You count one finger up as the same as no fingers up? Counting is not the same as an index.

Is it pissible for programmers to encounter a silly little meme without taking it serious and going into a frenzy explaining that actually its premise is wrong

samus12345 ,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

No, it would be pretty painful to piss something like that.

    I actually caught it after I posted but liked it so kept it in

    Myrhial ,

    I immediately angrility opened the comments to respond. I think it’s just a side effect of working in this field. I have to be completely literal to the computer so in communication I prefer the same style. I will argue with people on the use of ambiguous language. More so if they are analysts. I can understand the business doesn’t always fully grasp the concept but if you give me a functional analysis it best be 100% clear. And yes, I’ve been tested for autism, it certainly flagged up as a possible trait, but it’s hard to know if this hasn’t just become an ingrained preference. Sure does help me when communicating with neurodivergent people, and I’ve heard from several neurotypical people as well that they actually appreciate the clarity!

    I didn’t even understand the meme until I saw the comments. It’s not funny if it’s nonsensical

    He doesn’t want to push at such a late hour. Give him a break.

    eestileib ,

    How many times did I push at 2am so I could go home, get to the freeway entrance, realized I fucked something up, sighed, and turned around to go back and fix it…

    (This was like 1999, we didn’t have access to Perforce from home).

    After a year or so I realized I should just develop the willpower to check it in after sleeping on it.

    jaybone ,

    Oh god Perforce.

    How does she look like a different person in every pane?

    Cethin ,

    I’m pretty sure there are two different people. Look at their clothes.

<span style="color:#323232;">def count_fingers(hand: list): 
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    count = len(hand)
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    if count != 5:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        if count &lt; 5:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">            raise Exception("Check if fingers missing, or just smart ass")
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        else:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">            raise Exception("Oh... oh no.")
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    return count
</span>
    HurgletOfficial ,

    You can do

    
<span style="color:#323232;">if (count := len(hand)) != 5:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    # do something with "count"
</span>

    Btw, looks much nicer

    conditional_soup ,

    I’ll use ternary operators when you force them into my cold, dead hands

    HurgletOfficial ,

    It’s not the ternary operator, it is the walrus operator introduced in Python 3.8 if I’m correct

    conditional_soup ,

    You are correct. I came back to say that I’ll use the walrus operator when it’s pushed into my cold, dead hands, but… I might actually use it, now that I’ve refreshed myself on it.

    I once asked some of my friends what they were up to at work.

    An accountant friend said “I’m making a VBA macro to restructure and convert our customer’s XML data into an SQL transaction so that we can import it into our accounting system”.

    A car mechanic friend said: “I’m trying to find the pinout for this obscure ECU so that I can flash in this profile that I’ve tweaked with hex editor”

    A teacher friend said: “I’m setting up integration between moodle and shopify so that we wouldn’t have to enroll our students manually”.

    And every time my response was “YOU WHAT NOW? You should work in IT”

    And they always responded with something along the lines of “Yeah, nah, I’m not that smart”

    And here I am, slapping webpages and forms together, earning more than all of them combined. That’s really unfair, but I’m not in a position to complain.

    jjjalljs , in How the IT guys see the users

    Most people are fine.

    One time I had a boss receive a spreadsheet I sent, print it out, and ask the team to verify the sums by hand.

    But most of the people I work with are fine.

    Pyr_Pressure ,

    My current boss will print out Excel sheets and use a calculator to sum things and then write in sharpie on the page the changes that he wants me to make to the sheet.
