TF2 coconut-ass tweet
so it went something like this:
Dev 1: Hey, there is this random egg file in here... lets remove that silly thing.
Dev 2: Yeah thats unused, nuke it.
Marketing: Brag about it.
Dev 1: Shit... fails to compile or package and we dont know why...
Dev 2: what changed?
Dev 1: We deleted the egg file... thats it!
Dev 2: Well put it back! 18kb is cheaper than days of troubleshooting through the spaghetti code.
Marketing: Our bad... eggs are good.
Perfect pic for some automatic tests. It is just that those test pics should not had been part of shipment..
What actually happened:
Marketing 1: Those TF2 Coconut Memes sure are reposted a lot on programming subreddits. This is a demographic very interesting to our product.
Marketing 2: Yeah lets invent a similar situation for our product and hope it gets a similar loop of getting reposted every few weeks.

the green one? Man those things rock... but only crazy people spend that much on a grill.
Every time you install opera the price of eggs goes up.
I don’t get the appeal of this browser. Also, what’s their business model?
Data theft is the model
Browser ricing is the appeal
And people still somehow swear by it, even though other than basically RGB taking up CPU usage, it does nothing special.
being "relatable" is their marketing.
Browser ricing is the appeal
What does that mean?
Sunny side up by the looks of it
Gaming Browser 😈🥵
They make most of their money off of high interest loans in Africa. The browser is just the cover.
Gamer.
It's already been reposted enough, now you're lazy ass piling on...
finally my computer can run a bit faster with those saved 18 kb
Junior devs when the joke involving silly image that holds everything together gets reposted for the 100000th time…
(Coconut was first btw)
Imagine all that space saved just for a fried egg. Classic Opera move.
you're the weirdest bot acount ive ever seen.
That's a load-bearing fried egg. You can't just cut that out.
// egg DONT UNCOMMENT THE EGG
I was helping out a friend on his side hustle one summer and this was a project like a dozen people had messed with and added stuff to and the sheer number of comments saying
“don’t delete the empty line of code below this comment or it will break”
“Breaks if you uncomment this line”
“ I’m not getting paid enough to fix this but don’t optimize anything here or it will kill itself”
At that point, you just add a comment "For everyone that attempts to fix this code not believing the above warnings, add yourself to the tally once you fail: 0"
See what number it eventually gets to.
