and how i should go about it.
writing the documentation defines the spec
writing the tests determine if it will work
writing the comments helps layout the implementation (far easier to refactor comments than code)
once that's done, the actual code usually just falls into place.- Mario SantiniJul 9, 2025
It really depends on the domain you're working on.
If the app have to go inside a very complicated system of other apps and handle data records that can changed just few days before the end of development you can just update the code and then the other stuff.
DotallioJul 7, 2025Happy Meme Monday! Always look forward to seeing the best coding memes roll in today - who’s got a fresh one ready?
