This happens every time your [object Object] gets stolen

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

Idk why anyone would ever create a bare Object without subclassing it

For some reason DHL managed to get a null-string into their system a few years back, which meant that any DHL shipments to me - no matter what the seller had entered - had "null" as the receiver in the system.

Everything else was fine, address and tracking numbers sent to me etc - but I did have a few interesting discussions at pickup locations that wanted to see identification matching the name in the system ...

I would be terrified to open that box

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

I would be terrified not to open that box too.

[-] expatriado@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

i wouldn't risk getting sucked into a null hole

[-] Deconceptualist@leminal.space 9 points 1 year ago

C'mon, we all end up at /dev/null eventually. Just don't gaze long into it or it might gaze into you.

[-] chellomere@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Yeah, the moment you look at it you may experience a null pointer exception

[-] Zachariah@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

you’re worried about nothing

I used to work at a DVD store, and sometimes we'd get a huge box with a single DVD at the bottom, and a ton of those plastic bags full of air to cushion it. When one of those packages arrived, I'd loudly announce, "Thank god! Our air arrived!" Then I'd tear it open and we'd all gasp like we'd been holding our breaths waiting for it.

I hope you post an unboxing video. It could be exceptional…

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago

Do not accept the package! It will cause a segmentation fault!

[-] InnerScientist@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

But we don't reall know until we look in the box

software gore

[-] Zos_Kia@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 1 year ago

There's some decent money to be made in null shipping. For one thing, fuel costs are very low.

[-] janonymous@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Perfect, please put it at the end of my bank account!

[-] sirico@feddit.uk 4 points 1 year ago

Not very functional

[-] lemmy_get_my_coat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Fuckin' love null

[-] ech@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Radiolab has an interesting episode about people having to deal with being considered "Null": https://radiolab.org/podcast/null

[-] ConstantPain@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

So that's why my variable can't be null, you're hoarding it to yourself!

[-] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago
[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago

You can order whatever kind of callperson you want, we won't judge.

[-] percent@infosec.pub 3 points 1 year ago

Congrats! Enjoy your null 🙂

[-] pticrix@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Let's hope you're ready to handle this package. Try your best!

[-] limer@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

This is nothing to worry about

[-] nyan@lemmy.cafe 3 points 1 year ago

So when the package arrives, how many pieces of faulty software needing to point at it will it be encircled by?

[-] Vanilla_PuddinFudge@infosec.pub 3 points 1 year ago

It won't arrive, lets see,... tomorrow. Good! Just around the time I won't be expecting it.
