I’m referring to the sh.itjustworks instance. Which one would be it? Because I’m kind of confused…
Shell it just works
I’ve always read it as “shit just works”. Why would the “sh” be there if we weren’t supposed to read it?
I pronounce it “this post hidden due to instance block settings”.
Any reason you have blocked the instance?
shhhh. it just works.
Imagine a greasy old IT technician coming up to you, putting a finger on your lips and gently saying that after you gasped about the entangled mess of hundreds of Ethernet cables in the server room
“Yes”
Shhhhhhh… itjustworks
Some alternative , nerdy interpretations follow:
sh
: it just works. You don’t needbash
,zsh
,fish
,tcsh
or anything else, just runningsh
will provide a shell environment.sh
: IT just works. Similar to the previous interpretation, but also stating that IT (Information Technology, which is meant to mean the IT department) just works withsh
.
Probably the latter. I’ve seen it abbreviated as SJW, that’s unnecessary don’t do that. Am I old?
I dunno, sjw is a lot shorter than shit just works
Yeah but… SJW means something else lmfao
Shit, justice works.
Why not s.j.w?
For starters, because .w is not a valid TLD, and j.w would be registered in about 50 milliseconds if it ever became one.
I always read it as
ess heych dot it just works
unacceptable
Id put it in the words of god Howard:
It just works https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPN0qhSyWy8Hmmm. What if it’s because the admin was an old school Linux user and never took to bash. “sh. it just works”.
Shhh… we don’t ask such things around here… it just works ™ that way…
Its:
“shhh… nothing is broken, ignore all the bugs and pretend it all just works, mm’kay?”
sh.itjust.works
I always assumed that it was supposed to be ambiguous between them for humor purposes
Why not both?
