So I just looked it up, YAML is a programming language, that is “often used for writing configuration files.” Then I checked the group this was posted on, makes a lot more since now.
Comment on A lot of YAML
Lophostemon@aussie.zone 11 months agoFor a start, there’s no such thing as “YAML” so it’s not funny. If the ‘punchline’ is a random gibberish word that no one understands then it’s not funny. That’s generally the rule.

It’s not a programming language.

YAML is also a recursive acronym. It stands for YAML Ain’t Markup Language.

Wait… I thought it was “yet another markup language”
Is this another fucking Bearenstein/Mandala reality split?

It used to. Wikipedia source with sources.

I just had to go look that up. Yet Another just seems to make more sense, which is why I think a lot of people think that’s what it stands for.

Sounds like Lisp.
Lophostemon@aussie.zone 11 months ago
Nope. I’ve never heard of it and I’m not a programmer so therefore it’s triple-not-funny. I’m doubling down on this hill because… just because.

You’re on ProgrammerHumor… Why do you expect the jokes to cater to you if you’re not a programmer?

It came up in my ALL feed. I can’t help but react if you all shove your sick lifestyle choices in my face.

The UX for knowing in which community something has been posted in is not very good here, I feel a lot of people have problems getting the context if you don’t spell it out in the title.
