Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

You could make the memes manually, or like a true programmer spend several hours if not days making a script that make them for you.
Yeah, I've seen the type... had a colleague in uni like that. And it's not like he's gonna need it for something else, but why spend an hour making them when he could spend 5 hours making the script to generate them in 1 second.
If this is how true programmers think, I'm sorry, I'm not a true programmer then 🤷.
I meant it as a joke, but the way I see it is as a "fast" and fun exercise where their's no pressure and the only judge is yourself. It's more about coding something for the fun of it.
I understand the logic, but this really seems like a complete waste of time. I'd rather spend that time coding something really useful than coding that.
It's not a waste of time if you enjoyed making it. See it as like reading a book or watching a show.
