EnderMB,

Always good to see Jon Skeet get some love. I’d love to know in terms of quantity just how many people he’s helped over the last decade or so.

thedirtyknapkin,

if we count the number of people who have used products with code helped by him; we’re probably around 50% of all humanity by now. at least…

Honytawk,

I just wonder how many he would have saved if he didn’t write the language in the first place

revlayle,

wat

Skeet did not write or create c#

Daxtron2,

Literally every time I’ve ever posted a question on SO that’s related to .NET, Skeet comes to my rescue.

magic_lobster_party,

He has used this comic as his profile pic on Twitter and StackOverflow for quite a while.

Rust:

Cannot move princess out of castle which is behind a shared reference

marcos,

Just clone the princes and get on with your day.

It will also complain that trying to break into the castle is unsafe, so you have to tell it that you know.

“Alright, but you better be outside of a properly locked up and OSHA-compliant castle with the princess by the time I get back, or I’m not compiling”

And then you do that, but you miss a smoldering ember from one of the castles torches, and everything including the horse and princess catches fire. Next time, pick an escape plan that only requires unsafe for the drawbridge.

There’s a totally safe way to do it too, I guess, but it involves building a series of replacement castles, and it’s also totally ugly and sinfully slow.

Rodeo,

That just means you designed your castle unsafely.

Hazzia,

Skip the castle and call the princess directly!

magic_lobster_party,

You can’t rescue the princess, but you can borrow her.

cactusupyourbutt,

…good enough.

Ill get her back in 3 minutes

Rust: You declare the castle type as unsafe and then search for a crate with a rescue_princess function. You discover the princess you rescued is a femboy wolfkin named Pawws. You now have pubic lice and an inexplicable smug sense of superiority.

scratchresistor,

Python:


<span style="color:#323232;">from Rescues import Princess
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Princess.rescue()
</span>

<span style="color:#323232;">from Castle import Princess
</span>

Done

bob_lemon,

map(lambda princess: princess.rescue(), [castle.get_princess() for castle in castles])

scratchresistor,

Don’t forget to keep your return values…

rescued_princesses = [{“princess”: princess, “rescued”: princess.rescue()} for princess in [castle.get_princess() for castle in castles]]

Swift: Apple releases a new version of the castle and deprecates the princess before you finish your implementation

turing_spider574,

the author did another comic with swift and it’s pretty much what you said lol

I love the Lua one because it’s so true, LuaJIT is magic and Mike Pall is the only one who understands it as its creator.

The Python one should have been an environment joke.

Nugelz,

Why’s this look so poo on my phone?

MaliciousKebab,

Might be the client. I use eternity and it looks OK on my phone.

Thank you that fixed it!

Unforeseen,

Also good in Connect on my phone

Sync manages these long vertical images the best.
