Alright. The real entertainment value here won’t be the post itself, because it’s acutely serious social critique wrapped in a meme format.

So I’m gonna keep refreshing the post while sorting by “controversial” as I wait for the real show. 🍿

It’s probably all the vibe coding they do internally nowadays

They were mine. People rice their DEs, which I don’t care much about tbh… but I rice my shell even more obsessively.

Fish was amazing when I first discovered it, but I found it had too many problems for me to effectively use it. Having to adapt existing bash/zsh scripts was a major problem for me.

So I went the other way around and managed to get all of the Fish features I wanted working under zsh using atuin, starship, and other misc. oh-my-zsh plugins to fill the gaps.

Best part: I used a git-controlled home-manager setup to do it so I can activate my entire environment on a fresh machine/server in minutes after I clone it.

I think the last line is.

Liar. You also invented abominations like that mite cheese shit. Wie schrecklich!

Edit : and here’s an explicit /s for the ones without a German-adjacent sense of humour.

If you’re not gluten-intolerant, you’ll be surprised to know how many things they put flour into. It’s so ubiquitous to the human diet you can find it in virtually everything across all kinds of cuisine.

This scenario was basically my life’s story and I had to do this every time I went to restaurant back then. Thankfully I’m no longer gluten-sensitive.

P.S. Even factory-made plain potato chips aren’t safe. (Check the labels very carefully!)

Definitely! And the reason is obvious.

You think this is funny, but a codebase I once inherited did exactly this. Up until that point in my life, I never imagined I’d ever have such a violent urge to strangle someone.

Bonus: the system had two types of accounts for signups: one for employers and one for employees. Naturally, it would set the role of the created account during the signup process, but the issue was that anyone could submit a signup request with a custom payload and set themselves as the third account type: administrator.

Bonus #2: during a self-update request (avatar change, etc), users were able to change their own IDs in the database.

It was 100% vibe-coded by two imbeciles in two months. We had to rebuild 80% of that codebase.

Nah, you’re thinking of orichalcum, an orgasm is the philosophical position that states that the universe and its various parts ought to be considered alive and naturally ordered

Writing tests too. My recommendation to everyone interested in vibe coding who asks me is to instruct the AI to write the tests before the implementation.

I was having a shitty day and now I feel appreciated. Thank you.

Isn’t this basically the banana cultivation problem of computing? Linux has pretty good genetic diversity with mutations and speciation happening on the regular, MacOS doesn’t have that variety, but is a genetically engineered abomination that’s regularly gene-edited to patch problems out.

As for Windows, I’d say it’s the Cavendish banana of operating systems.

They’re recommending a meme-distro in a serious thread without making it clear that it’s a joke.

In this case someone might read their comment and follow their advice, thus ending up with Nyarch as their first distro. In the future, when they run into problems, they’ll have trouble finding support because it doesn’t have a massive knowledge-base or the support of a big community behind it like all the mainstream distros do.

It might be an obvious joke to a Linux user, but a total Linux newbie might get confused or not even recognise it as such. If this comment was posted in /c/linuxmemes or something I wouldn’t say anything, but it is not.

Ayoo ayoooo

I will save this picture because I think it’s important and will look at it while scrolling my phone a couple of years from now and wonder why I never used it all that time.

Definitely stealing this

Is this a serious comment? Because I don’t see an /s

Egyptian money (new variants). The 20 pounds are green, the 10 pounds are red, and the gold-ish coins are 50 pennies each.

The ones with the silver rim under the paper currency are whole pounds.

I once made a script to delete .o, .lib, and .so files from my huge dev folder to free up space on my home partition.

It did not go as planned.
