You... grinds teeth may... have a point.
I thought the joke here was that your unbalanced parentheses would make me angry (they did))
... is that not the point of the title?
I have this great idea for an app, we can go 70/30 on it! 70 for me because the idea is the hardest part after all. So basically it's Twitter plus Facebook plus Tinder with a built in MMO. You can get that done in a couple weeks, should be pretty easy right?
[Object object]
Actually it's [object Object]
Ah, piss. So it is.
I'm going to blame it on autocorrect, even though we both know I just got it wrong
Figure out if they prefer spaces or tabs, insist on the other.
Please note this won't work on Pythonistas as they've already had their spirit thoroughly broken.
Tabs set at 1 space.
A haiku for you:
Tabs or four spaces
Never a semicolon
Broken in spirit
What if you use tabs for indentations and space for alignment?
It's alright... but have you considered spaces for indentation and tabs for alignment?
I feel like this is a debate that doesn't exist - 4 spaces bound to tab is the only actual answer.
most things seem to have settled on this, but tabs are so much better for accessibility. programmers with bad vision can have trouble differentiating smaller indentation levels, while some of them just bump the font size up so high that 4 spaces takes up too much screen space. each one can set a tab width that is comfortable for them. https://alexandersandberg.com/articles/default-to-tabs-instead-of-spaces-for-an-accessible-first-environment/ has some good arguments
with a forced formatter and a configured editor there really isn't any argument for spaces
I remember people arguing over 2 vs 3 spaces, back when terminals only displayed 80 characters and every character width saved was a huge deal. (Oh god, memories of all the single-character variable names have returned to haunt me)
I can't go back, won't go back. I am so glad the Bad Old Days are over. *returns to coding on my dual-widescreen monitor setup*
Html is a programming language.
That’s right there with calling JS, PowerShell and Bash “programming languages”. I said what I said.
Edit: I’m a developer myself and it looks like I triggered everyone just as the post said. Thanks for playing!
Tell me you don't know what a programming language is without telling me you don't know what a programming language is
You guys are too slow, we need to hire more of you and let the sales teams use AI to add features the client asks without waiting for you.
AI can code now, in 2 mins I can create an app, so it shouldn’t take you long to make changes to this 10year old product.
Insist they index from 1. Like God and Fortran intended it. ;)
Fuck C and it's lazy shit pointer arithmetic array indexing shortcut. I.e. you just add the index × size(t) to the array pointer.
Bounds checking? We've heard of it.
It's fast though.
so what if it's 100x slower /nosarc
Like riding a motorcycle in a tee shirt and shorts.
And sun glasses, don't forget the aviators.
While Mr "I can't code without a garbage collector" is still putting on his backplate of "oh no pointers are bad" and a duck typed full face helmet, to ride his interpreted moped, the big boys, Mr C-ool and Mr ASSembly, are already downing grain alcohol at the finish line.
But then again I really don't like to step out of my embedded RTOS bubble. It really depends on what you want to accomplish and how complicated your system is.
Replace a semicolon (;) with a Greek Question mark (;), provided they're working in a language that uses semicolons at the end of every line, and their IDE doesn't highlight the difference (which some do now)
Fun fact, Rust has a special error message for this:
Unicode character ';' (Greek Question Mark) looks like a semicolon, but it is not.
It also detects other potentially confusing Unicode characters, like the division slash which looks like /.
I mean, the headline of this post already makes me irrationally angry. 😂
Y u no close brackets!?
I think that's the joke, Clyde!
I work as an embedded developer and when a new board is produced and half tested, every one expects fully functional code off the bat, right away.
Motherfucker, you didn't even qualify your hardware and you expect my code, that hasn't hit the new board, to be 100% functional, based on your mind map? We will find hardware issues that will inevitably be blamed on the code and spend hours "debugging" the code to eventually find out the hardware is shit.
"we're just trying to display why is this so hard? It's a ten minute job!"
short variable names, and the only vowel is 'i'
from multiprocessing import Lock
l = Lock()
flake8 .... way too ambiguous
skibidi = 42I inherited an old Japanese codebase. Tons of stuff was just single-letter variables. Apparently, this used to be at least somewhat common here. I spent a lot of time just updating code to replace vars with something meaningful (and found bonus bugs due to improper scoping with same var names as a bonus). Didn't have an IDE that would easily do it for me at the time and running something like sed felt too risky.
Correctly highlight when a programmer is being assumptive as a brick, even when assumptions are one of the biggest sins in programming. Done, you've triggered a lot of programmers.
Make them stand up.
You have no power here! I use a standing desk.
Micromanagement to speed up product release date. Daily meeting and status reports, work breakout categories such as ‘code design’, ‘code development’, ‘code documentation’, etc,etc (flash back gif of Apache helicopters flying over a jungle
Make them do project management.

This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
