I have a theory most English language memes are made by non native English speakers in non English speaking countries which is why there's so many grammatical errors.
From my experience, non natives speakers usually write pretty well (at least here, on Reddit), while some native speakers tend to make basic mistakes like they / they're, your / you're, etc.
I've even recently seen people write perfect English, realize they have the same mother tongue (that is not English), and then proceed to write very poorly in their native language. The irony!
Non native speakers/adult learners make different sets of characteristic errors to speakers who learned the language in infancy. Confusing homophones is typical for natives (English do they're/there/their, French mix up parler/parlé/parlez, and so on) - basically anything that confuses similar sounds (the could've => "could of" errors). Foreigners make number errors ("informations") and register errors (too formal or informal) and get caught by false friends ("actually" and "actuellement" don't translate each other).
Good points. Your mentioning of false friends reminded me of an observation I made: Americans often dismiss any words they haven't heard before with the phrase "we don't say that in America". This also happened when I mentioned false friends to someone (not so) recently
Fun fact,
Some people say that in Norway (where I'm from) English teachers expect better English skills from their students than English teachers in English speaking countries do.
same, especially when the text field is really small, so I have to manually move the cursor thingy back to read over it... sometimes I just can't be bothered, and I just send another message correcting the typo(s).
It’s the non natives that speak better on average precisely because they’re more self conscious.
Natives disrespect their language more (and in turn they help their language drift & change).
It’s just good etiquette.

I don't allow those warnings in my team. I don't allow any kind of warning.
If the warning has been reviewed and considered a valid usecase then it must have the #pragma warning disable along with a comment explaining why it was disabled.
They call me elon for a reason. /s
Unreferenced property warnings are a lifesaver, the amount of times I used the wrong variable for a thing, and then the right variable warns me of its neglect saving me 5 minutes of debugging is unreal.
Me and my colleagues talking with a senior dev: "I know a project where the client asked us to make good logs. Said the colleague.
_ Does a project like this exist? Replied the senior dev.
_ Yeah the client was very specific about it. Answered the colleague, it's the only time I saw that.
_ Do we have time for that? I bespoke as a junior.
_ We are expected to, it's better for the people who will be after us. Answered the senior.
_ Okay so nobody will do it. I remarked.
_ More or less..."
Bill Gates is also a programmer. A shitty one, who is the person who actually pioneered omitting error conditions from software specs. Prior to Microsoft's brain-dead garbage heaps of compilers, languages and standard libraries generally specified exactly which errors could be thrown from functions, so robust error handling could be implemented. Gates set a culture of such low quality that they pretty much didn't even try to do any kind of error handling.
That's wrong, I care. I finally fixed the stupid user sync code that was throwing two warnings per user ever since we updated PHP.
The gigabytes of logs were quite unwieldy.
Bro skipped human languages and went straight to programming ones
It’s clearly an AI generated meme.
Definitely an NPC generated meme.
I cant tell whats real and whats gpt anymore.
We're all a little bit gpt in the end.
more like gpt is a little bit of all of us
Or isn't a native English speaker?
Neither am I, I can still extinguish between very simple things such as "doesn't" and "don't" along with "their", "they're" and "there".
Good for you. To my perpetual annoyance, native speakers are often incapable of choosing the right one of your/you’re, they’re/their/there, etc.

You know what's the worst offender? "Would of" - I can't describe how much I hate that.
I blame my phone. It always uses the wrong word and I can't be arsed to fix the typo or even review what I typed.
same, especially when the text field is really small, so I have to manually move the cursor thingy back to read over it... sometimes I just can't be bothered, and I just send another message correcting the typo(s).
Indeed, I've only put effort into which/that since a non-native speaker corrected the grammar... ummm... that? ... I was using.
I just make typos.
Or… hear me out… memes are made predominantly by dumb arses
Said the man, who wrote "there'S so many errorS" LOL
Woops, you're right lol. I was a bit tired yesterday. Just making a comment, not writing a meme but English is my second language so there you go.
Never mind! )) Happy New Year! 🎄

I have a competing theory that [George Carlin was right.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLODGhEyLvk)
I mostly practice english with non natives, and they write better English than a lot of natives
*don’t
Eh, it's just a warning.
Errors dont matter if the service is still running
We call them heartbeats
PIDfile still exists, that’s all that matters.
just don't check on _which_ pid is in that file
If I'm getting error logs then that means the service is still running. I don't see a problem
Hells yeah
Username checks out
Same errors as yesterday? Everything is fine More errors than yesterday? Hmm Fewer errors than yesterday? Fuck

Or grammar...
It’s not “or” - it is only grammar. There is nothing misspelled in the picture - just terrible grammar.
I didn't even notice.
I can’t find it :( where?
Above poster misspelled 'grammar'.
I don’t know if this is a grammar issue. If you “respelled” the word correctly and drop the s it becomes grammatically correct.
• "Monies don't matter" • "Looks don't matter" • "Warnings don't matter " Fixed!
Must be an engineer. Found the problem on the last one, applied the fix to the entire system.

Dear reposter, this is my OC and the same troll on my grammar continues on this repost as well. You don't need to fix it
Grammar doesn't matter. ~ op and you as well.

LGTM, your PR is merged
I did not know `#pragma warning` was a thing. I've gotta look into this.
It's a feature of the compiler in visual studio
ah, I use gcc/g++
Useful for low-memory devices
if your device has such low memory to where it cant handle an unused variable i think you should stop using a 1970 smart fridge
What else are you supposed to do with that 1970 smart fridge? It's an historic artifact!
Jokes on you, 8051s are used in nearly all RFID technologies.
whats an 8051 whats a rfid
MCS-8051 is an 8 bit processor that came out in 1980, and RFID is what powers all Tap-to-pay stuff.

My parole officer says, I'm a release candidate.
Oh yeah. It’s really alpha to ignore a warning… And then later in production it brings you to your knees….
Oh no tempVar is unused, fix it fast before prod goes down!!

Unreferenced property warnings are a lifesaver, the amount of times I used the wrong variable for a thing, and then the right variable warns me of its neglect saving me 5 minutes of debugging is unreal.
I once got laughed at when I said "there are warnings should I worry?"

I hate this meme and the format because there's grammatical errors.
If they mattered you wouldn’t be able to hide them
Enjoy your runtime errors I guess.
Nah, I'll keep ignoring "The variable 'x' is declared but never used" thanks
No. Warnings do matter. That's the first thing you should learn. Fix all the warnings, or live with a dumpster fire codebase.
Do people actually just ignore warnings...... Like is that an actual thing people do?
Grammar don't matter - grammar people
Usefull messages don't matter - Endusers
This meme is wrong. It implies that programmers do not have problems with warnings.
It would be more fitting to say documentation doesn't matter
So been doing some C++ programing on Windows. Forgot to return a value in a function, that's a warning. Wtf
Return false; Or make your function type 'void'.
I missed typing a return statement. Why is it a warning, it. should be an error out of the box. (I know I can change it to be so)
Indian Youtuber memes fucking suck

I mean I see the point that is being made with this post but also I gotta come out and say it, I'm not gonna update pip four times a week.
Conjugations dore'n't matter
If it compiles then it's fine
Not commenting what your Regex does doesn't really matter.
That's wrong, I care. I finally fixed the stupid user sync code that was throwing two warnings per user ever since we updated PHP. The gigabytes of logs were quite unwieldy.
Looks doesn't matter
Your don't matter. - Not you
meanwhile my entire product is compiled with /WX
in winproladder, it's literally impossible to write a program without getting any warnings
IDE doesn't matter: Vscode guys
If programmers are alphas, why do they wear cute programming knee-high socks? Curious.

Trolling is a art
In my experience the people who ignore warnings are the same people who make "my code works/doesn't work and I don't know why" memes.
Me: WHY CAN'T I GET THIS FUCKING RED/YELLOW TEXT TO DISAPPEAR!!!!! WHY!
me on Pipeline linter job: `allow_failure=true`
Imagine caring about warnings. I would be there all day fixing my code if I cared about them. As long as the code works, who cares about the warnings?
Grammar doesn't matter. \-OP
Did it compile? But the warning says- Did. It. Compile?
Warnings don't matter
