Computer Software and Hardware Then vs Now

Text on the meme

40 YEARS AGO Computer Software Computer Hardware I have optimized my code so much that I now can run crysis on a potato what is a megabyte I’m scared TODAY Computer Hardware Computer Software help my chat client needs 9 gb ram I can perform ray tracing in real time while calculating billion digits of pi while downloading 10 tb of data

What it means

A two-panel Doge meme compares computers from 40 years ago with computers today. In the past, optimized software could run demanding games on weak hardware, while today simple software requires enormous memory and powerful hardware can perform advanced tasks. The joke exaggerates modern bloat and hardware demands as a reaction to inefficient software. EN: A two-panel Doge meme compares computers from 40 years ago with computers today.
