    They’re both making the same joke, but one got upvoted and one got downvoted. I don’t understand people

      This is a fake screenshot that aims to highlight how new programmers can not understand programming terms and ask about it only to have their question misunderstood.

        New programmers. Lol. I see people who have been doing this for 20 years, and don’t know how to read an error message.

      The downvotes seem to indicate: don’t put this fake garbage here and waste people’s time

      The upvotes seem to indicate: since we’re here in a joke post, the joke answer is appropriate and funny. Added benefit that it is in the form of a very unhelpful response (merely rephrasing the error message) which is a relatable experience
