Programmers Then and Now
Programmers in 1960 writing code to go to the Moon Programmers in 2026 “Build me this feature” “DING DING” “I don’t write code anymore” “Change the button color to green” “Go to the Moon, make no mistakes”
A black-and-white comparison shows a 1960 programmer managing a huge stack of technical documents, while 2026 programmers are depicted as crude crying wojak-style figures reacting to ordinary software requests. The joke contrasts the ambitious, difficult work of early programmers with the perceived triviality and absurd demands of modern software development.
