What is Digg?554 Comments
- jasmus, on 08/14/2008, -4/+671... what exactly are we digging here?
- active1x0, on 08/14/2008, -24/+305A woman? Programming? She better be programming me a turkey sandwich...
- themadhatter444, on 08/14/2008, -8/+280I hate pictures that take 2+ minutes to find the funny. I hate even more when I can't find it.
- Managua8Green, on 08/14/2008, -8/+272I don't get it.
- TheInimitable, on 08/14/2008, -4/+192I've been completely out-nerded on Digg... I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but I still feel like I should know what's going on here!
- bratterscain, on 08/14/2008, -12/+147When you see it, you'll ***** bricks.
- KevinJim, on 08/13/2008, -21/+152This proves that the mythical creatures known as good-looking ( at least descent-looking ) female programmers exist.

Can you not see that if you choose no, it sets a variable to 1. My guess (since that code is off the screen somewhere) is that if that variable isn't 1, the test will run again.
U FAIL @ CODE - trmanco, on 08/12/2008, -2/+100Hey, I would like to have a Sun LCD screen, a Sun keyboard and a Sun mouse too, :)
- greanbean, on 08/14/2008, -35/+130it doesnt actually rerun the test. it just prints out "rerunning the test... " lol
- n0t0kayipr0mis3, on 08/14/2008, -0/+94I love how people have no clue as to why they're digging the article.
- smackert, on 08/14/2008, -2/+82I think this is getting dugg because noone knows what we're digging. If you do, please explain.
- bizkit00, on 08/14/2008, -0/+78yea i thought we were looking for some ludicrous part of her code that proves girls cant program. but I guess he just liked the picture...
- -Jaguar-, on 08/14/2008, -2/+76THE WINDOW IS OPEN.
- JMJimmy, on 08/14/2008, -13/+87Umm, that would be the line of code that, in english language terms, "If the user says yes to running the test again, print a message to the screen and do nothing."
- Rodalli, on 08/14/2008, -2/+74There's obviously something significant occurring here, but I'll be damned if I know what it is...
- ta10n, on 08/14/2008, -4/+70A female progammer & soldier coding a perl script in emacs in what looks to be a funky looking government lab. Guess the submitter, thought that was dig worthy (Smart + female + may be able to kick your ass == digg?). *shrug* I'm not really sure how the submitter selected that specific line for the title though.
- Loonacy, on 08/14/2008, -8/+73Definitive proof that emacs rules? Girls use it!
- analreceiver, on 08/12/2008, -2/+61Who's Luke?
- baithe, on 08/14/2008, -4/+55Looks like she's taken.
- arjie, on 08/14/2008, -0/+51Okay, I'll tell you. She's wearing woodland camouflage in a computer lab. That and the fact that in the background you will notice the historic moment when Gordon Freeman put the sample in the beam.
- pandaro, on 08/14/2008, -0/+49I'm really reaching here, but what if Luke wrote the file called parse.pl?
- luker, on 08/14/2008, -3/+51I am.
- jasmus, on 08/14/2008, -0/+47someone points out below that it actually sets a variable, like a boolean to a certain value that may be used in code we can not see. I also point out we don't even know if the code is finished, or if she is working on it.
- aznpwnzor, on 08/14/2008, -2/+49I'm digging cause others are. you?
- inactive, on 08/14/2008, -2/+47i am disappointed that i had to go so far into the comments to find this....
- jasmus, on 08/14/2008, -2/+46How about a woman not using emacs, but having sex with you.
- DrakeRangoon, on 08/14/2008, -4/+46http://img364.imageshack.us/my.php?image=diggbd7.j ...
- rnawky, on 08/14/2008, -2/+43Oh man thanks for mirroring an image on a military website.
- buddyw, on 08/14/2008, -6/+43That's hot. God I love nerdy women. (It would even hotter if she was using vi instead of emacs)
- Soave, on 08/14/2008, -0/+35I hate it even more when it's not even very funny :/
- bradg2, on 08/14/2008, -0/+35And mousepad....
- deepusudhakar, on 08/14/2008, -4/+38Title is wrong...supposed to be: if($again =~ /^[yY]$/)
On that note, would it be faster to do: if(lc($again) eq "y")
I miss Perl. - jasmus, on 08/14/2008, -0/+34So who is digging this to the front page if we all have no clue what we're supposed to be looking at?
This just in: Person works at a computer. Dugg! - teknolyfe, on 08/14/2008, -3/+35This picture is missing a pancake...
- rootnik, on 08/13/2008, -2/+33Looks like perl...
- cryoknight, on 08/14/2008, -1/+32Yeah, except you can't see the code at the top that would match the bracket at the bottom. Could be a while loop that runs until "again" is false.
- inactive, on 08/14/2008, -1/+28Why?
I dont quite know the significance of this. or a purpose to digg - MaskedSlacker, on 08/14/2008, -7/+33A woman using vi would be sexier.
Emacs is for wimps. - loganhid, on 08/13/2008, -1/+27This is Area 51
- CrunchyZergling, on 08/14/2008, -0/+26There is likely a loop that exits when $it is 1 and is ended by the "}" after the elsif, so no, this code would work fine. If that is why people are digging this, that is pretty lame.
- iMiXiMi, on 08/14/2008, -7/+33$ans = htrtn "was the data good? (y/n)", "SRTN"; bl; if ($ans =~ /^[yY]$/) { $data = 1; } elsif ($ans =~ /^[nN]$/) { $data = 0; }
The code is a bit faulty, it only checks for Y|y or N|n, what if someone types something else (such as "Yes")? Then $data is undefined or keeps it previous value.
Not very good defensive programming.
from reddit - Drahkar, on 08/14/2008, -0/+26Hate to burst your bubble but everyone has a fine layer of hair all over their body. Its a side effect of being descendants from Apes.
Welcome to the 21st Century. Please keep your arms and legs inside of the bus at all times, because reality has proven dangerous for the clueless. - ConanTL, on 08/14/2008, -1/+27What is this sex you speak of? I tried using apt-get install sex, but it doesn't seem to be in the Debian repository.
- rnawky, on 08/14/2008, -2/+26Someone needs Adblock Plus
- wondertwins, on 08/14/2008, -2/+26Luke Skywalker
- PinkoComrade, on 08/14/2008, -2/+25I fancy the Sun mouse pad
- inksmithy, on 08/14/2008, -1/+24Regex isn't a language, it is a tool for parsing text. Used in most programing languages when dealing with text input.
- inactive, on 08/14/2008, -1/+24Your comment was so random that it made me burst out laughing and click the thumbs down button and at the same time.
