Jennifer is a lesbian. Her wife, now husband, who she’s proudly supportive of, is FtM, with 3 previous children that Jennifer adopted. Jennifer has never had penetrative sex with a man.

Found the senior dev

… checks out.

interpreter programming language

[–] SpicyKetchup@lemmy.world -4 points 1 year ago

This would make her not a lesbian after her husband transitioned.

artificial insemination; beard marriage, loves her husband platonically. I am a JS dev.

[–] Kraivo@lemmy.world 32 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Lesbian, in marriage with another lesbian and adopted 3 kids. Still virgin.

[–] where_am_i@sh.itjust.works 26 points 1 year ago

Her partner is actually a woman, but dynamic type casts made her write "husband".

[–] unreachable@lemmy.my.id 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

and by kids, she means their cats and/or dogs

[–] amanaftermidnight@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah yes, the fursons and furdaughters.

[–] colorado@programming.dev 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We prefer the gender neutral fur baby in this household.

[–] pastaq@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

That's ageist.

I was thinking they were his kids from the previous marriage, though artificial insemination works just as well!

I've had a JavaScript certification for over a decade now and I think I hate you.

[–] Blamemeta@lemm.ee 22 points 1 year ago

Simple. Malformed data from.a bad actor. Always sanity check your shit.

[–] Coreidan@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you have that much difficulty with JavaScript then it’s likely you’ll suffer with any language.

[–] MakeAvoy@programming.dev 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Except strict equality, that's a JavaScript only problem. Imagine thinking "0" should be falsy in comparison due to string literal evaluation, but truthy with logical not applied based on non-empty string. Thus !"0"=="0" is true. They couldn't just throw away == and start over nooooo let's add === . Utter madness

Browser compatibility. Design flaws can't easily be fixed like how other languages can just switch to a new major version and introduce breaking changes. ES must keep backwards compatibility so has had to do more additive changes than replacing behavior altogether so that older web pages pages don't break.

Meanwhile google is about to break the internet with html drm

[–] JonEFive@midwest.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Strict vs loose equality has gotten me so many times, but I can sort of see why they did it. The problem you mention with integers 0 & 1 is a major annoyance though. Like it is fairly common to check whether a variable is populated by using if (variable) {} - if the variable happens to be an integer, and that integer happens to be 0, loose quality will reflect that as false.

But on the other side, there have been plenty of occasions where I'm expecting a boolean to come from somewhere and instead the data is passed as a text string. "true" == true but "true" !== true

[–] MakeAvoy@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Lua does intrinsic evaluation of strings that i'd argue is not nearly as crazy. I get the value of it since half of interpreted languages it just churning through strings. But I also don't recommend any large codebase ever use JS's == or string coercion because it can go against expectations. This graph argues in JS's favor but comparison is a little more crazy https://algassert.com/visualization/2014/03/27/Better-JS-Equality-Table.html

!NaN

(Translation: I agree)

Any senior developer who says that should instantly get a demotion to intern.

[–] Moc@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

There are two kinds of simple

  • Simple to learn to use
  • Simple to understand, and use at a complex level.

JavaScript is the first, but definitely not the second.

[–] HarkMahlberg@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Which part? Saying that it's simple, or making fun of saying that it's simple?

[–] ImpossibleRubiksCube@programming.dev 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We can do both. This is clearly not a laughing matter. 🤨😤🚬🔨🐖

[–] HarkMahlberg@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Haha, ok I didn't see which community this was posted in.

Followed by a public beating.

And I thought kotlin was crazy with whatever (modifier: Modifier = Modifier) means to make it happy
