Nobody want to be seen talking to a guy wearing socks with sandals.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 months ago (2 children)

The haters will hate until they try it themselves and learn thats its peak foot comfort.

Barefoot gang would like a word.

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

When its warm enough i agree

People who didn’t grow up in the pacific NW:

I’d wear socks and sandals before starting an index at 1

You have obviously never been to the Czech Republic

Or the Midwest United States during pumpkin spice season

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

Or to any woung people from 2000 onwards. To them, specifically white socks with slip-in sandals is a perfectly good choice of footwear!

Just to be clear, the problem is actually not that the guy was being boring but that he was a monster.

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

I think actually it's because he's not himself.

[–] errer 23 points 2 months ago

Like Matlab would give a fuck about anyone’s feelings

[–] jaggedrobotpubes 17 points 2 months ago

It was the footwear that was the issue.

This is the first time that I see this meme and I'm on the friend group B side, now I know how it feels.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

Need more fRiends

[–] eran_morad 10 points 2 months ago

It’s like u want fencepost errors.

[–] apocalypticat 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

If they're using MATLAB, wouldn't the index start at 1?

Group A starts indexing at 1. Group B at 0.

To me, the second layer of the joke is that the choice of starting number is significant enough that the author considers it to be two distinct personalities!

Mathematicians and computer scientists are natural enemies.

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

Like mathematicians and physicists.

[–] apocalypticat 1 points 2 months ago

Yeah this joke goes much deeper than I thought when I first commented.

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

Arrays start at zero, just like floors on a building

[–] FourThirteen 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hi, what is this meme format called?

[–] toynbee 4 points 2 months ago

I can barely maintain one personality ... Maybe that's why I don't get invited to any parties.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I love that friend group A is a gradient.

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

It's the logo of the Matlab software.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I'm with that guy. C was a mistake

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Blasphemy!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hate to break it to you, but almost every language uses 0-based indexing.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Yes, popularized by C
