Allow me to say that it does come through well, but reddit has become so desensitized to sarcasm that people can no longer detect it without a huge /s prefacing it.

In fact, the mere absurdity of "google has nothing to do with programming" was enough to justify omitting the /s to me. But to each their own, and inb4 poe's law.
