Worst episode in a while?

the continual failures are getting a bit exasperating, but im excited to see how Big Head is gonna back his way into success again.

when does this season end? I was dropping my HBO streaming subscription for a few months and was going to pick it back up and binge the whole season, but you are tempting me into jumping back in now
especially if there's more Big Head content
― μpright mammal (mh), Monday, 23 May 2016 15:20 (eight years ago) link
prob the most Big Head content since the first season!

Something about this show seems very Entourage to me: the quick reversals of fortune, the comic relief from the programmer equivalents of Turtle and Drama, the 'agent,' the token females. That said I enjoy it very much...
― calstars, Monday, 23 May 2016 16:00 (eight years ago) link
That's been the problem for the last couple of episodes, they need to draw out these situations a little longer. The HD bit this week was a bunch of setup for a five second punchline. I expected more hijinks.

i feel like they are interested in shortening time between plot developments which leaves a lot of potential comedy feeling like it goes by the wayside but also makes it feel like there's a real purposeful meanderingness to the plot lol

otmfm, it wd be nice to see the plot progress just a little w/o the excruciating tension of constant and often improbable fuckups

I was wracked with nervousness this week because I expected everything to turn terrible again before the end and they were running out of time
So now I feel worried about how soon Richard will fuck things up as CEO next week
mike judge may secretly be my favorite comedy creator. i am wondering how hands on he is on an episode by episode basis
iirc from a radio interview, he is in the room for breaking story, then goes back to Austin for the writing & pre-production periods, flying in for the weeks he directs episodes
― glandular lansbury (sic), Tuesday, 24 May 2016 01:37 (eight years ago) link
that sounds about right. the bones are solid but the post milch hbo method of kick the can forward first, creator's great plan second means that these shows are uneven in terms of character development even tho' they maintain flavori dunno if that's a criticism; it's amazing they have such a high batting average

Tbh, this is pretty much the theme of so much good TV these days. "The Excruciating Tension of Constant and Often Improbable Fuckups" is like a subgenre unto itself.

Zach Woods nailed the response, too. Small moment, but maybe the funniest thing the show has done
― Evan R, Tuesday, 31 May 2016 00:18 (eight years ago) link
a lot of this show's best moments are small things w/ delivery and brief asides that you can miss if you blink too quickly. the plot's constant motion is a plus, IMO, for delivering this kind of stuff

this was so great, i think jared's my favorite character. loved that russ was right - this guy fucks.

he seems so sad + damaged :(
― Mordy, Tuesday, 31 May 2016 19:08 (eight years ago) link
damaged yes, but sad? no. he is consistently the most optimistic character on the show.
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 31 May 2016 19:10 (eight years ago) link
but in a v sad way - or maybe he's not sad but he makes me feel sad

this episode made me think about how sad it must be to a be a single woman in silicon valley

lol true
― balls, Tuesday, 31 May 2016 19:32 (eight years ago) link
not really. theoretically i like the idea of using a tab and letting the editor decide, but in practice it doesn't work out so nicely. take the following example where tabs are used to set the indentation level and spaces for alignment; when changing the tabsize from 4 to 2, we get misaligned code:
1 int f(int x, 1 int f(int x, 2 --->..int y) { 2 ->..int y) { 3 --->return g(x, 3 ->return g(x, 4 --->--->--->.y); 4 ->->->.y); 5 } 5 }
also lol at the show for bring this so-called "holy war" to the mainstream, i've already gotten texts from non-programmers asking which i side with
― bitcoin bajas (diamonddave85), Tuesday, 31 May 2016 19:55 (eight years ago) link
The answer is to not change the tab size (4 spaces forever!). And don't bother with newlines in an argument list when your variables are single-character.
― nickn, Tuesday, 31 May 2016 20:29 (eight years ago) link
TABS
― μpright mammal (mh), Tuesday, 31 May 2016 21:14 (eight years ago) link
if you have a whitespace aligned language then spaces are the only choice. this is important.

Probably Jared.
