great now the oiiaioiiai is stuck in my head
It is amazing to me that this gif of a cat spinning against a green background puts the exact same noise in all of our heads.
The memes of terrible code snippets with Thor's face on them are great and I'm all here for it.
New format just dropped
Actual image
Thor went on vacation, never came back
Call the png
Memestorm incoming
Ignite the keyboard
He will be turned into a Wojak pretty soon, won't he? :D
I'm starting to think that's what he wants at this point
What format? 🤣
Google en Thor
Holy hell.
Why is his name Thor LMAO. I've only encountered dogs with that name IRL.
It's his middle name, his first name is Jason
Because he banged his knee on the side of the bed, and he’s still Thor
Allegedly, he was given the middle name Thor because he was born during a thunderstorm. Allegedly. I don't know he's lied about anymore.
Hey, I was born during a thunderstorm, the power even went out at the hospital. I was born in the dark, in that time window between power going out and generators kicking in. I demand a cool middle name.
Okay Nox.
Okay you'll be Raspberry.
What ? You didn't say it had to be related to a storm or blackout.
I feel called out.
Your new middle name is Erebus, God of Darkness
How about Jupiter?
My son was born during a blizzard, I will rename him Bobby Kotick.
You can be Rava Powercut Saurio.
Oh like Snowwhite
That is my real first name :)
Do you own a laboratory or a labrador?
I met a guy once whose real name was Thor
I've known somebody with the last name Thorson. He got called "son of Thor" a lot :-D
If you look at Scandinavians, that is litterly what it means!
Iceland is one of the few countries that also have a female variation of that as well!
Son / Sen - Son of # Dottir - Daughter of
Edit: weird format
Phil, son of Coul.
I think it's fine if you live in Scandinavia, otherwise it's about as weird as getting named Zeus.
Yet, it seems even stranger for a Greek to be named Zeus
Its a common name in Scandinavia. I know at least 3 guys named Thor.
Edit: Just for some fun extra info: Its really common to be named Thorbjørn, which is basically Thor Bear together.
In Iceland you'll run into sooo many names with Þór/Thor. Like:
- Arnþór (Eagle Thor)
- Álfþór (Elf Thor)
- Ástþór (Love Thor)
- Brimþór (Wave Thor)
- Bergþór (Cliff Thor)
- Bjarnþór (Bear Thor but distinct from Thor Bear somehow)
- Dagþór (Day Thor)
- Friðþór (Peace Thor)
- Hólmþór (Field Thor)
- Jónþór (John... Thor)
- Kristþór (Christ Thor because why not)
- Magnþór (Great Thor)
- Oddþór (Pointy Thor)
- Sveinþór (Lad Thor)
- Sigþór/Sigurþór (Victory Thor)
And then there's the "Þór"-Thors:
- Þór ([])
- Þórarinn/Þórörn (Thor Eagle)
- I need to stop here or I'll be here all day. Here's the Þór- section of the list of accepted Icelandic male names
Friðþór (Peace Thor)
Impossible.
It's a common name in many countries. It has so many derived names too, including many women name.
Because his dad chose it
His dad knew he would grow long hair and hammer away at it all day.
His dad called him jason then had to correct himself to say thor so I highly doubt it
Jason first Thor middle I believe
It's his middle name, but he thinks it makes him sound special so he goes by it
I mean if my name is “Bob Zeus Smith” I’d call myself Zeus
His name is Jason
i forgot that his first name is Jason,
JSON.
i will not elaborate
[deleted]
Javadcript object notation my favourite
His name is Thor
His full name is Jason Thor Hall
He goes by his middlename, like many people in the world do
Idk his dad instinctively called him Jason the other day.
Well I have a nickname as well that pretty much everyone uses. Except my mom who uses my first name. I think that's quite common that a person goes with a different name than what their parents call them.
He does it to aura farm. Same reason he lies about coding ability. So it’s funnier to call him Jason
I call people by their first name.
So Jason...
If my middle name was Thor i would absolutely go by it
Jason*
The font is going to turn comic sans any minute
Mmmm i kinda like it....
I've been using this font in my editor for years now. It is great.
This is amazing. I will set it as the default font in Intellij for the setup image of the develop machine and look at everybody else cringe to their core with this boomer special attack.
Kinda reminds me of Monaco
I don't hate it actually. Maybe cuz all characters have the same width. Thanks
i use papyrus in vscode
I use handwriting, its specifically useful for blueprints
Who is this person and why are they suddenly all over this subreddit?
He writes crappy code, but prides himself on being a 20 yoe “hacker” who worked for Amazon, Blizzard, and the DOE. But over the past few months, he’s been the center of controversy from cheating in games to misquoting/misrepresenting a gaming movement called “stop killing games”. All because his ego is through the roof and he won’t apologize.
The code review videos from various creators have been fun to watch. He writes intern-level code, and him trying to defend it as the pinnacle of code writing hits a nerve.
Idk if I met many programmers that held their code on a pedestal. The scale always seems to be at best they like it at worst they hate it with a burning passion
Sure, but I've met plenty that hold others below their own. Viewing yourself as having sunk the least is still placing yourself on a pedestal of sorts.
I do realize the irony of saying this in this context.
I could write code for 30 years at a high level and I would still think I code like a donkey. It genuinely feels like programming is an endless endeavor, especially since you can use it to express basically anything.
If you define everything using progressively larger strings of e then it will truly be an endless endeavour and not merely feel like one.
The difference is those programmers likely don't take any chance they can to brag about being a game dev for 20 years and working at Blizzard as a dev constantly (both lies of course)
I'm always sweating cobs every time I request a code review.
He writes intern-level code
The code I was writing back in Uni for mid-semester assignments was better than his current game code and I DON'T take pride in what I wrote.
At least I had the decency to use a for loop.
May I get a link to his code ?
No, because he hasn't shared his codebase(expected). We have only what we've seen on his twitch stream.
The best you can get is visiting CodingJesus and watching his code reviews where he grabs the snippets that PirateSoftware has shown and reviews them.
The video from yesterday where they used the code from PirateSoftware in GameMaker to show a simple rectangle and they got 19 fps for a static image of 800x100 is especially hilarious.
I wouldnt hire an intern with that code. It's the kind of stuff you as as a first year TA
Being fair to the guy, standards are a bit lower in game dev until you start building engines.
Which is why they burn out so often
I bet it would be easier for him to progress on his game if he didn't have to memorize thousands of booleans (or, I mean 0.0f..1.0f) in an arbitrary array to build story points
The code is unmaintainable, it's just a dumpster heap of cold, hard technical debt built up over 10 years of script kiddying. At this point, it's completely devoid of any value
And that's why software design is important, and "shipping fast" much less so. He would've saved a lot of time by not pushing so hard to just throw something out as fast as possible. The "fast to market"-zeitgeist is complete bullshit, and people like this are coding themselves to ruin
I figure a lot of it comes down to habits, if you work in an environment that doesn't care anywhere near as much about building a maintainable piece of software for years and probably doesn't do a lot of code review, then these things don't become automatic.
The use of intern always confuses me for a second, in a German context "intern" usually means someone with literally 0 experience, making the criticism towards Pirate sound even harsher lmao.
It's the same in the US and is how it's being used here. Though intern usually also implies they've gone through college courses so at least have knowledge of the basics, if not experience using them.
In Lithuania interns are mostly 2-4 year students
In Germany it often depends on the context, an intern could be someone that has gone through college but it could also be someone that is still in highschool and just checking out what working as that job is like for a week or two.
Intern's in the US are usually 3rd or 4th year university students gaining experience at a company and serves as a way to get hired without a formal interview. Of course, there are situations that you have to think about. If a student started out with these skills, but showed great improvement at the end of the internship, I would definitely consider hiring. To my main point though, these skills after 1 year of career experience would be laughable, let alone "20."
You probably just can't understand how genius his code is, I bet if he drew a square in ms paint and wrote "I worked at blizzard" you would realize how smart he is!
I found it odd that he's trying to defend it against all accusations.
Maybe the rest of you are programming gods who always write perfect code, but I'm willing to admit I've written plenty of code that could be improved, and had designs that turned out to be bad in practice.
(At least, compared to the examples from him, my code is more readable.)
You find it odd that a narcissist and a bully with superiority complex is defending his code against other people even when they are more experienced? Strange
I have watched very little of Thor, so I don't know much about him, other than he's supposed to be a programmer.
The thing is, he could have side stepped the issue entirely if he didn't say that he wanted the movement to fail and spend so much time trying to dunk on the movement.
He didn't need to agree with the movement at all.
Bro could avoid every single issue he’s had so far just by saying “sorry, my bad”
What is he supposed to do? He's out of mana.
The most hilarious attempt at dodging the responsibility was “for 10 months no one disputed my claims” said this asshat, while actively banning everyone that even tried to mention SKG
When did he cheat in games? That one is new to me.
He looks at his phone twice for extended periods of time in his Outer Wilds "blind" playthrough. He also magically solved the wingdings puzzle in Animal Well "solo" when it took the game community a good amount of time to come up with a solution for it.
Edit: Outer Wilds
I think its Outer Wild ? The game he cheated ? Is Outer Space a thing ?
Outer Wilds was the other one yeah
he was looking up solutions to puzzles in single player games and claiming that he figured it out himself
He was popular on YouTube shorts but got into hardcore world of Warcraft controversy, and then got called out by penguinz0 for opposing a video game preservation movement.
He got called out by several people advocating for SKG, not just charlie
Thor. youtube and ex Blizzard employee. Previously at PirateSoftware. He just got the amount of signatures he needs for his suggestion for stopping games to drop support after their lifetime is up. Something regarding the license agreements/ownership of gaming products.
Everyone was fully on board with his ideas beforehand but suddenly everyone and their dog is digging up tons of stories about him, comments he made and stuff to discredit him as a person.
Though I am totally against his arguments, as I think it is stupid for the entire gaming industry to think their license purchases of games which are basically SAAS products, somehow entitles them as owners or enterprise partners because they have played the game for 5000 hours. So they can make demands of the developers.
But I bet this is a social media campaign for character assassination of a lobby group or maybe just steam. They usually do these viral meme "therapies" whenever there is something they don't like.

Best I can find for rush e reference
Now take all the #defines and nest them in header files a few levels deep.
i just love how this guy became a meme template
I knew dolphins were smart, but I didn't know they had their own programming language.
You never had intro to DOLPHON?
Oh, years ago yeah. But instead of "Hello World", the first program I wrote was "So long and thanks for the fish."
They're the second most intelligent species on the planet after all.
Humans are, obviously, third.
You may not of heard this, but believe it or not he used to work at Blizzard. You wouldn't know though as he never talks about it
And, if you didn’t know, his dad did as well!
He probably doesn't even realize that he was the first, second generation blizzard employee
He barely ever mentioned it but he was the first 2nd generation employee at blizzard. But that is very obscure information you really have to dig deep in his stream catalogue to know this.
...In QA. He apparently has no actual developer experience

awim away awim away awim away
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee it's in the game
Thank you! I want this meme format to take off.
OH GOD, MY TINNITUS IS BACK!!!
There’s Compilation error at e.
boo piratesoftware boo
It makes more sense if you speak the code verbally.
Forget oops coding, phonetic coding is the new vibe.
I didn’t know Chris Barnes wrote code.
Beatbox coding is the new vibe coding.
Programming language: REEEEEEEEE
This is from the international obfuscated C contest.
For anyone wondering the code would be:
```c++
include <iostream>
using namespace std; int main() { while (true) { cout << 'e'; } return 0; } ```
is this some advanced vibing joke im too vanilla to understand?
It's just abusing the cpp preprocessor So when you see "#define e using" it will find all the "e" in the program (not including in the other defines) and replace it with "using"
Esoteric language moment
C? ❌
PHP++? ✅
The best thing to come out of all of this is this sub finally getting original content
Lol, I made this sorta thing once, even using the letter e specifically

Ewwe
Es are good.
who is this guy and why are there so many memes about him
Mmm is True
sans.
Okay so who is this person and where can I watch these videos of terrible code?
Now switch "e" with "blizzard"
Still more readable than og heartbound code
... by gum!
I’m here for dolphinscript
This reminds me of Brainf*** (never coded in it myself, but learned of it when a co-worker was reviewing some coding contest and found someone actually competed in said language)
nah brainfuck is easier to understand than this, as the tokens actually make sense. I love brainfuck :)
Eeeeeeeeeeeee(btw I worked at Blizzard Entertainment)eeeeeeeeeeeee

Dude lives rent free in this sub’s head.
Hey! It's performant and works perfectly fine! I should know, since I've worked in the gaming industry for 20 years.
I bet this compresses better than the original code.
yoooo... is that possible? no way, right?
The compression ratio would be better, but idk if the overall size of the file would be smaller. Having all these Es takes up more characters than using the actual keywords, but having the files content be so similar means a lot can be compressed.
I just remembered the video where someone replaced the entire sound of EA sports intro with just different lengths of a man pronouncing e!
Got you fam
Wtf how does this have 2.8m views
If you meant it as "really low", that's because there are copies of it all over YouTube.
If you meant it as "really high", that's because it's still a pretty niche meme.
That’s incredibly high for something THIS stupid, but you know, internet
You viewed it.

Heh. Nice
