yogthos: I have problem y. How can I solve problem y?

StackOverflow: You don’t solve problem y. You solve problem x so that problem y never comes into being.

yogthos: Oh wow. Shit okay, well what if I’m already having problem y though? How can -

StackOverflow: bruh. Why are you even still thinking about problem y? Problem y isn’t real; it can’t hurt you. Problem y was just a mirage. Get it? It was a red herring. An epistemological myth you told yourself too many times and started believing. Problem y is just a sickness of the mind made manifest. Cleanse yourself of it.

I feel the existence of an “export” option in a piece of software is noble in this day and age, and I’m so appreciative of it.

It says “look, I don’t WANT you to go to my competitor, but I’m not gonna try to hold your data hostage to prevent it.”

It’s class, as the Scottish would say.

What scientists are these? Fully half of the U.S. is going to be underwater in the next thirty years?

Bull fucking shit.
