Interesting, will take a look.

Could you explain the joke

Strange judging only by how good they are with computers. They might have some other valuable skills that gets them paid highly.

Off to spread 5G 40MHz conspiracy theories.

I thought “bricked up” means having a hard on.

You can view some profiles (authwall for others) and some show all content (tried it out with bbc and forbes), others drop relatively recent content while some others only show ancient content from a year or more ago.

The latter two were when I tried opening the twitter pages for some smaller podcasts I follow.

I took the lambdas in the username to mean theyre a functional programming fan, pretty sure they’re joking.

Cab someone explain for non-Americans?

Forget “30 or 13”, the kid should be posted on “90 or 9”.

I hear the whispers of !bandnames@lemmy.world call me, do you?

Jokes necessarily often leave behind details to work.

Here the whole joke is pointing out similarities we see are forced.

And besides, it’s obvious the author was intentionally being “wrong”, otherwise we’d be suggesting the author assumed the thought-experiment was monkeys who knew language, intentionally typing out great works. That’s a pretty useless situation to make up, it doesn’t suggest anything interesting.

You’re right, but it isnt trying to actually argue that, its a joke.

Sphinx cats though?

I did post it as a joke. Note how I started my comment with “I think their point is”, that isn’t my view :)

There’s also difference between pretending to miss for a joke that dividing things into quartiles necessarily means a bottom 25% exists (what the meme does). And noting that it’s weird failing people based on how they do compared to others and not if they actually actually learn (me suggesting what the user JackGreenEarth was probably trying to get at).

I think their point is that you could have people in the bottom quartile who learned what they are expected to, are capable, but are failed anyway because of how they compare to others.

(Assuming curved tests really work like that, never bothered reading the pretty long grading policies)
