Welcome to Programmer Humor!
This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
This is really, "what techs call it" and "what non-techs call it".
As a tech, I usually know what someone means when they "app".
It's "glitch" that drives me mad though. Glitch sounds like a ghost caused the error one tine only, versus some lazy coder.
To be fair i would consider a glitch to be closer to a ghost causing it than a lazy developer.
I consider a "bug" to be something caused by the code (bad error handling, bad logic, etc) and a "glitch" to be something more random or environmental
I very much hate the word app. That's probably my biggest boomer trait.
For me, it's cloud.
You should check the Cloud to Butt extension. It is immature, but it can make you laugh
They trying the Algorithm to AI nowdays.
I powered on my computer, my app started, which started my main app, which started my essential apps, which started my app that I use to open my other app, which I use to go to my other app that I use to watch other apps being used by otgher people.
You will get an invisible candy if you can correctly decode this.
I'll bite: I powered on my computer. My bios started which started my init process, which started my daemons, which started my login manager (maybe slim), which started my DE (maybe gnome), which I use to go to my browser in order to watch other people stream video games.
I'm dicey on what the browser is being used for - maybe security software? - but I feel like it's plausible.
I hate the term. It waters down true programmers and hard work. 9 year old rips off someone and makes game, "app". Actual software dev makes useful program using hard work and their own assets, "app".
What's the difference between an application and a program?
Historically, an app is something with very limited uses, and a program is more powerful.
Adobe PhotoShop is a program. Apple Photos is an app.
I miss when game had content patches instead of dlc
