HTML, the programming language, is a practical, turing-complete[1], stack-based programming language based on HTML, the markup language. It uses elements defined in HTML, the markup language, in order to do computations.

73% of numerical statistics go unverified

If you put a decimal in your statistic, it becomes 82.6% more believable.

71.2% of all statistics are made-up on the spot.

I don't believe you because the end of your sentence wasn't emphatic enough. Period. Mic drop.

And 5 in 10 Americans think you can parse it with regular expressions.

You can parse anything with regex, if you’re willing to give up your soul for it.

I will die on the hill that HTML should be treated like a programming language.
extant@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y
The hyper text markup language programming language?
Molten_Moron@lemmings.world · 5 pts · 2y
I absolutely agree, and luckily I think it mostly is treated as a programming language. It's just a technicality that makes for a great joke.

They're wrong too, although less-so.
Also, what about that last American?
activ8r@sh.itjust.works · 7 pts · 2y
The last one knows it's not a programming language and is annoyingly vocal about it.

USA > USB
s12@sopuli.xyz · 9 pts · 2y
I disagree. USB is superior.
If you are talking about physical size however, then yeah. USA is bigger than a single USB.
xilophor@programming.dev · 5 pts · 2y
Which is larger though, USA or all the USBs in the world?
s12@sopuli.xyz · 1 pts · 2y
Probably still USA.
