And a decade or so ago it was LOLCODE that had me mildly concerned for the wellbeing of my peers.
For some reason, this just sparked an ancient memory of the Geek Code, which was a sort of signature block you could append to your emails and online bios to show off how much of a geek you were in the geekiest fashion possible.
Goddamn I’m old.
Wow, hadn’t thought of that thing in ages. Now all we need is for B1FF to bring back ASCII sword signatures.
Remember it spawning a bunch of copycats? For a while every community had their own code block. I wrote one for a usenet group i was in at the time.
alt.sysadmin and alt.sysadmin.recovery both had em iirc…
😂
That’s way better than my emoji based programming language.
I’m not so sure. Send a link.

I will help you make this happen.
Sure! It doesn’t do anything yet, I just have a text file with how I’m intending to architect it.
It quite literally started
twofour (edit: I can’t keep track of time) days ago.I’ll configure a repo, stick this in a file, and push it. I’ll reply with another comment so you (and others) can look it up.
I’ve come up with some crazy stuff. Instead of something like “class” to indicate a class, it’s
🏫 Followed by the emoji name of the class like 🖼️📁. So it will need to be able to handle operators in the name it’s amazingly gross! Properties and methods will also be emoji names, like to get the 🖼️📁 “File Name” it would be 📁💳.
I was kind of being sarcastic. I haven’t written a compiler since I rode my dinosaur to college. Still it’s a funny idea. Could probably do it in C using a bunch of pound defines.
I was thinking Rust, but that works too.
Because then I could call the Language Spoons.
It would as uncomfortable to use as it is to watch Rusty Spoons
play_stupid_games { // ... } win_stupid_prizes(thePrize) { // ... }I always thought it was “prizes”
It is.

Have you seen eggs lately, though?
Thx and sorry. My spelling skills are bad.
I’d take that
yeetinstead ofreturn…This is a better argument to adopt Rust than memory safety or even sane package management.
ratiosI need this and I’m an elder millenialRatio is when your comment receives less upvotes than my reply, you get ratioed.
I know! (Jumpin’ Jehosaphat!, I’m no boomer!) 🤭
Ah, yes. A private method for working on a public field.
Ah but maybe the vibe is a
lowkey periodwe can’t be sure
It’s so painfully good.
This was by far the best way to explain current slang.
I got all of it No TeaBig “you damn kids and your phones” vibes from this
Yes, and? Get off my lawn!
Well. I think I’m officially out of touch with the newest generations slang terms. I only understood about half of that.
I have many gray hairs, but here’s what I know.
-
Highkey and lowkey - obvious and subtle.
-
fax is “facts” - true. Often in the sense of agreement.
-
Fuck around and find out - do something risky and reap the consequences
-
It’s giving - how it makes you feel, or what it reminds you of.
-
Cap and no cap - lying and telling the truth.
-
Big yikes - bad, especially cringey.
-
Tea - (n) gossip. (v) “spill the tea”
-
Shoutout - give credit to someone. I don’t think this one makes much sense here.
-
Yap - talk, especially too much or unnecessarily.
-
Yeet - throw, often without careful aim. (Unlike “Kobe”, which is a throw with aim)
You missed
- Rizz = charisma
- vibe check = Vibe is kinda like someone’s aura or energy. So to check their vibe is to call them out on it.
Also got many grey hairs but I like to know what people mean and language evolves. Our generation did it too you get me blud.
Thanks for the catch, I thought I got all of them. Stay skibidi and not Ohio, my friend.
No problem. Ohio is a new one for me?
There was meme on titkok, someone says “only in Ohio” when something weird, impossible, unbelievable or some stupid bizarre shit happens.
Similar to Florida?
Florida is basically the unofficial US Capitol now, so it would be confusing and ambiguous to have it associated with the traditional forms of unexpected insanity. Now it’s going to be an entirely new kind of unexpected insanity, so Ohio has been selected to represent the old kind of unexpected insanity that Florida used to represent.
It’s recognized by the yoots as the worst state, so being Ohio is bad!
It’s worse than “mid”, which is meh.

Conflating us again with iPad kids?
Just wait till they get Lemmy on their iPads
Should else be big_yikes? That seems situational to me.
It’s actually a comment on the performance loss incurred from a likely failed branch prediction.
Too many capital letters in the gen z version.
That’s what we Do.
I’ve seen forms of this joke quite a lot in the last few years, and it never fails to make me laugh.
