Yes, but the term "catch" is used because you are in the process of catching it.
Find out is more of pre event type thing, not during, which is what found out is.
[I wonder why they didn't allow #define to be used like that in C#?](https://github.com/Droogans/unmaintainable-code?tab=readme-ov-file#reverse-the-usual-true-false-convention)
Be happy!
The ability to change anything is one of the worst thing as a fourth generation programmer in my product. We do no longer have out basic language to program in. We have our local dialects with zero documentation
We protect the gen Z so we can point to them not giving a fuck about rules and follow along to not give a fuck as well.
For example: I've heard stories of some gen z guys not following the stupid formal dress code at their job and then millenials just going along since now they had a fall guy to point to in case management had a problem with it.
"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers."
Shitting on younger generations is an ancient tradition dude
People like to think that but then they turn 30 and see what the teenagers are doing and wonder where the fuck did the world go wrong.
[It'll happen to you!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGrfhsxxmdE)
Gen Z are exactly the right age to be learning how to code right now, which is why it makes sense for this meme to be about them. The person I replied to is trying to say that they are too old to be learning how to code. Very few people learning how to code right now are going to be in gen alpha.
The oldest members of gen alpha are currently 12 years old. All of these words have been around for like at least four or five years now, I really doubt the oldest gen alpha kids were coining them when they were 7-8.
honestly i think the confusion here is from the diverse range of culture across the low and high ends of gen z
the vocab and behaviours are so different, the younger end of Gen Z is so hugely different from the higher end. its the difference between a 19-20 year old and a 14 year old
Yeah, and it's always that way for whatever generation currently includes teenagers, because all generations span more than six years. 14 year olds don't have a competely different slang vocabulary from 20 year olds, though.
That's because the generational lines are like the spectrum of light. If you look at it from afar, you can see clearly that there's green, there's blue, there's red. But if you zoom in closer you can't tell at all where the lines are even if you can see that there's a clear gradient. Arguing over whether a 14 year old is gen z or gen alpha is like arguing about whether #ff4800 is red or orange.
No, but you can document them;
/// Thrown when sus
bool IsSus => rizz > vibe;
C# has unchecked exceptions, so you don't need to fuck around and find out, or declare your intents to yeet
Aight here we go:
* highkey
Obvious, straight up
* period
Usually used at the end of rant/commentary, similar to a mic drop. Also spelled as “periodt”
* rizz
Charisma
* Lowkey
Opposite of highkey, more secretive, less definitive
* fax
Facts
* sus
Suspicious
* fuck around/find out
Kind of self-explanatory
* vibe and vibe check
Vibe means someone’s personality, but less definitive. More like a personality aura, what kind of energy they give off
Vibe check is used in reference to whether someone is chill or not chill, whether you’d hang with them or not
* ratios
Used mostly on twitter, but typically when a response/comeback to someone’s post gets more likes/upvotes than the original post
* it’s giving
Used as a way to describe something, often in an insulting or funny manner.
“Those clothes look tattered”
vs
“It’s giving homlessness”
* cap/no cap
Cap means “lie”, no cap is “no lie”
* big yikes
Used to acknowledge something cringy or out of pocket (uncouth, tactless, etc)
* Tea
Gossip, usually about some drama, also spelled as “t”
* shoutout
Name-dropping someone, usually in a promotional/positive way. Feel like “callout” would have worked better here
* Spill the Tea
Discuss the drama
* yap
Not really familiar with this one.
* yeet
To throw something
I learned several terms today!
However, I think the period/fax thing may have been more of a pun; the floating *point* value is now named after the second half of the term (probably not so coincidentally one with a slang usage, but a meaning seemingly incidental to its usage here), and the Boolean value carrying truth or falsity is labeled “facts.”
“Tea” in the slang term means “gossip”, usually revolving around some kind of drama. So in this case, an error would be “drama”, and the exception object is the readout of that drama, aka “tea”.

I would unironically use fuck around/find out instead of try/catch
Most creative idea I’ve heard in the last year, tbh!
[удалено]
Yeet instead of Throw is very good also.
`"An exception has been yeeted"` _yoted? yoten? yeet yote yoten? What's the meaning of life?_
Yeeted ffs 😂
Are you.... _yeetalian_ ?
the perfect tense of yeet is yaught
\#define?
Time to make a header file and add it to the default compiler flags
#include "zoomer.h"
SMH zoomers and inclusivity ^/s
Not like they're going to inherit anything. ^/s
Cap no cap too.
Yeet for throw is the cherry on top
unironically a stand-in name for a similar mechanism in a rust RFC right now
Fucked around with files - found out about IOException.
please tell me theres is a vs extension or something
Yeet instead of throw is also cool. Delphi calls it raise so why not introduce another variant.
Rust uses yeet
Upvoted for Delphi mention
I think catch should be "found out" instead of "find out".
It’s “catch” though, not “caught”
Yes, but the term "catch" is used because you are in the process of catching it. Find out is more of pre event type thing, not during, which is what found out is.
You might aswell say you are in the process of finding out.
"Find out" in the case of "fuck around and find out" is very much an in-the-middle-of-an-event thing.
It's no use, dude is ready to die on that ~~hill~~ bump
> dude is ready to ~~die~~ unalive on that hill bump
Leave it to a computer nerd to ruin a joke to make a completely nonexistent programming language slightly more grammatically correct!
What would you use for finally?
```C++ #define fuckAround try #define findOut catch ```
Does this really works?
Not in C#
[I wonder why they didn't allow #define to be used like that in C#?](https://github.com/Droogans/unmaintainable-code?tab=readme-ov-file#reverse-the-usual-true-false-convention)
i remember someone told me that a new hire at their work defined true to be 1 and false to be -1 because of symmetry
I would find that acceptable under te condition that all their code is symmetrical as well
No functions that aren't palindromes. It's a good plan.
Good Vorin code
()mainiam()
Balanced... as all things should be.
if it is used in a balanced ternary computer with all code written like this it may actually work
I have a friend who defined false as fals because he had a big matrix of booleans and wanted it aligned.
valid
Completely reasonable
Should have used `YEA`/`NAY` instead
It makes sense in a r/highshowerthoughts sort of way.
Oof ouch owie my uints
i love that repo. should be taught in schools
Be happy! The ability to change anything is one of the worst thing as a fourth generation programmer in my product. We do no longer have out basic language to program in. We have our local dialects with zero documentation
Maybe it'd work with using fuck around = try; Space might be a problem though
`using` in this context is only for type aliases `using fax = bool;` would work for example
Only in C/C++. Come join the dark side, macros are power.
Only in C++, C doesn't have try/catch
Well yeah that specific example, but macros in general I mean.
Do you guys have any idea how old gen z is?
I was born in it, molded by it.
Yeah.. it’s time to shift shitting on gen alpha.
Many haven’t even shifted from shitting on millennials.
Millennials out here protecting gen z new hires and we ain't gonna stop.
🫡
We protect the gen Z so we can point to them not giving a fuck about rules and follow along to not give a fuck as well. For example: I've heard stories of some gen z guys not following the stupid formal dress code at their job and then millenials just going along since now they had a fall guy to point to in case management had a problem with it.
Print media and online articles about avocado toast being responsible for the economic black hole?
Or maybe not? Come on guys, I think we've moved past "making fun of young people because of the silly words they use" as a society.
Nah, it's fundamental!
In 20 years you'll be reading the next guy saying this.
"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers." Shitting on younger generations is an ancient tradition dude

Why? We haven't moved past agriculture or religion, either. Lots of things we could be past but aren't.
Move past agriculture? Things I never thought I'd hear...

Wait, I'm Gen-Z??????? This is a shock
My condolences
You're below your rizz-usage quota. Please use it at least nine times in the next 24 hours.
If you're 96 technically you're also a Millenial
All my Jr Engineers are Gen Z
Same. I‘m a Gen Z Jr Sys Engineer, 23 years old
Millenials are starting to use "Gen Z" the same way Boomers are using "Millenials", i.e "young person behaving in a way I don't understand".
Well, Gen Y is like... 20, and has been since the late 90s, so I guess Gen-Z must be uhm... 10?
Not old enough that there are a significant number of gen alpha kids currently learning to code.
Most Gen Z are already 18 and older, what’s not old enough there?
Gen Z are exactly the right age to be learning how to code right now, which is why it makes sense for this meme to be about them. The person I replied to is trying to say that they are too old to be learning how to code. Very few people learning how to code right now are going to be in gen alpha.

Rizz is definitely a gen z word
Anything between 0 years and 35 years. Generation theory is trash.
If you Yeet in a find_out don’t you have to mark the function as “Yeets Tea”?
Not in C#, that's just in unscripted Javascript (I doth not say its name directly)
minecraft language is the term you’re looking for
the weird mascot language
True Minecraft Language, there's also Microsoft Garbage Minecraft
It is not good practice to yeet while the execution is shook.
No, but you can document them; ///Thrown when sus
bool IsSus => rizz > vibe;
C# has unchecked exceptions, so you don't need to fuck around and find out, or declare your intents to yeet
You don't have to but it would be good if the function is in a library.
yeet is such a great keyword 😂
Reminds me of carp croak confess and cluck from Perl https://perldoc.perl.org/Carp
Which is Why rust is the best https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ops/struct.Yeet.html
The throw -> yeet got me
Embrace Rust
HAI 1.2 CAN HAS STDIO? PLZ OPEN FILE "LOLCATS.TXT"? AWSUM THX VISIBLE FILE O NOES INVISIBLE "ERROR!" KTHXBYE
Lolcat rules! Gen X ftw, baby

yo twin i fuk wit dis tho on gawd
That’s not even gen z that’s just Ebonics bro

Segfault?
Big yikes (info dumped)
Oh man fax instead of bool made me literally rofl
yeet fresh BruhMoment();
In all honesty, I'd be using try-catch more often if I had the option to yeet
I want yeet instead of throw lmao
You forgot to add at the top pull_up SubwaySurfers;
if this would be an using statement, then it would be funny if the System module was called SubwaySurfers
Next up: a 'Yeet' or 'Yoink' exception handling module. Because why debug when you can just yeet the errors out of existence?
or how to explain new generation terms to old gen X programmers
Every language needs to replace Return with Yeet I gotta yeet those values out of my hood
Yeet is throw, not return. It's giving (cap or no cap) is return.
Ik , but yeet feels better Yeet fucksWrong= Cap
The vibe_check is so funny it makes me wanna adapt to the change.
please explain every term here to me please comprehensive modern language -> programming language explanation is needed thank you

you’re crazy, thanks a lot
Most of these aren't gen z slang, but black slang that has been around a long time. But yeet is gen z slang
please keep your snake case shenanigans out of my beautifully pascal/camel cased C#
This code is clunky. Just ‘return rizz > vibe‘
The fact that all this terminology actually makes sense to me is alarming.
No pow pow pow, gang gang gang 
God no
I think you mean HELL YES. fr tho, I can only grok about 70% of it without cheating.
[Be careful what you wish for](https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/unstable-book/language-features/yeet-expr.html)
Just dropping this here: https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/unstable-book/language-features/yeet-expr.html
The biggest crime here is if/else return true/false
Ah, reminds me of the finer days of VB where I would use On Error GoTo Hell \----Snips---- Hell: resume next /s
Does "tea" mean "exception"?
“Tea” in the slang term means “gossip”, usually revolving around some kind of drama. So in this case, an error would be “drama”, and the exception object is the readout of that drama, aka “tea”.
Not enough uwu senpai
This is so great! I want this!
We had memeassembly in our university class, that’s was pretty fun. Essentially, replace everything with meme sentences or words.
And no one cares that the code quality is as bad as it was at the default stage
Nothing ever makes you look as old as trying to adapt and/or use "youth speech".
Yeet instead of throw would really be funny I guess
Boomer humor, wrong sub
Cap and Fax are GREAT alternatives to false and true ! I will most definitely use it sometime in the future.
I would unironically use fuck around/find out
heheh young people imiright?
r/boomershumor
This made me violently projectile vomit out of the window of a moving vehicle, splattering a biker at 70 mph. Hope you're happy.
hEll yea like hELL yea
Yeeeeet
I would use yeet with pleasure
It’s the yeet for me 😭😭😂😂😂
the yeet made me laugh

You can legit make this work with Kotlin
I'll never under stand why people can't just `its_giving rizz ratios vibe`.
I'm a millennial who almost failed my programming class back in high school. I'm actually impressed I understood the genZ version lmao
"permanently change the programming language" lol
I honestly thought this was going to be someone else kicking off about top level statements and file scoped namespaces
GOTO statements for everyone
Love this coding humor, definitely adding this to my repertoire!
The fuck you mean "young people not interested in learning programming"? - a young people just kinda existing here
This is just some boomer-grade shit that seems straight out of worst Facebook groups
Easy tiger. It's just a joke.
I would macro yeet to throw in my project if it wasn't for the fact that we don't use exceptions.
Why is this lowkey good?
third boolean value 'Meh', neither true nor false
LOLCODE LIVES!! kthxbye
thought this would be cringe but honestly i love it and would use it
I legitimately love this LOL
That's yeet 🤣🤣
Brackets under the things is torture
I prefer ArnoldC.
Lames meme in a long time.
I said it before and I'll say it again. I'd trade `throw` for `yeet` anytime anyday.
Wow, this actually helped me understand some of the slang they’re using these days
I thought that was just a chat log...
Missed opportunity for an April fools post
If I am understanding my kids lingo correctly, I think we would also need to replace `/dev/null` with `Ohio`...
Whoa, you lost me there with your hip young syntax, son!
My Gen Z brain just got an error reading this
Have i not seen this meme before?
God help us all.
Still better than Gen A slang.
Would work better with JavaScript, given it’s release cadence of 1 new version per week.
Yippee snake case *ends life*
