This is the kind of love I need in life 💜

So cute! And practical!

For half a second I read this as "to add a couple of features to my wife"

You can also combine your names into a Linux distribution.

Deb + Ian = Debian.

I bet they've broken up since

[-] MrothersInArms@lemmy.zip 98 points 1 year ago

The word "Debian" was formed as a portmanteau of the first name of his then-girlfriend (later ex-wife) Debra Lynn and his own first name

Wiki

[-] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 54 points 1 year ago

"Later ex-wife" is like three tenses of information at once.

I was thinking about you when I cleaned up this codebase and removed a lot of redundant functions.

[-] float@feddit.de 43 points 1 year ago

That sounds more like breaking up.

I made a website for my wife with a list of a ton of reasons why I love her and each time she taps the screen it shows a new one.

So... that is a thing you can do for the cost of a domain name and some cheap hosting.

This person misunderstands a beautiful function code can be very sexy or maybe I'm a odd girl.

No. They'll just name an entire lineup of the worlds biggest computers after your daughter.

I wrote an automation specifically for my partner to unlock the front door when they arrive home.

Also we got a sexy time button.

Home Assistant is a path to what many would consider... Unnatural.

The creator of MySQL, MaxDB and MariaDB named them after his children My, Max and Maria, so why not

I thought you were kidding, but his daughter is actually named "My".

His first kid was called „My“?

I mean Steve Jobs named the Lisa after the daughter he disowned. There’s opportunities here.

When I was learning programming I wrote a small program that I called for_you.exe. It printed an animated ASCII penis ejaculating on some boobs. I emailed it to my girlfriend and thankfully she thought it was hilarious. We're still together.

[-] bigkahuna1986@lemmy.ml 35 points 1 year ago

You can tell your age by the fact that you were emailing an exe file.

It can swing both ways. Half of Taylor Swift’s songs don’t paint her ex’s in a good light.

Keeping programming as far away from my relationships as possible.

Instead, I distract them with the fact that I'm a pretty damned good cook and know where the best hole in the wall restaurants are.

Naming variables after loved ones. Stephanie += 1 Stephanie/bob = Jeff

If Jeff == Stephanie: Jerome(Stevens)

Well, I made my girlfriend a GUI app that converts subtitles from Windows-1251 to utf-8 encoding so that she doesn't have to remember how to do it. And I didn't even name it after her...
