As much as I’m still skeptical about “AI taking all of our jobs” anytime soon, interactions like these still blow my mind…

Crazy that you managed to snap one in their natural habitat.
I heard they are exceptionally rare these days.

Love the image of wheeds just popping up all over your garden where you don’t want them.
It’s a great metaphor for the “HEY, TRY THIS NEW THING!” shit microsoft pulls.

Additionally much software (and hardware even more) primarely targets windows as a platform. The way printers mostly “just work”™ on Linux still amazes me, because printer vendors have all the incentives to make their stuff work for the most used platform, which sadly isn’t Linux right now.

Love the Cave Johnson quote in the readme that just preempts any of those pesky “why” questions.

Yeah, I remember the first time I saw the :// thing I felt myself having a little design-gasm.
This doesn’t touch the same spot for me…

There’s some joke about pointers here that I’m not C++ savvy enough to make.
I’ll let you workshop it.

Absolutely not an expert or anything, but is it possible that the partition of your harddrive that you’re trying to install Debian on (hd0) is too small?

Yeah, I used to use filezilla and I’m not that old… Right? …Right?

Nice, but typo in the title. ;)

I was asking myself the same thing. This is a pathetic state of affairs… The only thing missing is that the google banner would now also acknowledge the Bing box and tell you specifically “don’t listen to the other popup!”.

Yeah, I’ve seen better strategic thinking…

Yes, if you reorder only the text and not the whole bubble it’s also correct. =)

In case you are serious: It’s probably not.
When you’re not careful with parallel processing / multithreading, you can run into something called a “race condition”, where results of parallel computations end up in the wrong order because some were finished faster than others.
The joke here is that whoever “programmed” this commic is bad at parallel progmming and got the bubbles in the wrong order because of that.
The image makes perfect sense if you read it in the order 3, 1, 2.

I mean I was just going to put them on my feet… That’s what they’re for, right? RIGHT?!
Oh god, now I don’t know either…
Nothing is certain!
Reality is starting to crumble!!!

Funny you should mention GitHub actions. It’s exactly one of those tools where I was like “this seems cool. I would like to use it, but I don’t even know what for…” and then when I tried to look into it some more I was just more confused than before.

Okay at least I know what to do with those.

I am not 100% convinced that this is satire…
Gumbies isn’t real… Right?

Quick! Screenshot it here and post it on Facebook! The cycle must continue!

Haha, okay that’s a great moment. Thank you for providing the link. I think every interviewee should have a David around the corner.
