Welcome to Programmer Humor!
This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.

It's fun that it went: Mastodon (fediverse) --> Tumblr (non-fedi) --> Lemmy (Fedi)
Is the fediverse starting to get rolled into the mainstream content farm. Might help our cause and get more people on the bandwagon.
I saw an article posted on Facebook yesterday about the five guys burgers and fries price complaints, and it quoted word for word comments I saw on a thread here on Lemmy the day before that.
Yeah usually we just go from Tumblr to Fedi. This is kinda interesting.
Turns out the content holds the value, and the hosting platform is a mostly replaceable and interchangeable delivery mechanism. Who would've thunk?
I won't lie, but content like this is what I love on programmerhumor.
Also just use the (inferior) open source version of GUMBIES called GRUMBOSS. It's way better!
The recent regulation changes at the end of February kinda killed GRUMBOSS though.
LUMBIES is open source MIT and GPL3+
Just saying.
Yeah, but LUMBIES is missing catScratcher integration! That's a core feature for my use case and the dev has taken a (ridiculous IMO) proud moral stance against any sort of felidae-adjacent features
I am not 100% convinced that this is satire...
Gumbies isn't real... Right?
Wdym? Gumbies is a must-have for any competent Summit developer these days!
Give some JS dev about fifteen minutes
Gumbies isn't real, but if you can explain to me how CI/CL or github actions work using only their documentation I'm going to proverbially eat a hat.
using only their documentation
Wdym, are you expecting me to explain something using nothing at allβ½
This is really very relatable, some projects lack both clarity and documentation, and trying to make sense of internals from the examples is a mess of a process
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.
I'd say God isn't that cruel, but
Thanks everyone, I figured it out.
I experienced a new hell today
The whole of the documentation was in video format and you had to accept all cookies to play the videos
At least with GUMBIES not having documentation there is a wide thread of people asking questions on third party sites
This was legitimately part of the reason I went with Laminas instead of Laravel for a project. I really don't want critical documentation to be in video form.
By the end of the post chain, I could no longer tell if this was a joke or not.
I'm still just trying to figure out if GUMBIES is compatible with my ReverMax Turbo Encabulator model XYZZY in sinusoidal repleneration mode.
Wait a second... Is that a Mastodon screenshot on a Tumblr blog?!?
Quick! Screenshot it here and post it on Facebook! The cycle must continue!
Every time I want to do something, I have a look around the baffling ecosystem of frameworks and end up writing it from scratch because it's easier than wading through the bullshit.
You should release what you've written as a framework, that's what everyone else is doing.
<Insert XKCD standards comic here>
Now I understand where ChatGPT hallucinations come from.
tumblr will save us from the AI takeover
I fed this into chat gpt asking for documentation to add to the gibberish and confusion:

GUMBIES isn't real, it can't hurt me...
Oh honey, just because it's not real doesn't mean it can't hurt you. Just look up Roko's basilisk as an example.
ThomThumb:
@anarchywoofwoof I found some documentation that answers your question: https://www.deadlink.com/dontevenclick
anarchywoofwoof:
@ThomThumb Thanks, that's exactly what I needed, so glad to have the answer to my problem. I'll leave this up for anyone that has the same issue.

Does anyone have a way to fix this in the latest version? I've been looking all day but none of the answers I've found work.
Thr34dN3cr0 wrote (14:48 5/17/2019):
nvm figured it out.
Nolonger works with current api check out https://www.deadlink.com/dontevenclick#migrate for how to update
The GUMBIES page being one sentence per scroll scroll scroll is right on point for a fuckload of projects. Even the text feels like it was copy pasted from a real project
And that one line is something like "fixed issue where the nuclear bombs don't go off anymore", no mention as to how or why that was even a problem or how they fixed it.
If you're unsure about GUMBIES, you should take a look at this video.
Kubernetes homepage is the real life example of this.
There are innumerable examples.
My typical attitude is "I was fine without "latest fad" until now, I'll still be fine now that I still know nothing about it". And I forget about the whole thing. It'll probably vanish fifteen months later anyway.
As an aside, who even makes those caricatural, utterly content free websites, and then pats themselves on the back thinking that's a job well done? They've obviously put some amount of work into those things. Is the point to make it seem like it's a cool super secret society or what?
Man, I'm just chilling and relaxing after a week of SE work and this resonates with me very deeply
This makes me want to die
I just found out GUMBIES 7 isn't backwards compatible with GUMBIES 1.
And yes I know GUMBIES 1 was released in 2013, but still what the actual fuck!
I use Gorillas with Grandparents instead as the performance is much better. Do you know how bad Gumbies looks on your resume? It came out in 2022.

It's retro-encabulators, isn't it?

Ooooo, new programmer meme lore.
