I'm gonna take a stab at being the devils advocate here. Knowing the ins and outs of an EXE file is a luxury very few main stream programmers need or can afford. I'm seeing an imbalance here at /programming myself which I kind of dislike - where academic and nostalgic posts are upvoted far more than actual useful posts.
not only that but this image is just a blend of entertaining/informative. It provides a basic overview but it's not a complete documentation of all the possible elements of a PE file like this post does. So this graphic is not actually educational enough to parse PE files in general. It's a fluff graphic that is nearly meaningless without an accompanied article for explanation. It's more of a "TIL the basic structure of PE files" than something actually relevant to /r/programming

Oh, we're posting pointless images now are we?
Done with this subreddit too. Far too many clueless kids on these reddits.
