I love the last panel. He’s waiting for a miraculous bit flip.
Edit: Context and the cosmic bit flip is probalby not true: https://youtu.be/vj8DzA9y8ls
I recognized that scene immediately but didn’t know it was called the “cosmic bit flip”
I don’t know dude. It sounds that this YTer is a bit angry about a possible explanation that sounds reasonable and has no proof to debunk it either.
has no proof to debunk it
Yeah, because you can’t prove a negative. He doesn’t need to debunk it, only to provide an alternative explanation which is more likely. Occam’s razor.
So was it a cart slap? No. Was the device and or cart faulty? No. Was the constructions nearby the cause? No.
We only know that something flipped the bit. So why not spice this freak accident up by saying that cosmic rays were the culprit?
The device was faulty though.

I also bought into the bit flip theory but it was confirmed that the hardware was somewhat faulty which is an infinitely more likely cause than cosmic rays. There’s also the fact that there aren’t any bits that could be flipped which would perfectly reproduce the glitch.
There’s inifinite examples of when occams razor doesn’t hold up though. It’s a useful tool, but by no means an end all be all.
Occam’s razor won’t get you to the correct conclusion for all possible combinations of truth values and evidence, but it is always the best process to follow. You might end up getting new evidence later that means you update your belief, even update it to believe in something which previous evidence meant Occam’s razor lead you to dismiss that conclusion. But it helps you arrive at the best conclusion based on current evidence.
Woah my question is how does these guys exist ? Like rent, food clothes, electricity, water, pc etc. ain’t exactly cheap even if he inherited the house that only takes care of the rent issue. If anyone here is like that do tell me your secrets.
Despite the common assumption that most of these types of people are living at home with Mommy and Daddy I’ve known several programmers or coders who work from home and basically live like this.
They only really leave the house for groceries or shit like that. Honestly outside of the hygiene aspects I’d kill to rarely need to leave my home.
But wouldn’t you mis your friends??? Also that shit ain’t healthy he looks like he’s made of 99%fat .
It’s also a cartoon. Vitamins, supplements, treadmills, stationary bikes, weights, and rowing machines exist.
You don’t say.
The parents that live upstairs.
That dude look above 40 tho … like aren’t they really old by now to support him ?
