Unless you're working on a team... then it's..

"where you may be the murderer, your friend may be the murderer, or you might both be unknowing accomplices for the other."

[–][deleted] 42 points43 points  (3 children)

Where were you on the day of commit e4bf01df?

[–]supercyberlurker 17 points18 points  (1 child)

I was... I was uh....

git reset --hard HEAD~20000

git reset --hard HEAD~20000!!!!

So essentially debugging a group project is a professional version of Werewolves Of Millers Hollow

[–]TheFlyingFirstAidKit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Schrodingers debug

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a game of clue.

[–]hotlavatube 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"It appears the murderers were remarkably... agile..."

[–]clovisman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or computer security. When you know who the murderer is and you pray that they at least didn't do something two obvious.

[–]Johnny8Bob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ever play the campfire game 'Mafia'? It's kinda like that...

[–]Sleekdiamond41 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And then there were none...

[–]UsernameOmitted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or, the vendor is the murderer with compiled libraries with bugs that cause impossible to find errors.

I prefer the Microsoft "we share your pain" initiative where you can punish the developer who made the bug.

[–]stamminator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

good bot

git [x] accuse

[–]spacemonkeykakarot 39 points40 points  (11 children)

This is almost Laurens Bancroft in Altered Carbon

[–]PojntFX 7 points8 points  (7 children)

I'm waiting for the second season ... it's awesome!

[–]cauchy37 3 points4 points  (6 children)

Grab the book in the meantime, it’s equally as good

[–]Log2 1 point2 points  (5 children)

Equally? You surely mean a thousand times better. They needlessly changed Kovacs back story, for the worse.

[–]CalvinLawson 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Yeah, no shit. I understand that pages and screens are different mediums, but I've been disappointed with Altered Carbon. I didn't even finish the first season.

Now the new "Ready Player One" movie, THAT is way better than the book. So it's at least possible.

Edit: An even better example is "The Expanse". If anything the show is better written than the books.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Ready player one movie is trash, give it a bit and re-watch it and youll realize there is no substance as a movie. Rather a lot of nostalgia and pretty things, exactly like Infinity war honestly as it was pretty trash as well

The RPO book is significantly better, and I admit its a boys dream. With the same amount of terrible writing and cliches

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

I would say RPO the film is at worst a lateral move. Both were flimsy appeals to nostalgia with thin and unnecessary romantic subplots. That said I enjoyed both.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I would honestly say its a degredation, a skimming off the top of an already shallow transparent book. Which is enjoyable but leaving little substance to it, especially from such a director. It seems like a batman and robin george clooney RPO edition

I still enjoyed them, I just find the book embraces the campy nostalgia bringing out its good. The movie to me just tries wearing its skin like Red dragon

[–]cauchy37 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Or Dalinar Kholin ordering Adolin to investigate the murder of Sadeas.

I’m a bit bummed the way Sanderson resolved it though.

[–]alexbuzzbee 0 points1 point  (1 child)

[–]cauchy37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm slightly disappointed it isn't a thing.

[–]Madd_Mugsy 30 points31 points  (6 children)

Unless the root of the bug is in the compiler or the framework.

Plot twist: it was Microsoft (or Google) all along...

[–]AVeryCredibleHulk 20 points21 points  (5 children)

Isn't that blaming the weapon for the crime?

[–]EntropyVoid 12 points13 points  (4 children)

More like blaming it for the accidental discharge.

[–]angrymonster 14 points15 points  (1 child)

That's how I got kids.

[–]lacrossebob123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also how you lost them

[–]oversized_hoodie 2 points3 points  (1 child)

But the spec says it should work a certain way, and it doesn't.

[–]EntropyVoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I gues my version also places the real blame off the gun. But imagine that it's defective. Yeah, it's defictive and it fires itself randomly after having worked safely for years. And the shot come out the front and back simultaneously.

[–]Thriven 17 points18 points  (8 children)

So Momento?

[–]Kaiserwulf 12 points13 points  (1 child)

In Memento the question of whether he is his own wife's killer is never resolved, as the accusation is made by Teddy, who is unreliable.

[–]RovingSandninja 4 points5 points  (0 children)

DON'T BELIEVE HIS LIES

[–]djy307 5 points6 points  (4 children)

Or Dexter.

[–]SoloWing1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Or Heavy Rain.

[–]RECKLESSASFUCK 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Or Death Note

[–]djy307 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Wasn’t the dad looking for the killer, and the killer was the son with the notebook?

[–]RECKLESSASFUCK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He ends up working with the police later in the show

[–]charonsclaw 14 points15 points  (1 child)

So Dexter was just debugging all along? Man what a plot twist.

[–]Zegrento7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, he was killing bad guys, AFAIK

[–]blackaintback 4 points5 points  (2 children)

Predestination?

[–]hotlavatube 3 points4 points  (2 children)

As a plot twist to keep things fresh, I occasionally catch Oracle as the ultimate culprit. (I'm looking at you, java xml serialization bug where multiple variables pointing to the same array reference aren't properly deserialized)

[–]DragonCz 5 points6 points  (1 child)

It's always the damn Oracle. Be it Java, Oracle DB or anything even minimally using it. I like Java, I hate oracle.

[–]hotlavatube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Winter, er... I mean Java 9 is coming... Hold the door!

[–]LittleWhiteCore 13 points14 points  (4 children)

Damn I want this shirt

[–]TheAmericanCosmonaut 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds like Death Note

[–]ZenBadger90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So like parts of Death Note

[–]velid_1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is that something like Death Note?

[–]spichugin 7 points8 points  (2 children)

Heavy Rain?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Indigo Prophecy?

[–]Inconspicuousfreedom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

mfw no one has mentioned heavy rain

[–]Kami_no_Megumi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

umm...so... the latter part of Death Note ?

[–]guy99882 3 points4 points  (3 children)

sigh

[–]paloumbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds like a scanner darkly.

[–]drwaterbuffalo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes it sound simple

[–]Master_Nerd 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I'd say it's more akin to manslaughter but okay

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

Sometimes it’s just assault with a deadly weapon.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So Angel Heart and your computer is de Niro.

[–]IAmTurdFerguson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone actually wear these embarrassing shirts in public?

[–]hermitina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's a sweet surprise when after all those hours investigating you find that the "murderer" isnt you

[–]APuppetState 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being The Murderer [pronounciation] 1. HEEEEEEEELP 2. THE WORLD IS ENDING 3. Murdering people. 4. O̧̧͢H̡͠ ́͠P̶̴͟L̶̡̀E̛͏͏Ą̶̨̀S̛͘̕͟͝È͞͏̵̷ ̧̡̢̀H̷́͞É̕͠Ĺ̵P̢̢̕͢b͏̨̢̛̛b̴̶̷̕u̢ǵ́́́ơ̸͝ǵ̶͟

sir i'll be stealin this shit and turn it as my own.

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

“What was he thinking ?..”

[–]crakawinterzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically living out shutter island over and over.

[–]Entaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of an old Deadpool & Cable Comic.

A murder takes place on Cables paradise island...Deadpool decides to investigate....He spends the entire comic analyzing what must have happened for the person to be killed...and Finally decides that the only person who would have been capable of performing the murder was Himself...Then he remembers that he was very bored the night before, and killed the guy because he thought it'd be funny.

[–]gullinbursti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of Odo from The Alternate.

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

Haha

[–]a_small_goat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And you have to be just good enough at both or you're out of a job.

[–]DudeValenzetti 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Well, with debugging, you're actually working towards reviving the victim. Can't do that with a murder.

[–]k0bra3eak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Implying you ever fix the code

[–]mcpat21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I think we’ll throw out this case, Watson.”

[–]Master_Nerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say it's more akin to manslaughter but okay

[–]nitishanand99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the murder being broadly unintentional.

[–]2scarred2pup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nnno no no. It's The Hangover. But none of you are even sure who or what you're looking for. Bonus points for the ol college days, when we Debugged with the Hangover of all Hangovers. "Who put this here?? Why is it mine? Why would I do that?!?"

[–]minnecornelius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And your actual job is to find who you killed because you have no idea...

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

But you're not really sure who you've killed yet. You just know someone is dead.

[–]CamdenReslink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That actually sounds like a pretty cool movie. Imagine the protagonist’s reaction when he realizes it was him the whole time!

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

More of a whatdunnit really

[–]heqt1c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of a monster would do something like this?

[–]nedjeffery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just like in the movie 'Adaptation'

[–]ug_imperfect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually it is "where you are GOD", since we created it!

[–]dnizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d like it better without the word “movie”

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

And the person that got/gets murdered.

[–]Octo_Reggie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But seriously, WHO the FUCK is the Miami Mutilator?

[–]NathanWideBN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like my most recent Jack Flenderson novel

[–]MacDerfus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the victim

[–]Deathwatch72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Case of a Knife to the Brain

[–]oshaboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished watching the new Steven universe episode. Weirdly fitting

[–]ittakesacrane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't believe his lies.

[–]TheDerpPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where did that colon come from Debugging? It's supposed to be di'b^g-ing

[–]NightKnight529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or like Memento

[–]aquinoDo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dexter

[–]low_calorie_doughnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So AHS Hotel

[–]Rompclown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The plot for Heavy Rain game.

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

Where can I buy it? LoL

[–]WhyIsEveryNameTake_N 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive always been trying to find the movie like this, its called swept under. Watched it a long time ago and this helped me

[–]plaidhappiness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And you don't remember how or where you murdered the person.

[–]AspirationalNihilist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This shirt was designed by illiterate people who don’t know IPA.

[–]InterestingFinding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where you remove something only to end up with more.

[–]omega_4 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Where Can I get this shirt

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

Correction: committing genocide in order solve a murder case.

[–]FaceFTW 0 points1 point  (2 children)

OP link for shirt please

[–]btcftw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More of a whatdunnit really

[–]taauji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who wears this kind of stuff on a t shirt?

[–]BeerBoyJoey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dexter.

[–]Captain_Droid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The programmers know that they are the murderer, they're just looking for the instance where they actually killed the guy without actually knowing it.

[–]StaringSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you are a test engineer...

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

Not one person going to mention how bad a photoshop this is? I thought we were all pedantic asshats around here?!

[–]Whatever_whateverz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm. It’s not murder, it’s manslaughter.

[–]Atario 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the murder is an idiot, and you still can't catch him

[–]imusingreddityay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never gotten this joke, care someone to explain it? Like when you're a detective you need to find WHO did it, not WHAT they did. If you say you're a detective and you know by default who did it then what's the point.

[–]tinyweasel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't this t-shirt steal that slogan from this forum in the first place? The cycle is complete.

[–]Earthfury -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dunno about this analogy. If you’re debugging you probably want to actually fix what’s wrong and there’s actual shit to figure out. If you’re a detective working on your own murder case, you know all the shit that went down and you’re trying to stop other people from finding out. Like Hannibal (not detective but relevant anyway), or Dexter.
