    What does this have to do with being a beginner programmer and punching down? The meme is about how we do programming in general today vs the way it was done before.

      The meme reads as “if you can’t do these things you’re dumb” the things you’ve typed as examples of how coding is done nowadays are similar to things that any beginner would be typing into a search engine as well.

      Your meme doesn’t compare between coding practices, it compares between the results of early programmers doing the absolute most with the hardware that was purpose built for their needs to people who literally don’t know how to program looking up information and progressing their knowledge.

        Again, the meme says absolutely nothing about beginners. It’s the coding practices of experienced developers today. And if those look indistinguishable from beginner practices to you, then perhaps you see the problem.
