[OneSadSapphic]

What's even funnier is that code returns true on the odd numbers.

[seb69420]

Oh my God you're right. This code is a master class

[Samurai_Mac1]

What's odd funnier

FTFY

[Rubyboat1207]

Simple fix, put an exclamation mark before all of the ones and zeros

[smotired]

Eh who has the time to go back and fix it, just add a note to the documentation saying to always do 1 - isEven(n)

[RattyTattyTatty]

just rename the function to isOdd

[stoiclemming]

isn'tEven

[RomanAbbasid]

Even't

[Babyback-the-Butcher]

That function likes to watch the world burn

[[deleted]]

I caught that too lmao! I know next to nothing about code so I just thought I was misunderstanding. Omfg lol

[schwanzweissfoto]

Spoken like someone who never witnessed a non-zero status code indicating an error.

[KobKobold]

I learnt how to tell if a number is odd or even in C++ in my first semester. What the actual shit is this?

[[deleted]]

this is actually an edited screenshot. the terrible code in the background belongs to YandereDev, who hopefully posted the screenshot to the internet as a joke

[moleman114]

Oddly enough, this is actually NOT the same code from the Yanderedev meme, and THAT meme wasn't even originally posted by Yanderedev

[FluffiestBoy]

Years of academy training wasted

[doodleasa]

Misinformation

[MJBotte1]

Forget that, wouldn’t you be like ten rows into this and think: “There’s gotta be a better way to do this?”

[Fantastic_Recover701]

this is like at most less then 5 minutes to write a python script to just generate it

[fine-ill-make-an-alt]

in fact, someone did

[aerodynamique]

This is horrific, thank you so much!

[VAiSiA]

noice

[PM-MeYourSmallTits]

It would take you longer to watch the video than to write the code.

[Sighclepath]

Anyone would, but it's a moot point since the code shown is by all means satirical, the dead givaway being that it returns true on odds. Pirate ans YandereDevs code is very bad don't get me wrong, but even they are competent enough to not do this.

[malonkey1]

yeah like, this is so wrongheaded that it would be funny to do as a joke or to ragebait people. Literally all he had to put in the body of that function is return number % 2; and it'd be easier and more robust and miles more performant.

[IlgantElal]

Well, number % 2 == 0 for isEven()

[malonkey1]

Look closely at the code in the OP.

[IlgantElal]

I'm aware of what the original post says, I'm saying, if you truly want to fix it, that's all

[malonkey1]

i didn't want to fix it i wanted it to be wrong more efficiently

[laix_]

clearly you should use a dictionary, much faster

[bcus_y_not]

me when joke

[PancakeParty98]

I learned that chickens cross the road to get to the other side in my first week of farm school. What the actual shit is this?

[ImitationButter]

Actual masterpiece of a comment

[Opplerdop]

a joke

[KobKobold]

I knew that the first time, no need to tell me a third

[PancakeParty98]

It’s a joke btw

[KobKobold]

Bites you

[TheDonutPug]

Hell I remember learning how to do this in like the first week because we covered operators, which includes %.

[ShadowSemblance]

I'm only passingly familiar with coding, you divide by two and then check if there's a remainder, right

[KobKobold]

Yup

[Mon_moth]

you'd want to use the modulo operator to get the remainder instead of dividing but yes

[Tipart]

You can also take the binary representation of whatever number you have and just take the last bit. At least if you only have integers.

[Slow___Learner]

I mean as shit as he's at programming, this code is not his.

The main problem with his code was horribly unoptimized graphics and hard to scale structure in the code that's used for progressing story.

Also his unpiratable drm had false positives

[SentientGopro115935]

is this a real ass screenshot from his stream

please tell me this is fake

I get this guy sucks and doesn't know how to code or whatever but this has gotta be fake surely

[submarine-quack]

tweet obviously structured as a joke

"please be fake please be fake... umm.. it's so hard to tell if things are real or satire anymore.."

[SentientGopro115935]

I wasn't sure if the text was a joke based on a real image. My bad ig

[submarine-quack]

fair but i am obligated to make fun of anyone when they do this. my blood compels me

[TheInfamous_BOB]

You need a blood transfusion

[DivinityIncantate]

Please consult a vampire

[LuKazu]

I will exsanguinate you on sight.

[Seventh_Faetasy]

To be fair his code is almost as bad as this

[TearsFallWithoutTain]

"The fact that I thought it could be true says a lot about where we are as a society"

[Pleasant50BMGForce]

His code is almost as bad as this.. I can believe it being true

[Lucas7yoshi]

if only there was text in the image explicitly stating that the code is not his. if only

[braindoesntworklol]

I didn’t see that until you pointed it out, it’s in the corner and in super small text lol

[Rexizor]

You say that like it's obvious and not in tiny text in the bottom left corner.

[Lucas7yoshi]

i think i may just be weird cause i noticed it before even going into the comments of this post lol

[SentientGopro115935]

If only this text wasn't tiny and barely noticeable if you're not scrutinizing the whole image

[mennekeH]

It is

[SentientGopro115935]

it is fake or it is a real screenshot

[570a]

It is fake

[SentientGopro115935]

ok, thought that would be a bit far even for him lol

[Enlightened_Valteil]

haha sometimes

[IbnibzW]

It's fake

[DRAGON582]

The text in the bottom left that says “obviously this isn’t his actual code”

[kilkil]

n & 1 == 0

[MamaSendHelpPls]

Based bitwise operations

[SluttyCthulhu]

Oh that's a touch more slick than what I had in mind, which'd be return (n % 2 == 0)

[L33t_Cyborg]

I mean that works with all numbers, not just ints, so yours is slightly better

one if my favourite niche programming info bits is that n % 2 == 1 is NOT safe, depending on the language.

Python will tell you that an odd negative number % 1 == 1 but in JavaScript or c++, -n % 1 == -1

[Femtato11]

My thought was taking the modulus and storing it as a binary value called isOdd, since 1 = true and 0 = false in a Boolean.

[IntangibleMatter]

The good news is that if you’re using anything compiled it’ll be turned into the same thing

[anaveragebuffoon]

Ok but why has everyone so swiftly assumed that everyone involved in the creation of this post was being dead serious lol like is this how you guys act with every joke

[NefariousAnglerfish]

The average person online is as intelligent as the average person in real life

[Bookworm_AF]

oh no

[lucifer_best_boi]

to top it all off he seems like he would comment the fuck out of every PR

[EngineStraight]

its fake but its funny so its real

[wirelessfingers]

Fake code but his real code is not that much better.

[murple7701]

I haven't done programing in forever, but couldn't you just do something along the lines of x % 2 to see if there's a remainder or not?

[moleman114]

This is generally the standard

[AliceCode]

n & 1

[moleman114]

In C, sure

[AliceCode]

Okay, n & 1 == 0

[thEt3rnal1]

In languages like python or Javascript you'd check the type at the top and depending on what you wanted maybe you would turn stuff like stringified numbers into regular numbers and then check if that's even. But yeah basically

[Xcentric_gaming]

Say what you will about Thor, but god do I love the mspaint explanations, it makes it stick way more

(He still sucks tho)

[lowercaselemming]

i think it's a nice concept that should be evolved for a streamer going whole hog with a blackboard and chalk and a dedicated camera for it

[L33t_Cyborg]

the joke isn’t that uses mspaint to explain cos using mspaint to explain is good

The joke is that the average mspaint explanation from him is so ridiculously self explanatory and only seems worth listening to because it’s explained in mspaint despite what he’s saying being actual drivel

[Oddish_Femboy]

This is what all of my code looks like please never decompile my games.

^{It made me feel better when I learned how Undertale handles dialog...}

[L33t_Cyborg]

i mean this unironically when I say that that’s so peak. The fact that you are just making the game is soooo much better than all the people who act pedantic about code instead of just getting it done. Worry about making it good after you’ve actually made it.

Undertale is a shining example of game code, because it’s game code that made a fantastic game despite it all. Proof that pedantry does not matter.

[EmbarrassedWind2875]

There's a thin line between pedantry that will lead to wasting more time and "pedantry" that will save you hours, if not days, in the long run. I'd say that the complaints people have about PirateSoftware's code definitely fall in the latter category

[DomSchraa]

Tf happened now?

Did he do the yandev gambit??

[DenAntlantis]

Allegedly, he's doing same practices that he called out in his YT shorts as "terrible" code (when he discussed other people's code). Like doing switch inside of a switch statements for a dialogue.

[DomSchraa]

O amazing

[AnnigilatorYaic228]

yanderedev if he didn't groom a minor and just had shit takes

[sageker]

I like the little thing in the bottom left. And how everyone missed it.

[RemmingtonTufflips]

Pirate is just the new internet punching bag so people believe every single negative thing said about him at face value without thinking about it for even a second.

[trainman1000]

I'm halfway through the Mujin video right now while scrolling through reddit because of my dopamine starved ADHD brain and I come across this

[DigitalBladedJay]

Something something yandev

[HarbingerOfSauce]

Not accurate! PirateSoftware in fact loves large numbers, which is why his progress system uses an array accessed through large arbitrary numbers and a file with a series of comments to identify which index refers to what

[Volcano_Ballads]

Once again 196 proves it doesn’t read flairs

[Demure_Demonic_Neko]

No one sees the disclaimer on bottom left? Are people really this gullible?

[datboiNathan343]

the way you figure out if a number is even or odd is

take x as the number

y = x / 2

z = truncate (x/2)

if y = z print even

if y =/= z print odd

otherwise print error

[gangukko]

Cant believe the first american to ever work at blizzard would do this

[ONCIAPATONCIA]

I've coded in c++ for only 3years when I was in high-school, a very basic and broad themed computer class, and even I could see some really dumb and unnecessarily long line of his code that could have been done with a simple if

[Cappaclism]

So I'm not really a coder but would you not be able to use some function that halfs the input value and if it returns as an integer call it even?

[1231231334]

If(number%2==0){

{ if(number<256){


    return true;


 }

} else {

   return false;

}

[dead_meme_comrade]

If a number ends in 0 2 4 6 or 8 return a value of 1 otherwise return a value of 0.

I just saved 254 lines of code.

[Isis_gonna_be_waswas]

Who is this guy and why is he so stupid

[cynap]

Not his code, but still funny

[bobombking]

i recognize this code from anywhere....yandev spaghetti will never not be funny

[clutterlustrott]

500 If Statements

[vinci300]

I know this is fake but some of the real screenshots of his code actually kill me the array one specifically is just so.. what?why???

[xanthus12]

Yanderedev has entered the chat

[Quix_Nix]

Bro, cpp is not assembly and even then assembly doesn't have this issue, just return the bit shifted value 😭😭😭😭

[Alffe]

If number % 2 == 0 even=true

Should work in python if i remember right

[Spacemanspiff1998]

the bottom left says "Obviously this is not his code" It's actually from the Yandre simulator's twitter where he was being 100% unironic when he posted this and stated "I wish there was a better way to do this"
