Jan

So this is what a runtime error tastes like...

OmegaWolf • 18/09/2022

Mistakes were made

Tir_Amahn • 18/09/2022

Does it mean I'm a nerd if I understood all that?

LionkingCMSL • 18/09/2022

Is Jan becoming the next Dover? Although he isn't talking in code, he sure understands it. :=3

N7: • 18/09/2022 • corretto

Goes to show, machine programming don't work to well on people 😁

Jo Li KMC • 18/09/2022

I've read and re-read that script.

… and I legitimately have no idea how this could have gone so wrong!

The code looks logical, to me…

@Jo Li KMC: It looks like he tried to multi-task rather than follow step-by-step. Rookie mistake.

Treascair • 18/09/2022

Real talk, that's clever!

snowie • 18/09/2022

i took me a sec to realise it was tacos he was making .. script ... :d but, how you bugger that up i dont know .. cook meat(or mince) add wine/beer/water with seasoning then cut up all the other stuff whist waiting for meat to.. thicken. XD gold how did i end up here moment

Why the heck is type of an pepper an array, why does an if on an property block, why are seasonings strings?!

Kirsten Wolfess • 18/09/2022

Uuummmm..... 1: Philly Cheese Steaks, under NO circumstances, should be emitting that color of smoke, though that would also explain why the smoke alarm is going off (or about to)....

2: How did that apple end up on Jan's head?

3: At this point, I wonder if there would be any issues with bringing MREs (Meal Ready to Eat) instead...

Wait , what ?? Never yet seen such a recipe ........... Last panel : calls william Tell

Cooking's easy, theoretically. Right to the point when you need one or more hands more than you have. Or the brain OS capability to use them efficiently.

Personally, I prefer dishes were you just have to throw every ingredient into a big pot in more or less the right order. Or more complicated things someone else makes.

Tir_Amahn • 18/09/2022

@Jo Li I think the failure was his implementation of the multi-threading, not the code itself. CPU crashed when attempting to multi-task. Hardware failure, not software.

I think this is the best example of how fast computers work and how the biological brains use shortcuts for everything.

A computer is able to run those code lines in milli seconds, where as a brain can connect the word "Ingredients" with just a single word of "cheese, pepper, beef"

The only problem with trying to use both at once though, is the brains still wants shortcuts! XD

For ~~years~~ decades, inspired by the (Numerical Recipes)[http://numerical.recipes/] series, I've been telling the uninitiated that programming is somewhat like writing a recipe.

Thank you for bringing that idea to life!

Mnar • 18/09/2022

I'm from Philly...the last panel is painful!! lol

Leak • 18/09/2022

I wonder if Ann Reardon would be interested in scrutinizing this recipe... :D

Random Guy • 18/09/2022

@Kirsten Wolfess Point #2: I think that's actually some variety of bell pepper. You can get a better view of it in Panel 2, just next to the cutting board.

Darren • 19/09/2022

Finally, a recipe that's easy to follow.

Valrus • 19/09/2022

I think his problem was lacking a temperature parameter in the griddle.preheat() function.

Kirsten Wolfess • 19/09/2022

@Random Guy: You're right. It is a red pepper. But, the question still remains as to how it ended up on Jan's head. XD

Silverwolf • 19/09/2022

North Philly recipe, South Philly recipe, and now Apocalyptic Philly recipe.

Tir_Amahn • 19/09/2022

@Kirsten Same way the tomato ended up on Jesse's head last week?

Viqsi • 20/09/2022

I don't see the import statements that show where all these objects are coming from. I are confuse. :(

WB101 • 20/09/2022

Is that a pathing error on Jan's head? (I'm not wrong...)

Dawn the DrMooID: Moo! hides (Translation: EEEK!) }8O

asebw • 21/09/2022

Me thinks the program was not properly debugged...

Gota • 22/09/2022

There is a bug in the code though. The peppers are only removed from the griddle if they are soft after being put on, it should be a while loop to cook the peppers on the griddle until they are soft.

Jan • 23/09/2022

@Gota Finally someone noticed! XD

FurriaK • 15/10/2022

For the entire life i wondered, "how do computers make stupid glitches?" Now i saw the truth: they try human ways of corner-cutting..
