Programming is a crazy thing to do. It's like learning to speak a long-lost language that only a minority of people know, and even half of them don't understand what's going on a lot of the time, but somehow it makes the machines that most of us rely on daily work (or at least look like they are doing that to the untrained eye). While working with it has its upsides, it is also notorious for being a pastime and profession where coming up against problems and solving them is kind of the whole deal. It goes without saying that this can be stressful, but at least the coders of this world have progamming memes that allow them to blow off some steam. There is a lot of humor to be made from coding precisely because it can be so difficult, and also because it is part of the reason that memes exist at all.
