(title added for lemmy). original text:
😂

Image description: In the first panel, there is a text box that says "THE SPACECRAFT MADE A HARD LANDING AND CRASHED. WE LOST ONE BILLION DOLLARS! I WANT TO KNOW WHY THIS HAPPENED!!!" In the second panel, a scientist says "UM, SIR! I THINK I'VE FOUND THE REASON!" There is a computer screen in the background that shows code with the line "if isLanding && false (".

The image description is missing the joke by not describing the comment above the function. Also, i feel like the names of the 3 functions would finally make the description worthwhile.

I wouldn't even know where to start, by only reading the image description.

Sorry, idk why this is giving me a hard time.

This (almost) just happened to the IM-1 lander: spacenews.com/im-1-lunar-lander-tipped-over-on-it…

The lasers, though, did not work, and engineers determined that a physical switch — a safety measure on the ground because the lasers are not eye-safe — was not flipped before launch.

I don’t care too much if the test suite turns red. But I do halt the deployment if grep TODO.*BEFORE.*DEPLOY finds something.

This is so unrealistic. False would be first to save a cycle and avoid any possible side effects in the rest of test.

Great meme template! Put whatever text and images you want in the first panel. Leave the middle panels unchanged. Change the screen in the last panel to show the punchline.
