Text on the meme
Developers back then: ”Let's implement everything ourselves. We cannot afford to pay 100k for all the libraries we need.” Developers today: ”LOL. npm install left-pad reverse-string print-doggo-terminal send-nudez dancing-cat”
What it means

The meme contrasts developers in the past, who implemented everything themselves because they could not afford expensive libraries, with developers today, who install absurdly specific packages for every tiny task. The punchline mocks modern npm dependency culture and the infamous left-pad incident, while adding ridiculous package names like “send-nudez” and “dancing-cat” for comic effect.
