I can’t not read this in Ron Swanson’s voice.
Jokes on you, the Fed has been running that bottom program for years.
I’m a senior dev and I’ll be honest: I’m not sure what I do.
You enchant rocks engraved with runes
Computer programmers are the wizards of the present.
There was a series of books in the '80s where a systems programmer gets pulled through a portal into your typical magical world, good vs evil, etc.
They subsequently look at the magical spells in use and realise they can apply Good Systems Programming Practices™ to it. And thus, with their knowledge of subroutines and parallel processing, they become a Pretty Good Magician™ as all the rest of the magicians basically have to construct their spells to execute in a linear fashion, and they’re off spawning recursive spells and generally causing havoc.
It’s quite a good allegory for modern times, where a select few build all the magic and the rest just have useful artefacts they use on a day to day basis with no idea how they work
That sounds very interesting, do you remember the name or the author?
OK. I guess it’s time to go start my rutabaga farm now.
Oh is that kinda like a raspberry or orange pi farm?
Sounds kinda RISCy in this economy…
Yeah, better use something that isn’t ARM
(In germany, arm means poor)
This is a butchered rip off of an actual joke.
I mean, that’s what a meme template is, yes.
-
this isn’t an image macro / meme template

this isn’t how the humor of a meme template works. This is the same joke, worse. This is just stealing a joke.
OP has played us for absolute fools
There’s literally a community somewhere here centered around versions of this template. I’ve seen it for a few things already.
I’ll let others be the judge of if you can steal a joke on the internet, or if they’re some kind of collective property. Maybe it’s worse now but TBH I didn’t get it the first time.

I take offense to the teapot joke. Leave the teapots out of it.
Tell that to Don Norman.
I think I had enough Internet for today.
Did the person writing this have a stroke?
They certainly do like to use the word “in” a lot.
“I’m writing a recursive method with threads to optimize the CPU usage in a 0.02%” THIS IS A NONSENSICAL STATEMENT MADE BY DERANGED PEOPLE
I mean this is correct though
Recursion makes it cheaper to run in the dev’s mind, but more expensive to run on the computer. Subroutines are always slower than a simple jump.
Recursion makes it cheaper to run in the dev’s mind, but more expensive to run on the computer.
Maybe for a Haskell programmer, divide-and-conquer algorithms, or walking trees. But for everything else, I’m skeptical of it being easier to understand than a stack data structure and a loop.
Dynamic programming: Heyyy…
Yeah, you have to be pretty deranged to mix multithreading and recursion together.
What scares me, is that this can really not be a joke
Except the teapot. The teapot is highly valuable.
But we had to program the computer for it to be able to do math in the first place?

Error: undefined reference ‘money’
Syntax Error, line 1: ‘moneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoney moneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoney moneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoney moneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoneymoney’ is not defined
All this computer stuff is a complete useless scam for sure.
while (true) { print money; }
Someone’s never heard of Bitcoin
if print-money == false then mine-bitcoin;
What’s the teapot a reference to?
It’s an in-joke in 3D modeling: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utah_teapot
I was aware of status code 418. The whole thing being a huge April Fools joke is amazing.
