Not to be that guy, but the image with all the traintracks might just be doing it's job perfectly.
Engineers love moving parts, known for their reliability and vigor
Vigor killed me
The one on the right prints “hello world” to the terminal
And takes 5 seconds to do it
Might is the important here
It gives you the right picture when you asked for a single straight track on the prompt. Now you have to spend 10 hours debugging code and fixing hallucinations of functions that don't exist on libraries it doesn't even neet to import.

Depends on the usecase. It's most likely at a trainyard or trainstation.
