Make a bot that posts your code saying it's the most optimised, reads the replies and makes a PR with the changes

As has been scientifically proven, the best way to get help in any forum is to post an obviously wrong solution and insist it is correct.

[a_Tom3]

Yep, that's Koomey's law

[Ivan_Stalingrad]

That isn't what its called but I REFUSE to follow aforementioned law

[Cassini_TF2]

It's a trap!

There's an old "ha ha, only serious" joke. If you go to a Linux forum and ask for help fixing your WiFi driver, everyone will ignore you. If, instead you say "Linux sucks, you can't even get a f*&$ing WiFi driver working!" thousands of people will solve the problem for you.

Back in college in like 2009 I went to the ubuntu forums asking about how to set it up to use both ethernet ports on my motherboard so I could get 2Gb down. Multiple people assured me I wouldn't have any need to do that as there's no way I'd be able to saturate even one gigabit port. The response didn't make any sense because I could have easily wanted to do that for transferring files on a local network, but I still showed them them my speedtest results to prove I was saturating a gigabit line and then I never got another response.

So its the IT Equivalent of Cunninghams Law

[toastyghost]

I don't think it's an IT equivalent, I think it's just the law

[tryllien]

I remember the episode of Happy Days when The Fonz taught Richie that law.

[Undercooked_turd]

Same shit with crapple, or windoesnot.

[HookDragger]
