Unless it is in a vacuum, the glass is full.
50% water, 50% gas mixture.
Topologist: The glass is full of glass. Everything else is on the outside.
no, I actually wanted it empty
I can’t believe no-one else has posted this yet.

If it were a vacuum the water would quickly boil away with any remaining turning to ice.
It wouldn’t freeze unless you drop the temperature as well.
Who told you about hot vacuums? That was a secret!
The phase transition from liquid to gas absorbs all the thermal energy in the remaining liquid and causes its temperature to drop to freezing point. You are familiar with this effect if you have used a tank of compressed gas; the tank gets cold as you release the gas and you might see condensation on the tank up to the liquid level.
But then the remaining ice in the glass sublimates anyway.
Who are you who are so wise in the ways of science?
Just some jerkface.

Senior engineer: the glass is self documenting.

No :(

IT support chatbot when the client asks how to get an empty/full glass to display: You’re absolutely right! I couldn’t have said it better myself: This is a glass. 😊🥛
// This might be a glass Glass* glass = dynamic_cast<Glass*>(container);Commented out glass is certainly a problem (if it’s not only a comment) as the instance of object is created elsewhere but there’s some more problems in the code:
-Software tester removes the glass but the water still stands there in the shape of the glass.
-QA tries to pour the water in to the glass but water doesn’t register and the glass doesn’t fill.
-Performance testing notes that rendering the glass needs some optimization since the glass doesn’t fill over 50% before being out of memory.
-Junior programmer can’t get the glass to run since the liquids library wasn’t locked down and got an incompatible update.
-Automation testing results in to a crash with a screenshot and logs that point out that glass frontend use the old version of the glass backend API leading the glass to freeze.
-External testing points out that there’s a bug in the glass but they can’t identify it.
Feel like we’re missing an overflow joke here!
Or something like: // initialise a glass using max water value as indicator that glass is unused
Marketing: the glass is perfectly dimensioned to transport that amount of water without spilling anything! Buy yours now for a discount! Terms and conditions may apply.
Capacity = 0.5
Birb: How the fuck is water doing that °v°
It’s not a glass, it’s the
hydrationContainerManagerObjectFactory
Not to be confused with the
hydrationContainerManagerTypeFactory
Which is the template
Do developers still code in such a manner?
Some of those patterns were actually good design, until everyone went overboard with them. Now the pendulum has swung the complete opposite way and there’s a ton of duplicate code often generated from actual templates.
you mean
glass Glass;which is almost worse than stringing together random fancy words.
(Edit: added backticks for that nice mono font)
You forgot the AbstractHydrationManager
That’s not a good comment. What it is should be clear from the naming and context. A good comment explains the why when that is not obvious:
// This glass is at 50% capacity because we don't want it to overflow if it rainsAnd in 5 years you will wonder why the glass is under the rain because someone didn’t put that in the specifications.
Inevitably whatever is under the glass gets wet anyway… because it’s raining.
A software tester walks into a bar
Runs into a bar.
Crawls into a bar.
Dances into a bar.
Flies into a bar.
Jumps into a bar.And orders:
a beer.
2 beers.
0 beers.

a lizard in a beer glass.

“qwertyuiop” beers.
Testing complete.A real customer walks into the bar and asks where the bathroom is.
The bar goes up in flames.
Opportunist… “It’s an empty glass. I drank it while you were arguing.”
Scientist… “it’s half empty because the water is slowly evaporating.”
