This makes me wonder, who else here isn't actually a programmer but an IT professional who appreciates the content?

I dabble in both. These cables are nowhere near messed up enough to count as cable gore. I saw a rack where someone decided that the VOIP switches didn't need port maps so every time they moved a phone around (don't ask me why they didn't just fix it in the config) they would just run a new patch cable from the port on the switch to the new port on the patch panel. Rinse and repeat for about 5 years and the rats nest of yellow cabling was a beauty to behold.
I'm neither, but I do have a very small homelab. I get to imagine the spaghetti mess of cables in my virtualized system.
I am neither. Just an idiot trying to understand stuff.
Why are they smiling though
Because no one can work until they figure it out.

Your kids will love crimping their own patch cables.
RJ45A, RJ45B, Crossover gives endless possibilities and hours of fun.
And for the older kids there's VLANs and BGP.
BGP is more a settlers of Catan style game, I would think.
With the occasional hostile takeover
Or OSPF if your lazy... RIP if your lazy AND old.
I am both, but neither. And the cables in that picture are far too neat to count as cable gore lol.
I've seen this one before, and it's still great. But I wonder who those models are. Do they know they're an internet meme?
The truth is I would buy it...
I've been following cableporn for a very long time and I still don't really know why things I set up as they are. I have intricate knowledge of the software side of things but hardware is alien to me. By playing around with it as a game I'd finally grasp the concepts.
With LEDs that turn different xolors, I reckon that would fun for all the family!
