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

    Pretty sure it’s Yet Another Markup Language

      Nope.

    Wait… I thought it was “yet another markup language”

    Is this another fucking Bearenstein/Mandala reality split?

        Whoa — I can’t believe YAML’s 22 years old

        That’s interesting!

      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.

        And because that was the original name. They retconned YAML Ain’t.

  Ah yes, lists of lists is my favorite programming language.

    Sounds like Lisp.

  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.
