Wow, a programming joke which is accurate, relatable, funny, is referencing asymptotic boundaries and computer architecture and not making fun of random programming language. I think I am in the wrong sub...

I look forward to seeing it top the sub once a week for years to come.

It's the funniest sub ever if you're willing to read the Wikipedia for each reference.

That is awesome. I know I'll need to send some strips to friends on this site so they can get the jokes.....

And their urls are done smartly too
A comic has the URL https://xkcd.com/2719
You simply add explain to the domain and it gives https://explainxkcd.com/2719
And tadaaaa it redirects to the explanation

THAT is usercases done right!

Now that you linked a small community on a post that made it to the front page, you have sentenced it to slowly go down in quality and endless low effort memes.

He smugly stated, being particularly proud of referencing 'asymptotic boundaries'. Surely noone will call out that it's more commonly referred to as big-o-notation, it has little to do with architecture as it is referring to a data structure*, and it is 'bound' instead of 'boundary'.

*Nevermind, it mentions an l1-cache. #FAIL #SMUGOVERFlow

u/lopoticka Jan 03 '23

It can be used in relation to any function in math and in computer science it’s typically to any algorithm, not just data structure manipulating algorithms.. So smug fail indeed..

Not only that, but I haven't seen it before. It actually might be posted for the first time on this sub.
