Calling all programming enthusiasts! It doesn’t matter if you work professionally as a software engineer or if you’re just learning to become a programmer – you will definitely relate to the content of this post much more than any other mortal human being, like me, who has no clue about coding and all the ‘black magic’ happening ‘inside’ of our computers.

In order to get a better understanding of what the featured jokes mean, especially if you’re out of the computer science universe, we got in touch withSaulė, an expert in programming, who works for a solution-based company based in Lithuania. In her free time, she likes to travel and explore the unknown all around the world. Asked to briefly explain what programming is to someone who has never heard of it before, Saulė was kind enough to tell us: “It’s like talking in different kinds of languages. The programmer has specific grammar and with it should explain to a foreigner what to do. So the programmer gets the client’s requirements or problem and has to explain the solution to the computer.”
There are a lot of misconceptions and stereotypes related to each profession. We know that many of them exist regarding the world of programming. We were curious what are some common misconceptions that programmers would like to debunk. Saulė mentioned a couple of them: “Men are less emotional and more logical than women, so they are better programmers. It’s not true. Quality of work depends on personality, skills, and professionalism.”
Lastly, asked what some common themes or topics that programmers often joke about are, and why this particular humor resonates with the community the most, Saulė highlighted: “Most of the time programmers need to think in a way that computers ‘understand’. Meaning using math logic. So a lot of jokes come from ‘pure’ logic, which doesn’t make sense or are really silly in the real world. Also, tool names, phrases, etc. have two meanings.”
