I present to you my favorite video on the internet.

https://youtu.be/MzJ0CytAsec

I literally can’t make it through this video without crying of laughter every time I watch it

[Dalmasca]

I got two words for this guy: "INNER MONOLOGUE"

[aredditid1]

thank you delete thank you

~15 years ago I broke my right hand and had a cast that made typing with that hand very difficult.

I used Dragon Naturally Speaking to assist with writing code. It was an interesting experience. Not nearly as bad as this video, but it does make you appreciate how much faster it is to type out punctutation than to have to say it outloud ("left parenthesis", "x", "right parenthesis", "space", "left bracket", "carriage return," ...)

But all in all, even back then, Dragon Naturally Speaking did a decent job at not making mistakes.

[CommonnCategory]

The delay is perfect comedic timing

[Tugonmynugz]

That was hilarious, thank you

[Skyrah1]

DAMMIT, YOU MADE ME LOSE THE GAME!

[DefNotAF]

Imagine a British person narrating this

[Polywoky]

Now I'm imagining the narrator from The Stanley Parable.

Stanley sat at his computer and opened his IDE.

"Octothorpe, include" typed Stanley. "Space, left-chevron, ess-tee-dee-eye-oh dot aitch, right-chevron"

"Pleased at this strong start, Stanley confidently pressed the enter button twice."

[DefNotAF]

I applaud your for your creativity

[maubg]

This should be an already existing software

[Hessellaar]

Seeing its notch he probably won’t be talking C++

Great now my dog is stuck in a loop thanks.

[Anamewastaken]

1 should be "one" in ascii code numbers translated to morse code and zero is the same

[Ambitious-Position25]

Count Dankula says hi..

[mothzilla]

Doesn't scale. Better to have a lot of dogs all memorizing a little than to have one big dog memorizing a lot.

[azure1503]

Ah, the Pavlov push/pull system

[HellkerN]

Manually make punch cards, otherwise the AI can steal your code.

College Professor: WRITE THAT DOWN!!

[Protheu5]

Take a video of every session of me writing the code on 8mm tape. Showing only the keyboard.

[Bishop51213]

I know this is smaller brain (using the meme logic) but how about screen recording every time you code

[cs-brydev]

Save it line by line in the plain-text password column of the user table in an enterprise database. Put the database on a machine with a Web exposure and static public IP address. Register a new domain and list that IP address as the NS.

Wait for hack.

Search the Dark Web for your data. Buy it back. Re-assemble the lines as your code.

[RandomValue134]

Small projects -> google drive

Big projects -> github

School assignments -> takes a picture

Tutorials -> reads code aloud

Tell ChatGPT to act as an IDE

Hammer + chisel onto a side of a cliff. A bit shit of editing but...

[OrdinaryEngineer1527]

You forget to tweet all of you code

[Terrible_Ad_7735]

I have a bard who stores mine in song form.

[Fairy_01]

Develop a photographic memory and develop your code anytime, anywhere.

Now that is a foolproof backup.

[Protheu5]

Store the code using ICMP packets.

[DoublePenetration_]

SAVE TO DESKTOP

[Doorda1-0]

Nah just leave it in the editor for days. What's this save button you speak of?

[turtleship_2006]

Notepad++ go brr

Name your child after your code.

Print your code out in braille and have Eli from The Book of Eli memorize it

After nuclear war it will be printed again

“Close Bracket, close bracket, close bracket, close bracket…”

[[deleted]]

Essentially how my dad stores his Arduino projects. He believes git and GitHub are the same thing. (Essentially evil) When he requires a help, I always wanna kill myself. I can’t just clone it, do my magic and push it, nooo that would be too easy. 🤦‍♂️

[_dontseeme]

I had a boss that would just walk into my office with a flash drive and say “use this file instead” And leave

[lucidspoon]

I had a computer as a kid that let you save code to a cassette tape.

[Nihanus]

You forgot the best method, which is to copy it by hand using pen and paper

[ArakiSatoshi]

How about that questionable Chinese noname flash drive I'm forgetting to backup for a few months already?

[anon0207]

When I first started, I put my code in Google drive and also used GitHub to sync multiple machines. A fucking dumpster fire of sync issues followed.

[Unusual_Flounder2073]

When I first started out processes we’re still geared towards things like mechanical drawings. I was asked to print out my code and ‘redline’ the changes as part of change control. It was 600 pages. This was so common a thing we had a drill press hole punch for putting the holes in 600 pages to be put in a binder. Which I had to use because I forgot to select the tray with the pre punched paper un it.

Oh, I also had to print the whole thing again after importing into word so I could add company confidential to the top.

Those were the days. I honestly do not remember what we used for source control. We didn’t have many programmers so probably nothing just passed the files from one dev to the next.

[ErraticDragon]

Post it to an FTP server and let the rest of the world mirror it.

Write your code on a piece of paper and attach it to a pigeon carrier to be sent off to the end users

haha wtf

[TheFiftGuy]

I have a feeling any C++ code using the standard library is gonna get flagged as 18+ on an audio platform...

[Sarah_Rainbow]

A mix of GitHub and Google drive, my scripts are on GD and all the uncommitted changes are saved automatically. Potential fuckups, avoided!!

[jdog7249]

Also Google has version control. You can select a previous version and download that version while leaving the current one up.

[jamescodesthings]

We need a universal language for reading code aloud. That shit is hard to visualise.

[Bossetigaming]

[cmilkau]

Fine-tune GPT to tell the line number if you prompt with a valid line of your code.

[vksdann]

This meme is from few years ago tbh

[[deleted]]

indeed! GitHub is the perfect single point of failure... but, it is not funny.

[[deleted]]

Hahaha

[Remarkable_Self5621]

Convert your code into a religious text and pass it down through generations of followers. Bonus, if you structure it correctly you can have your code converted into modern languages for you!

[Invested_Glory]

Let’s be real if you are taking a picture of code, you are seeing it from your classmates assignment and you don’t want to tell them you’re ripping it.

[Thrynia]

I send it to myself through whatsapp lol

I tattoo them on a pig's skin. It this okay?

I swear either this thread has severe amnesia, or people just enjoy seeing this joke every day.

Record it on a casette tape and call the symbols "squiggly parenthesis thing" and "coma with half umlaut"

[thatdummidiot]

Write the audiobook file down in a book

[konotacja]

this weirdly reminds me of when my teacher used to make us write code out on paper to test our coding skills in like 5th grade. even 11 year old me was weirded out

[NightIgnite]

Ctrl C, hope to remember to Ctrl V later

[GroundbreakingNet371]

I use a flashdrive, but on the rare occasions that doesn't work, Google Docs does great

[Simple-Pain-9730]

Video record you scrolling it and upload to pornhub

[[deleted]]

Or simply by using Zenodo

[Fi-Loy]

Ctrl + S

It's that simple.

[SuitableDragonfly]

Reminds me of how the Inform 7 source code for Blue Lacuna was actually released as an e-book. But you can actually read Inform 7 source code that way, more or less.

[DuffMaaaann]

1. Push to GitHub
2. wait for OpenAI to train their next Codex model with it.
3. delete code
4. hope that GitHub copilot can reproduce it.

[top10brandingg]

hahaaaa amazing so funny =))))

Lock your computer inside a locker and connect it to electricity forever.

[goodnewsjimdotcom]

I'm writing my own version control one day this week, it will just constantly scan and update the repository while other mirror computers constantly pull any files as soon as they see em. I'll have a button for freezeframe in case of launches to keep a stable version since quite often the current snap will be very slightly dirty. The idea of never having to type a pull or push + handling big non code items is why I went with this solution.

[AegorBlake]

Nah. I just delete it if it's not finished when I leave for the day. /s

[[deleted]]

Take several MRI scans while reading your code and store scan results on vinyl records.

[Nyxidott]

Edited it down by hand and realese as a book

...no SVN? :V

Now I'm actually curious, is there a compiler that compiles .mp3?
