I am not a programmer, but read enough HN to have gotten the reference. To the people saying the explanation ruined the joke, I’d ask you to take a minute to consider whether you viewed it as a joke or a shibboleth. If only those who know ‘got it’ and explaining it ‘killed it’, then isn’t it by definition a shibboleth? In-group language is exclusionary by definition. Is this a good thing? |
