Gender variability as declarations in JavaScript: const / let / varMeme is based on Jordan Peterson "approival / disapproval" format, him being a conservative who disapproves of gender fluidity.

Non-binary, cis, non-genderfluid
Ooh or "gender = null"
That would be agender.
It's not a gender tho... Or is it?
vsauce music starts playing
Good point!
Null was a mistake (as per what quite a few people say) XD
Don't know if some actual thing saying "undefined" explicitly would/could be any better, though.
There are two kinds of "null" that are often called out as mistakes, you may be thinking of. One is the null reference, as found in languages like C and Java, which Tony Hoare, who created it for ALGOL back in the sixties, has called his "billion dollar mistake". The other is the three-valued-logic of null in SQL, which is almost as bad.
There's nothing wrong with "null", necessarily, in other contexts, although I do think a more clear name for whatever it means in any given context might be better.
That's 0.1 ~2~ so it's still binary
Checkmate atheist
Edit: the 2 is supposed to be a subscript
Now write it in IEEE754 without using the internet.
I can't comment anything without the internet. Checkmate atheist.
I didn't say you had to write it on Lemmy. Write it on paper.
I did. Prove me wrong
The third bit is wrong. Prove me wrong.
Yeah that's what i meant, well...
I guess binary is better interpreted as a boolean than being actually written in a binary base.
They forgot what it's like coding in binary i tell you that!
