Too bad about http://www.dicker.com (surprisingly non-NSFW link)

I laughed so hard when someone had this in his resume...

No way, haha! Wait till they hear about my lubernetes prowess! (This is actually a typo I often make, k being next to l)

Doesn't have quite the style of http://pythong.org [NSFW] (Didn't think to mark it until people commented, and technically there's no nudity, but if you are looking at it and someone passes your desk they'll THINK there is nudity, and if you are actually at work I think that passes the bar.)

SFW. But this (probably) won't get me promoted!

This reminds me of like 15 years ago when python.com was a porn site. Now it’s just a redirect to some sort of cam splash page.

What's weird to me is that this seems like a totally implausible accidental misspelling, which just shows how differently people type, I guess. I can see that 'i' and 'u' are adjacent on the keyboard, but if you touch-type, they belong to different fingers, and I can't see how I'd transpose them while getting all the other letters right. If my right hand were shifted over by a key, I might get 'gutguv' or 'gotjim', I…

It happens more often than one might think. I know I've typed "guthib" at least a few times in the last decade or so that I've been using github, and coincidentally I just caught myself mistyping "decade" as "dedace". I pressed all the right keys, but in the wrong order.

I guess that packets from the brain sometimes suffer from a kind of race condition as they arrive at the fingers.

Maybe it's related to fact that we're surprisingly good at reading words with teh lettres shffuled aorund. Perhaps my brain is trying to type a word at a time, instead of individual letters, so the packets go out in parallel. Perhaps the last point has something to do with the fact that my native language is Korean, where a word is written as a compact two-dimensional arrangement of symbols rather than a simple sequence of symbols. I dunno, it just happens a lot.

Doesn't seem that implausible given that we can read words just by reading the first letter and last letter, even if the letters in the middle are in the wrong order. We take words as lump-sum abstract objects instead of focusing on each of the letter.

No it's not. EDIT: It is not NSFW. If you think this is NSFW, then I don't think you should be spending any time on the internet. The internet is not safe for you.

It really depends on the degree to which your co-workers and clients lack a sense of humor.

For example, in the early 00's I was working for a company that built a lot of CMS sites. One of the test images my co-worker used was Yoda driving a go-kart. A customer got offended, so we were instructed to use really boring images that just had the word "test" on them.

No it's not nsfw? Now I'm really confused, can I very paste this into slack #random or not?

I could at my job. My company is 80% women. They'd find it hilarious. EDIT: Actually, just checked. They did find it hilarious.

Women aren't the arbiter of what is sfw or nsfw.

I'm curious why you jumped to "women" here, when they aren't relevant to the conversation. Do you think women need to be protected from unsafe imagery at work, or "nsfw" is designed to protect women?

I don't understand why people upvote this garbage. Do they find it funny? Or interesting?

I'm normally in favour of lighthearted stuff (to a degree), but in this case I agree with you. It seems a bit too low effort to warrant the high number of upvotes...

They said "nsfw", not "not safe for me" or "this is porn". They're making a comment about workplace conditions, not their own viewpoints.

You aren't badass for "being cool" with this imagery.
