So much "nerd" paraphernalia is BS... This one is ridiculous (one doesn't get to "be a programmer" by sorting and collecting 10 personality traits as if they're goals or achievements) but at least it shows varied syntax in the C language: the number of unique keywords is very high.
To show you're a nerd, don't go with obvious "look, this is what I am" but use dogwhistles (Conway's Game of Life or fractals can look like knitting patterns) or to be obvious, some things you personally like or made. Badge with your distro's logo or mascot, code you actually wrote or its output, wearable blinkenlights project... Just be more focused on your interests than yourself.
TIL my idea of casual is actually ultra casual. That is pretty much what I wear at work in summer. In winter I would switch to trousers and add a jumper.
I always thought my casual was actually business because of the collared work shirt. Are you telling me I need a jacket or some sort of overcoat for it to actually be business?
And on most tech companies, "clothed" counts as business casual. Chinos with sneakers and a t-shirt is a way of saying you are looking to be promoted to a management role.
Almost every tech company Iāve worked at has had a āInvestors are coming, dress upā day. And when asked what ādress upā meant they said, āwear one of the more recent company branded t-shirt/hoodies we gave outā.
Business casual is a dress shirt and chinos/dress pants, loafers and sometimes a blazer/sports coat. Basically the omission of the tie and the fancy dress shoes makes it business casual. A polo and chinos is only business casual in a big box store or the tech industry. Anywhere else itās just casual.
I'm so confused. Business casual has always meant nice pants, button down shirt, but no tie or overcoat where I've been. I've also never seen the distinction between ultra casual and casual... maybe 'work casual' compared to 'casual.'
I own a kilt and have the little bag that goes around my waist. When I wear that shit (usually at the RenFest) with no underwear, I totally get dresses. Airy, freeing, so easy to lift it and just piss. It needs to be societally acceptable.

Clothes like these are great if one is a creepy nerd. One has an excuse good to go if caught.

Typical boring useless shit code. Using bad variable names, and in the end you just say "look, I can count to 10".
Before sorting: 8 6 1 10 5 9 3 2 4 7 Does it have a meaning? I don't think so.

int personality = sizeof(goals);
Feels a bit simplified to me.

You are correct, that is simplified. The whole line is
To get the length of an array in C, it's necessary to divide its memory footprint by the size of a single element!
BTW you can see what appears to be ASCII in the background of that image. You can decode it if you're bored.

Oof, this would genuinely make me like someone less. Like, it's great that you like nerd stuff but that's just bullshit...
Jayjader@jlai.lu · 6 pts · 187d
Yeah, go big or go home with this kind of stuff. Give me some Linux kernel source code, maybe even some well-known RFC!
Chais@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 187d
I suggest RFC 2549: IP over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service .

And my idea of ultra casual is actually shut in casual š
In winter I'd switch to sweatpants and a hoodie.
Also how is it ultra casual when he's still wearing shoes...

The "jeans and (white) shirt" tier seems to be missing.

That's farm casual. Farm business is full overalls and a straw hat.

Polo shirts aren't smart. Folk play tennis in them and the collar is floppy AF. They look scruffier than plain round neck T-shirt.

Is the business a tech company or a bank?
CrypticCoffee@lemmy.ml · 3 pts · 188d
I mean, if it's a bank, they've probably got some BS dress policy and it's chinos, shirt, shoes.

Does Svaha's old JavaScript dress fare better? I wish I could find a better source.

For a better source maybe try Rust?

Love how all of the ones labeled as "tie" have a bowtie, yet the only one with an "actual" tie is not a "tie" one
