Welcome to Programmer Humor!
This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
they should also ban web developers who refer to themselves as ninjas, especially code ninjas
Ah yes, I've spent decades cringing when I meet a self-proclaimed or even peer-proclaimed "rockstar", "ninja", "guru", "jedi", or probably a half dozen other "cool" designations for a tech worker.
We fixed that one: https://codewithrockstar.com/
What if you do it ironically? Like calling yourself a Code Ninja Jedi 10x Rockstar 🚀?
Bullshit. This started long ago. We're deep in the midst of it now.
Ninjas, super-heroes, black-belt and terms like that are known gender-excluders. I’ve been through a couple of adjustment sessions for company standard job descriptions and it’s unreal how you can change the applicant mix by wording.
