I guess you had to be there. I can see why someone might find this funny, but honestly, nothing is that funny. Some behavior in Javascript is surprising, but not that surprising.

#72why do i have to signup to know who much it costs to subscribe. I think it should be apparent on the home page. EDIT ok my bad it was mentioned on the screencasts homepage
It's on the front page, but at the bottom. DAS is a small one-man business, so I did the design myself (and I'm not a good designer). Sorry about that. :)

It's jsc (comes with Webkit) - it's present on Mac OS X by default in /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaScriptCore.framework/Versions/A/Resources/jsc You can just do: sudo ln /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaScriptCore.framework/Versions/A/Resources/jsc /bin/jsc To be able to invoke it directly from the command line.
Thanks, I'll look how to get this working on linux.
My Chrome install on Windows has the same thing. I push ctrl+shift+c to load the developer tools, and click on console and it's a very similar tool to what he was using.

#74Guess I'm not a hacker? It's like watching a rerun I've seen twice over with the laugh track turned up to 11 (just to clarify, someone said it was a repost but I haven't seen it before).
I didn't laugh because I was so worried that if I didn't laugh I wouldn't be considered a hacker :(

#75Array(16) That's 15 commas, not 16.
Handy way to make some padding:
function pad(n, c) { return Array(n+1).join(c); }
// pad(6, "-") === "------"Re: Wat

I didn't laugh until the end. Partially, I'm sure, because I didn't want to lie to myself by intentionally laughing just to feel like a hacker. But when I saw NaNNaNNaNNaN...(etc) coming, I couldn't help it.

Yeah count me in the "not a hacker, I guess" crowd, this stuff isn't very funny.
Right. It was marginally informative, the meme pics were chuckle-in-my-head worthy but what really got me laughing was that it's on the front page of HN. Its so sad you have to laugh to keep from crying. Anyway, guess I'm not a hacker either.
Not even close to as sad as the fact that two most upvoted comments and their children (pun intended) are just a bunch of pompous whining.
Re: Wat
#78that weird behavior of javascript can actually be used for xss attacks, by being able to assemble strings. for example:
(![]+[])[+!+[]]

#79$ php -r '::' Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM Wat
I first saw that error in a pre-Google world. It took a few days for me to figure out what it meant.

Really? You don't think this is funny at all? Maybe it's because I'm in my mid twenties, but I think my father would even find this funny and he knows little to none about programming.
My (non programmer) wife found this hysterical. It reinforced her belief that programming is stupid. :)
