The entire meme is about web-dev. That split between backend and frontend isn’t anywhere else. (And is stupid for the web too, but well, that’s what web-dev do.)

maybe that’s all the customer needs

The food truck is often better than the restaurant experience in every dimension… The same is valid for the app analogies.

How many people worked on it is not a dimension that counts.

It’s a nicer syntax for inline styles.

If you want to use inline styles everywhere, it’s great.

I guess some people write code, and some people also read and maintain it.

but whatever chemicals they add to these things makes just 1 small burger feel like you overate.

That’s usually a feature of good food. I agree that it’s odd that a hamburger would be that way, but usually what causes that is fiber.

Yeah:

parseInt("a") -> NoT a NuMbEr

The Javascript literal interpretation of NaN never fails to amuse me.

I don’t think the US military complex consider that “less undesirable” than basically any other possible outcome.

… well, it may be better in their minds than an asteroid destroying Earth before they can cash-out. Maybe. I’m not sure about this one…

They just had the largest protest in their history, have a handful of cities under military intervention to stop the protests, and are close to elect somebody that promises to fight against the federal government as mayor of their largest city.

What exactly do you expect them to do?

So, they wished the increased spending to the monkey paw and got exactly what they were wishing for: countries are cancelling orders of complex US equipment all over the world, and Europe is developing a military industry to compete with them.

I really doubt anybody will be happy about it, even after considering the size of the fees. And also, you have a very high estimation of the capacity of those people to notice they have to call you, I really doubt it’s deserved.

It’s from The Good Place. She isn’t a person, and she isn’t a computer either.

No one can cut off the US oil supply.

Well, if the US invests on being able to use its own oil without mixing with anything else, the can become true.

Not to mention they could simply seize oil haulers for themselves with their navy.

A few times, yeah. The world won’t react well to the US specializing into constant piracy.

Hum… I’d put good odds in they getting some now.

How many more of these stories need to come out before us around the rest of the world stop treating the United States like a democracy?

What do you mean by “treating like a democracy”? What countries have you seen treating the US in high regards recently? Or, what do you want to change?

Being able to know things was good though. I hope scientific articles last a while longer.

The restaurant has exactly the average quality of everybody that cooks.

Not of restaurant chefs or people good at cooking. Everybody that cooks.

Some declarations terminate on the name, other declarations go one requiring more tokens. In C, the only thing that differentiates them is the type.

Parenthesis in particular are completely ambiguous. But asterisks and square brackets also create problems.

Good, now invent a keyword for variables you don’t want to declare the type. And now that you have a mix of keywords and identifiers on the same place, you can never update your language again.

Also, make the function declarations not use a keyword too, so you get the full C-style madness of code that changes meaning depending on what libraries you import.
