WHY IS THE HEALTH INPUT PARAMETER A GODDAMN STRING???
Why are you passing ‘%’ inside said goddamn string?!?! Not to mention the static reference instead of the actual instance.
Shame on you
Also putting
sudoin front of what looks like Java code not shell.OldMan.setHealth(“Robert’); DROP TABLE Students;–”)
Finally someone with some wisdom
I guess its just a reminder that getting a PhD is often more about dedication than it is about practical knowledge.
Because the meme wasn’t made by someone with a doctorate in CS or even a bachelor’s.
It’s not his fault the world is made this way.
He just has to follow it or else that man dies.
Found the legacy support person
Smells like JavaScript.
They use a look-up table with every value from 0% to 100%
Floating points included for thoroughness!

Honestly, if someone were to try to safe my life. And I find out he uses a string as a parameter to do so. Just let me die right there.
The high level setter function should be made to handle both string and numeric values.
If it contains “%” it’s a percentage value.
If it’s a string without a “%” it’s an absolute value and needs to be normalized.
If it’s a numeric value, it’s an absolute value.
If it’s a numeric 100, it’s 100%.
If it’s a subunitary numeric value, it’s a percentage.
yeah I’m gonna go ahead and reject your PR, please change this function to accept a decimal value between 0 and 1
Ironically, the worst thing I ever saw a coworker do was to change a function that accepted an Integer value between 0 and 32767 to one that accepted a Float between 0.0 and 1.0. Perfectly sensible change except that it resulted in a 120 mph knuckleball fired a foot above a 10 year old kid’s head, followed by a fist fight between the client and my boss.
That sounds like something that should have been caught by QA, integration tests or unit tests long before it was launching balls at ten year olds.
Yes, testing the new Little League control module on a field full of Little Leaguers was not the best plan.
What is a little league control module?
You push a button and it makes Little Leaguers do whatever you tell them to do. Very potent, should never be misused.
The Big League Control Modules are called contracts.
yeah every engineer knows you gotta set KidHeadKnuckleballClearance waaay higher than that, it’s compsci 101
If it’s a numeric 100, it’s 100%.
absolute lunacy
Absolute (cm)
adding one
0:
100%, automatically changes unit to %
(Word table properties)
"5%1 "
…ends with. And there are more ways to parse.
Goddamn, the joke gets worse the more I inspect each panel.
XKCD 149 but worse.
The font changes like 3 times 👌
They are a doctor of computer science, not a doctor of design. You need a design phd to pick correct fonts.
Did he just give every old man perfect health?!
no it says OldMan not OldMen
Right but is it every
OldMan?He’s only working on that particular old man’s OS.
sudo apt-get AED
sudo pacman -S new-heart
See that’s the issue, he should have tried stopping the cardiac arrest process instead of just resetting the man to the beginning of it
Patient HP kept dropping to zero after resetting, but we don’t have budget to investigate why and this was supposed to be worth only 1 story point, so we set up a microservice that runs a job every 200ms to set HP back to 100. So long as nothing shuts down the service, patient should be fine. Marking as Done.
Whoops, stopped the lungs process instead of the cardiac arrest process.
Actually you really want to restart the heart service, right?
sudo systemd restart heartDepends on who’s working the terminal, nano vs vim difference
Bash-Java
I wish there was a last panel of the old guy getting revived, I think it would be funny
Is that Noel Fielding?
That command syntax looks kind of like how Skyrim’s scripting console works, and gods help us if reality is a Bethesda game! (Kind of, if you added string-parsing based overloads and, for some reason, a command-syntax sudo keyword.
Need something?
btw I use Arch
MD =/= PHD
MD = Doctor
PHD = not a doctor.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_(title)
As a noun yeah it’s more common in the western world to refer to medical doctors. But its origin is that of teachers, not medical practitioners.
