The definition of a "meme" here is intentionally pretty loose. Images, screenshots, and the like are welcome!
But, keep it lighthearted and/or within our server's ideals.

Yeah, anyone can pick up a book and learn how to string code commands together. Not everyone who does so bothers to learn why they're doing it, or how to think through the implications of doing so. We see that over and over again in Silicon Valley today.
I imagine a philosophy background makes for well considered projects. I have a friend who was a developer in high school, who instead went into philosophy because he found his work absolutely soulless. No one he worked with wanted to think about what they were doing or why.
