stringly-typed
"100%"yeah that tracks.
Calls a static method on the OldMan class instead of the instance of oldMan that is actually dying.
Tonight's story: Every man older than OldMan.getMinimumAge() has been in perfect *unchanging* health for the last few months‽ To find out why, stay tuned! Our experts chime in to help you understand....But then they really have no idea and try to convince you it’s from some stupid diet trick fed to them by a sponsor.
That’s an instance property
Is this some .NET convention that references to instances start with capital letters?
Yeah, properties (like a field but with a getter and/or setter method, may or may not be backed by a field) are PascalCase
str(float("100.0")) + "%"
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
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.
Smells like JavaScript.
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
They use a look-up table with every value from 0% to 100%
Floating points included for thoroughness!

Also putting
sudoin front of what looks like Java code not shell.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
If it’s a numeric 100, it’s 100%.
absolute lunacy
Absolute (cm)
adding one
0:
100%, automatically changes unit to %
(Word table properties)
Oldman.setHealth(“dicktits”); //normalize pls
Oldman.setHealth(“-100±1%”); //make percentage pls
Oldman.setHealth(0.0); //it is subunitary, but undefined behavior - will it access the ‘numeric value’ overload, or the ‘subunitary numeric value’ overload?
Don’t write your own code just yet.
Oldman.setHealth(“dicktits”); //normalize pls
0Oldman.setHealth(“-100±1%”); //make percentage pls
Reject operations.
Use absolute number to remove the minus.
Math.abs()Oldman.setHealth(0.0); //it is subunitary, but undefined behavior - will it access the ‘numeric value’ overload, or the ‘subunitary numeric value’ overload?
Same result either way, so whatever if branch is first.
Understand the purpose. If you want to kill the old man with
0, then there’s no point to leaving it as 0.9%, understand the non-linear characteristics of life and death.When you’re dealing with the low level functions, sure, you can keep it simple. When you’re reaching the surface of user input, you’re either going to waste time with validation and error reporting, or you’re going to waste time with interfaces that can handle more shit without complaining. There’s no fool proof either way, but good luck pissing users off with endless docs.
Don’t write your own code just yet.
If your goal in programming is just to be a traffic cop between the user input and the database, all you’re doing is building a virtual bureaucracy, the kind that people really hate and is easily generated with coding tools. Or you’re just deferring the “smoothing out” burden to the UI developers.
"5%1 "
…ends with. And there are more ways to parse.
sudo rm /heart/arteries/**/clotPlease forgive my ignorance. What does ** do?
Acts as a wildcard for any directories that exist between arteries and clot.
TIL!
It’s a glob pattern (edit: tried to find a source that actually showed
**in use).Had to look this up as well. Its not rm specific:
* is a simple, non-recursive wildcard representing zero or more characters which you can use for paths and file names. ** is a recursive wildcard that can only be used with paths, not file names.

You are not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.Can he also fix alzheimer’s by hunting down memory leaks.
👏🤝
“Wait! We need to get the user story before we start working on a solution!”
The holistic approach
sudo apt-get AED
sudo pacman -S new-heart
Top-tier endangerment bait lmao
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.
I wish there was a last panel of the old guy getting revived, I think it would be funny
Is that Noel Fielding?
HeLlOoOoO, wHaT nOw? It’S a Do Or DiE sItUaTiOn, HuRrY!
bash: sudo: command not foundAfter all, we don’t know that he has it installed, especially if he’s running a really old distro.
Have you tried magic, like Kadorto?:-)
