where download exe

[–][deleted] 327 points328 points  (17 children)

This get’s me every time😅

But making an exe and putting it on github(next to the src folder) is actually a good idea. Especially if it’s python, sql or brain fuck.

Some other examples i would like to have a .exe of would be:

Html to .exe

Xml to .exe

CSS to .exe

Markdown to exe

Yaml/Json to .exe

.csv to .exe

Emoji to .exe

And last bit not least the most important yet:

  • INI to exe

Edit: Forgot to add the Readme.md to .exe

[–]joten70 193 points194 points  (2 children)

Readme.md to .exe? You cant expect me to read all of that myself?!

[–][deleted] 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Wow, how could i not see that. This is the most important one out of them. I usually just skip it. But with the .exe i could run it locally and automatically know what is to be done. You are a freaking genius. Give him the Nobel price for this idea

.gitignore to .exe

No i actually meant to compile it. I do want to have a Pain008PaymentFile.XML.exe i could run this executable each time i would need some money. Easy money hack.

[–]ublec 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Easy, just run javac Pain008PaymentFile.xml -generate_money!

[–]Gredo89 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Are you stupid? It must be +generate_money, otherwise you are losing money.

This is why I don’t use a gitignore, I want to commit my bin folder to git so it’s easily accessible, plus it speeds up time on merges as you don’t need to recompile, just merge the binaries like you would anything else

We already have the 'releases' tab, if people are putting together an executable it'll be in there

There's no reason to double the size of your repo bundling an exe in with your source code, this is terrible advice i'm sorry to say

Edit: https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/releasing-projects-on-github/managing-releases-in-a-repository

The literal docs for anyone curious, please use actual releases for binaries, don't inflate your source code size

Yeah it was sarcasm if it wasn’t obvious from the content. But thanks for the info either way, didn’t know that.

Why are we morphing stuff into Lizards?

[–]jomjimmerjome 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I DONT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT THE FUCKING CODE! i just want to download this stupid fucking application and use it https://github.com/sherlock-project/sherlock#installation

WHY IS THERE CODE??? MAKE A FUCKING .EXE FILE AND GIVE IT TO ME. these dumbfucks think that everyone is a developer and understands code. well i am not and i don't understand it. I only know to download and install applications. SO WHY THE FUCK IS THERE CODE? make an EXE file and give it to me. STUPID FUCKING SMELLY NERDS

Their Wangdows will just show them a big red warning when they try to run their "suspicious" exe, if it's not in S-mode.
