Really? Making fun of average people not knowing what AWS is, this is considered programming humor now? https://xkcd.com/2501/
I think it's making fun of the person doing the explaining, because they are overwhelming someone with an overly intense explanation.
Yeah you are right I misunderstood the meme, thank you.
No, the fun part is them trying to understand what aws is, because why should they know what that is? Nobody outside of devops knows how it works.
Its actually making fun of our own culture, talking about these things as if others just know what they are.
When my car mechanic starts talking to me what they want to fix, I dont understand anything and just nod along.
Oh I can see that in the meme now, thank you for explaining the joke.
In my defense some of the top comments really didn't sound like that.
Lemmy is a confusing place. I sometimes get reported for trolling for just stating an opinion and sticking to it despite others not agreeing with it. That is trolling I guess. :)
