They hurt like a bitch too. Swam across one while snorkeling in Florida a few months ago. Had a couple tentacles wrapped around my arm. Not fun. And flared up again 2 weeks later. Also not fun.

“You can fucking try…” 🙃

I mean, not all of those are less cute.

I mean, we all know about it now. Does that ruin the kink for them? Or do they like that we know?

Its the min value of the input params, or Infinity.

And the reason it’s Infinity If there is no input, for better or worse, under the hood the method is assigning a variable, min, the highest value possible and then comparing it to each element in the list, reassigning it when it encounters an element lower than its value at the time. So it will obviously always be reassigned if there are any elements at all (if they’re less than Infinity, I guess). But if there are no elements, it’s never reassigned, and thus returns Infinity. It could have just signed min to the first element instead if Infinity, but that would lead to a runtime error when min was run without a function. If you’re not going to throw a runtime error though, it makes sense for min to return Infinity because, what other number could you return that couldn’t actually be the minimum

Narrator: “It wasn’t B.”

Say when…

I had a manager once tell me during a casual conversation with complete sincerity that one day with advancements in compression algorithms we could get any file down to a single bit. I really didn’t know what to say to that level of absurdity. I just nodded.

Close up off monstrous, horrifying, dangerous gravity dragon… pull back and back and back, and realize it was 1000x magnified. It’s magnificent roar a barely audible squeak.

‘#include cpptrace’ gays drawing dick outlines over here.

So… I was just trying to be funny and sarcastic. I added the “/s” as I realized someone was probably going to take me seriously, but probably after you loaded my comment. My bad.

Everyone is making this same joke now. “They’re going to tariff my imports now!” “My PR got flagged for DEI because they thought ‘#include dr_libs’ was about hiring communist physicians.” “If I import pandas do I have to pay 145% more now?” Jeez. Enough already. /s

Why can’t anyone tell an original joke anymore?! Like a steak joke. You almost never hear someone tell a good joke about steaks. It really is a rare medium well done.

Really went downhill after volume 3. You hope that they’ll get back on course by volume 6 at least, but alas.

Not if it is filled to the brim with 3 TB of porn

Horseshit. Computers aren’t tools for a software engineer. Computers are tools to an administrator, an accountant. Computers are the sandbox you are building castles in as a software engineer. If you don’t understand the system upon which you build, its abilities and features, its limitations, it’s dependencies, you are going to make some stupid mistakes.

You need to understand discrete mathematics as a consequence of computer computation. You need to understand parallel processing and threading for muli-core processors. You need to understand networking, package management, security vulnerabilities, etc. from different architectures and protocols. And it ALWAYS helps to understand the very basics of a computer’s functioning, from hardware, CPU architecture, machine code, assembly/low level programming, memory management, etc.

print('Hello, World!) is day one shit for a reason. Programming language and logic is the basics. The real expertise comes from your 3rd and 4th year materials. Databases, architecture, theory of computation, discrete mathematics, networking, operating systems, compilers, etc.

My CS degree had a hardware/IT support class, but A) it was entirely simulation based. We never touched any actual hardware. We “built” PC’s or identified physical issues in 3d sim software, set up RAID arrays in software, etc. B) it was super hand holdy and you only ever go over a problem once, so nothing on the class has stuck. I know much more from having built, troubleshot and maintained my own computers and network than I ever learned from that class, then learned more by doing in an actual IT support position before becoming an engineer.

This shit sounds like when your mom tells you that the Facebook printed out her bank statement on the fax machine. I’m not smart enough to even guess how you did something dumb enough to make that happen.

How bad are you at writing queries? How does your hard drive overheat even under 100% load? Do you have it smothered under a blanket? Did you crack it up and expose it to cheeto dust? What does running a query on your, presumably, remote database even have to do with your harddrive in the first place? Are you trying to copy the entire database locally to a laptop? Do you know how to tie your shoes yet, or are you still on the velcro?

I guess I’m an awesome nerd!
