    My goto phrase when I want to troll people: “The creators of python called it that because they wanted a name that started with P, as a nod to its predecessor, Perl.”

    It’s not exactly Ken M level, but post that anywhere and the amount of angry futile typing can faintly be heard around the world as other geeks start fuming.

      I could feel a disturbance in the force 2 hours ago. Now I know it was precisely when you wrote this comment.

      My goto troll-nods are all “subtle” which always makes me laugh harder and my trollees groan louder.

      What a stupid reason to get angry.

      Especially as everything needs to be rewritten in Rust anyways
