My DNA is a sexually transmitted disease

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 months ago

I'm gonna have to start vetting my partners better, I don't want to catch Webdev.

1 in 10 Americans think rust is a good thing.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 months ago

It's cool. Those with HTML are likely never to have sex anyway.

My kid is learning HTML so… maybe?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

There is nothing sexual about it I'm afraid.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Cue the Republicans trying to ban HTML from our Internet to protect the kids. Yeah, you do that...

Close: JS is a disease.

I disagree. USB is superior.
If you are talking about physical size however, then yeah. USA is bigger than a single USB.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Which is larger though, USA or all the USBs in the world?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Probably still USA.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

luckily regarding hardware, smaller is often better

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Oh I get it, it’s programmer humor because HTML was mentioned.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I thought it was because STDS were?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I think most programmers are safe from STDs.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

std::C++ std::programmers std::are std::not.

2 out of 10 Americans believe anything off a screenshot.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

7/10 Americans think a photo and a screenshot are the same thing.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 6 months ago (6 children)

And 8 in 10 Americans think HTML is a programming language.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago (2 children)

https://html-lang.org/

I mean, technically it’s the other 2 out of 10 that are wrong…🙃

HTML, the programming language, is a practical, turing-complete[1], stack-based programming language based on HTML, the markup language. It uses elements defined in HTML, the markup language, in order to do computations.

https://html-lang.org/

Yo, dawg, I heard you like HTML, so I put HTML in your HTML so you could HTML while you HTML

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Ever heard of HTMX?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago (2 children)

I will die on the hill that HTML should be treated like a programming language.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

I absolutely agree, and luckily I think it mostly is treated as a programming language. It's just a technicality that makes for a great joke.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

The hyper text markup language programming language?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Boomer programmer humor

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (2 children)

They're wrong too, although less-so.

Also, what about that last American?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

The last American knows it's a markup language.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

The last one knows it's not a programming language and is annoyingly vocal about it.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

Mom, look! I'm a statistic!

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 months ago (3 children)

And 5 in 10 Americans think you can parse it with regular expressions.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You can parse anything with regex, if you’re willing to give up your soul for it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Show me the regex for the language L = {a^n b^n | n in N}
