Trillion Dollar Company vs. One Calculating Boi
The eternal battle between sleek corporate design and actual functionality! On the left, we have Apple's calculator app—minimalist, expensive, and somehow displaying "4096" which is probably the number of dollars you spent on the device. On the right, our trusty scientific calculator with its sin(45°)=√2/2 proudly displayed, ready to handle calculus while Apple's calculator is still figuring out how to do percentages. This is the perfect metaphor for modern tech: paying premium prices for devices that can't even match the functionality of a $15 calculator from 1998. Sure, your iPhone looks cool at the coffee shop, but good luck solving differential equations on it!
