I wish there was a last panel of the old guy getting revived, I think it would be funny
Did he just give every old man perfect health?!
no it says OldMan not OldMen
Right but is it every
OldMan?
Have you tried magic, like Kadorto?:-)
Just turn him off and on again.
HeLlOoOoO, wHaT nOw? It’S a Do Or DiE sItUaTiOn, HuRrY!
See that’s the issue, he should have tried stopping the cardiac arrest process instead of just resetting the man to the beginning of it
Whoops, stopped the lungs process instead of the cardiac arrest process.
Actually you really want to restart the heart service, right?
sudo systemd restart heartPatient HP kept dropping to zero after resetting, but we don’t have budget to investigate why and this was supposed to be worth only 1 story point, so we set up a microservice that runs a job every 200ms to set HP back to 100. So long as nothing shuts down the service, patient should be fine. Marking as Done.
Goddamn, the joke gets worse the more I inspect each panel.
The font changes like 3 times 👌
They are a doctor of computer science, not a doctor of design. You need a design phd to pick correct fonts.
XKCD 149 but worse.
Link for the lazy.
Thank you very much!
btw I use Arch
“Wait! We need to get the user story before we start working on a solution!”
The holistic approach
bash: sudo: command not foundAfter all, we don’t know that he has it installed, especially if he’s running a really old distro.
You are not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.WHY IS THE HEALTH INPUT PARAMETER A GODDAMN STRING???
Why are you passing ‘%’ inside said goddamn string?!?! Not to mention the static reference instead of the actual instance.
Shame on you
The high level setter function should be made to handle both string and numeric values.
If it contains “%” it’s a percentage value.
If it’s a string without a “%” it’s an absolute value and needs to be normalized.
If it’s a numeric value, it’s an absolute value.
If it’s a numeric 100, it’s 100%.
If it’s a subunitary numeric value, it’s a percentage.
If it’s a numeric 100, it’s 100%.
absolute lunacy
Absolute (cm)
adding one
0:
100%, automatically changes unit to %
(Word table properties)
"5%1 "
yeah I’m gonna go ahead and reject your PR, please change this function to accept a decimal value between 0 and 1
Ironically, the worst thing I ever saw a coworker do was to change a function that accepted an Integer value between 0 and 32767 to one that accepted a Float between 0.0 and 1.0. Perfectly sensible change except that it resulted in a 120 mph knuckleball fired a foot above a 10 year old kid’s head, followed by a fist fight between the client and my boss.
That sounds like something that should have been caught by QA, integration tests or unit tests long before it was launching balls at ten year olds.
Yes, testing the new Little League control module on a field full of Little Leaguers was not the best plan.
What is a little league control module?
You push a button and it makes Little Leaguers do whatever you tell them to do. Very potent, should never be misused.
yeah every engineer knows you gotta set KidHeadKnuckleballClearance waaay higher than that, it’s compsci 101
Oldman.setHealth(“dicktits”); //normalize pls
Oldman.setHealth(“-100±1%”); //make percentage pls
Oldman.setHealth(0.0); //it is subunitary, but undefined behavior - will it access the ‘numeric value’ overload, or the ‘subunitary numeric value’ overload?
Don’t write your own code just yet.
Oldman.setHealth(“dicktits”); //normalize pls
0Oldman.setHealth(“-100±1%”); //make percentage pls
Reject operations.
Use absolute number to remove the minus.
Math.abs()Oldman.setHealth(0.0); //it is subunitary, but undefined behavior - will it access the ‘numeric value’ overload, or the ‘subunitary numeric value’ overload?
Same result either way, so whatever if branch is first.
Understand the purpose. If you want to kill the old man with
0, then there’s no point to leaving it as 0.9%, understand the non-linear characteristics of life and death.When you’re dealing with the low level functions, sure, you can keep it simple. When you’re reaching the surface of user input, you’re either going to waste time with validation and error reporting, or you’re going to waste time with interfaces that can handle more shit without complaining. There’s no fool proof either way, but good luck pissing users off with endless docs.
Don’t write your own code just yet.
If your goal in programming is just to be a traffic cop between the user input and the database, all you’re doing is building a virtual bureaucracy, the kind that people really hate and is easily generated with coding tools. Or you’re just deferring the “smoothing out” burden to the UI developers.
Also putting
sudoin front of what looks like Java code not shell.Smells like JavaScript.
They use a look-up table with every value from 0% to 100%
Floating points included for thoroughness!
I guess its just a reminder that getting a PhD is often more about dedication than it is about practical knowledge.
OldMan.setHealth(“Robert’); DROP TABLE Students;–”)
Finally someone with some wisdom
Honestly, if someone were to try to safe my life. And I find out he uses a string as a parameter to do so. Just let me die right there.
It’s not his fault the world is made this way.
He just has to follow it or else that man dies.
Found the legacy support person
Because the meme wasn’t made by someone with a doctorate in CS or even a bachelor’s.
Yeah, in Ren’py games usually it’s character_health=100 or something.
Yes absolutely, the parameter even if not in a strongly typed language should be a specific number and the unit should be implied. Overload the method to support different units if necessary or provide a unit as an additional parameter instead of forcing the method to parse the string for any unit type hints that may or may not be there
Top-tier endangerment bait lmao
sudo rm /heart/arteries/**/clotVery important to not hit enter before clot.
That’s why you have backups.
Please forgive my ignorance. What does ** do?
Acts as a wildcard for any directories that exist between arteries and clot.
TIL!
But only in Bash and if settings match. It’s only reliable on your own shell, don’t use it in scripts.
It’s a glob pattern.
Had to look this up as well. Its not rm specific:
* is a simple, non-recursive wildcard representing zero or more characters which you can use for paths and file names. ** is a recursive wildcard that can only be used with paths, not file names.
Isn’t it
/dev/heart?I feel like if your body follows the Unix filesystem structure, you have a real problem.
Can I get one of them immutable bodies?
you wish to assimilate into the borg?
You are now a cygote
sudo apt-get AED
sudo pacman -S new-heart
