This would actually be useful for local testing of software during development.

No because 4 is the obvious wrong answer. 21+3 my isses idea completely.

4(exclamation) is wrong while 4(factorial) is right.

I think the smugness of someone who knows factorials is also part of what makes it fun.

No the joke is that first think they got wrong, then realize it’s a factorial so they got it right (the a-ha moment!).

Then we realize that they might not have gotten it because the wrong answer is 4 and they may not know of factorials.

The ambiguity is very clever. Some other commenters call it a pun.

4 != 24 but also

4! = 24

4! = 5-5/5

Using parentheses where a few simple rules will do seems awfully inefficient. Both to write and to read.

They are not the same, but 0 can be implicitly converted to false.

What do you get if you do: 0 === false

I agree. If anything it should check if there is a nuumber and 0 is clearly a number.

Vintergatan in Sweden. Winter way. We only talk about the weather.

I guess we could have been wrong about all those dragon fossils we have found. They might just be huge birds.

There’s a new Black Mirror episode about a brain implant that randomly injects ads into conversation without the consent or knowledge of the “user”.

Døgn vs dag

I think they are talking about typescript which is compiled into javascript

Much the latter.

Plus everything better work perfecly out of the box on any hardware, and there is a lot of different hardware. Compatibility layers are often built into the package.

Java, for instance, recommenda that you package the whole (albeit slimmed down) JVM inside the package for the target platform, rather than relying on the java runtime installed already.

The users arent expected to know any of that anymore.

Just try it. You can usually convert a single file at a time. Start small (or even with a pet project)

The government is very split on many questions. Privacy being a weird one because it’s the (somewhat) left-leaning Social Democratic that usually come up with these crazy ideas without understanding the implications of privacy.

…on my machine.

Interesting idea but they are comparing different year surveys with the same age children.

Do you think that kids are more prone to lying now, than earlier years?

And micro transactions

Any professional would have a code repository and probably a build server which spits out binaries left and right, off site of course.

Bonus points if that is the easiest way to deploy the software, so all developers actually use it.
