I don’t make the rules…. but I have observed far too often for it to be coincidence that the more brilliant a type theorist is, the more likely it will be that they identify as 🏳️⚧️ or 🏳️🌈.
Counterpoint: I used to be a computer scientist in obscure languages, I’m as cis as they come, and I’ve always been absolutely average. Wait that’s not a counterpoint at all
Maybe taking estrogen will elevate your rank.
Would this be considered doping?
I mean, you’re gonna be dope as hell!
Great now conservatives will complain about trans people in programming competitions too!
You’ve convinced me we need to start marketing HRT as performance enhancing drugs for programmers. Maybe that would make corporate America support trans healthcare
Counterpoint: I am a trans woman in CS and I am incompetent
Maybe you just have imposter syndrome: you think you work in CS but you actually work in retail.
That’s…not…
That’s not very sus? Well I disagree, and BTW I saw you in the engine room, what were you doing? Maybe you’re the one with impostor syndrome
Tbf I had a friend who worked in CS but was actually a mechanic. He just fixed the systems so much they would pay him a diff to go work at other shops computers.
Have you put on the regulation socks? They must be white with pink or baby blue stripes.
Holy shit! I actually never tried a good pair of programing socks !
Same! :)
I think that would be a contrapositive, as the truth table is the same; unlike a converse or an inverse where the truth tables would be opposite
But we’re also working with inductive logic here, so maybe truth tables aren’t the right tool to use anyway
type theorist?
People who use templates and types to achieve absurd outcomes that just work, maybe?
I have seen a few haskell magic.
Dunno about type theory per se but I visited a Haskell-based company a while back, and they said 50% of the women they interviewed were trans. Not sure of the cause and effect relationship. I know of several male-at-the-time programmers who got interested in Haskell and then transitioned later.
They’re putting something in the Haskell that’s turning the coders trans! (jk)
You should see what Visual Basic used to do to people.
I know VB from my early days as something like Mikrosofts take on Python. But not 99% sure anymore.
Eh, it was just BASIC combined with the best (by far) visual forms editor available at the time.
VB was probably triggering domestic disputes.
Straight men are into OCaml, did you not hear yet?
Tell me what programming languages straight women like, because that’s what I need to study!
You could say that type theorists are isomorphic to LGBT.
What about Gödel, Frege, Cantor, and the other great philosophers-mathematicians of the 20th century?
They grew up in an oppressed environment and couldn’t develop their own personal preferences (what did I just write?)
what about alan turing?
What about them? Listing a few brilliant straight people doesn’t negate the other commenter’s claim.
Programmers used to be so hostile to women that they needed to transition (evolve) to refill the niche.
Makes sense, now where do furries fit into that…?
Accommodation for misanthropes.
Real answer is that autism leads to self isolation which naturally also leads into tech, and autistic individuals are more likely to come out as trans if they are because theyre already ostracized. Furry communities also highly appeal to autistic individuals because its a literal mask that lets you redesign yourself either online or in person with a fursuit.
Source: I am an autistic trans furry who is also a software dev :3
Unix beard was just an evolutionary middle step between.
that is not how a confidence interval… never mind.
The confidence interval is 1% - 199%
I had to look it up, DLC is downloadable content.
Big if true
come the fuck on
string bigIfTrue(Boolean size) { string toAssign = ''; if (size == true) { toAssign = 'big'; } else { toAssign = 'small'; } return toAssign; }Bloat. Nobody asked for else.
Or assignment. Just return.
true ? 'big' : '';My beloved
Where’s your interface and factory?
This actually gets loaded as a WASM module by a server less API service when a user ask if true return big
hey, this is for fun and pseudocode.
Saved
String bigIfTrue(Boolean size) { if (size == true){ return "big" } return "small"; }
That is indeed a big one!
Claire’s (likely) a good programmer, knows there’s always edge cases and is super pedantic.
Source please! I want this to be true.
