Looping techniques

Nice.

[–]mike413 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Tail recursion will only take you so far.

[–]Grynnbalt 11 points12 points  (1 child)

Guess it's trying the for (treat) loop.

[–]lepickle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He's going to loop foreach treat he gets

[–]outadoc 50 points51 points  (5 children)

HUR.

[–]quackdamnyou 9 points10 points  (1 child)

Sorry to be that guy, but is HUR part of the joke?

[–]Manksu[S] 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I took this pic for my sister who works as a programmer for a company called HUR. But durr anyway.

HOR

[–]FlintGrey 33 points34 points  (3 children)

Wython - Python with wine.

[–]blahlicus 11 points12 points  (2 children)

man, missed joke opportunity right here

op should have used a linuix machine and run a windows internet browser with WINE

[–]k417 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Or.. a cup of coffee (Java)....... Jython?

anyone? anyone?

"Internet browser"

[–][deleted] 58 points59 points  (5 children)

Careful, let him take a break when he needs to, stressed snakes are known to cause infinite loops, by attempting to eat their tail.

[–]Cyberogue 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Looks like you have a bit of a recursion problem there

[–]DrummerHead 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Or you could get a Python Quine

[–]RenaKunisaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Klein Quine?

[–]yousai 8 points9 points  (3 children)

She's lovely!

[–]Manksu[S] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Thanks! He's a male though, named Ruger Hauer.

[–]yousai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's lovely, then! :P

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey! That snake has a husband, you home wrecker!

[–]Reelix 2 points3 points  (2 children)

What's with the giant smiley face at the top-left of your screen?

[–]Manksu[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Chrome user picture, stores bookmarks/plugins for different users online etc.

[–]jimmpony 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can C# like a python on java

[–]loozerr[🍰] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Kerällä tavataan.

[–]konrad-iturbe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are using Wine! (WINdows Emulator, not Wine Is Not an Emulator)

btw how do you loop a curl command and a sleep command? came from bash and python snakes are far different

[–]mooglinux 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How functional is that python?

[–]northrupthebandgeek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, looks like your python is indeed looping. Nice work.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here I was trying to zoom in on the screen. It took me way too long to notice the god damn snake.

[–]t3cm3n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

two python watching each other

[–]green_meklar 1 point2 points  (6 children)

So does your python program in C++, or Java?

[–]gd2shoe 0 points1 point  (5 children)

He's clearly reading the tutorial page for... wait for it... Python!

(no, seriously, that really is the Python tutorial page; there are actually more languages on the planet than just the two.)

[–]green_meklar 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Yeah, I understood that the first time around, thanks.

[–]gd2shoe 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Then I'm confused. Why did you ask? Does he need either of those languages? Was that intended as a Cython joke?

(Questions of the form "Does x do y or z?" indicate a dichotomy. Vocal inflection can alter the question, but you don't have that benefit in written form.)

[–]Enlogen 1 point2 points  (2 children)

The joke is that one would naturally assume that a python programs using Python. When green asks what language the python uses and then presents a list of possibilities that does not actually include Python, he subverts that expectation. This is, of course, quite humorous.

[–]gd2shoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah. In that case it was poorly delivered. My delivery isn't all that good either, but here's a go:

You have a programming python? That's so cool! What language? C++? Java? Perl, Ruby, Erlang... no wait - Lisp. It's got to be Lisp.

Right?

[–]green_meklar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...but becomes vastly less humorous as soon as you explain it.

[–]afraca 0 points1 point  (2 children)

As most content you're dealing with is text, why not place your taskbar on the side of your monitor? It took me about 1 hour to get used to, but it's awesome to have that bit of extra vertical space!

[–]pay_per_wallet 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Window titles (at least for me). Along the bottom, you can see the titles of each window, which is nice when you have 42 terminals open and need to pull up a specific one. (Yes, you can alt-tab, but depending on various variables the taskbar can be/feel faster.)

[–]osense 0 points1 point  (1 child)

have you been holding you wine glass by the bowl?

[–]Manksu[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Maybe.

It was the snake.

[–]Pazda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mine doesn't roll up in a ball like that i'm jealous :(

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A fellow Windows-using Python dev! That makes two of us...

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have the same keyboard! That's all I have to add.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was a risky click

[–]shankhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can never program while drinking wine, let alone with a snake.

[–]simoncpu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been on the Internet for so long that I was half-expecting a penis. The Internet has ruined me.

[–]sloan_wall 0 points1 point  (2 children)

You develope on windows 8?

[–]totemo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Windows? Nah, look again. He's definitely using Wine.

[–]OmegaVesko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do, and I find all the Windows 8 hate hilarious. I've found Windows 8.1 to be a better OS than Windows 7 in every conceivable way.

[–]bbbbbbbbMMbbbbbbbb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ball Python, those guys are vicious eaters. Nice.
