I am lost. programmer memes are next level

TLDR, the red light cameras actually read license plate numbers. So when they read the code it executed the command which dumped the entire database of saved information. So depending on how often they back it up, thats a lot of fines the city isn’t going to be able to collect.

Spooky Shopkeeper: The price may be more than you expect to pay.

Me: Yes, I know how US taxes work, too.

Shopkeeper, increasingly exasperated: I’m trying to tell you that I’m evil and offering these wares with no regard for the harm they will do!

LGBT Zoology Pride!

As June is pride month I thought I’d post some animals that colourations match LGBT pride flags to celebrate evolution’s rainbow in my own nerdy science way.

Previous flags here: Lesbian | Gay |

Mwanza flat-headed Rock Agama (Agama mwanzae)

Endemic throughout Tanzania, Rwanda, and Kenya, the male’s bright colouration of pink, red and blue mean that these lizards are also commonly called the spider-man agama.

Thunderbolt Crayfish (Cherax pulcher)

The thunderbolt crayfish is a proprietary variant bred from two different species from the Cherax genus resulting in the bright blue, pink and purple colouration, which make them popular pets. Species in the Cherax genera are found typically in Australia and New Guinea.

Lilac-breasted roller (Coracias caudatus)

Found throughout sub-Saharan Africa and the southern Arabian Peninsula, these birds are considered the (unofficial) national bird of Kenya. 

Flower Beetles (Smaragdesthes africana oertzeni)

Smaragdesthes africana are a common beetle species found throughout the  afrotropical region, more commonly known as flower beetles due to the range of various shades of iridescence throughout subspecies. The subspecies oertzeni is a strikingly purple, blue and pink colour.

Superb Leafwing (Fountainea nessus)

These striking butterflies occur in the eastern Andes (from Colombia to Bolivia) with the males forewings baring these bright pink-purple bands overlaid with a bright blue sheen. The underside of their wings are patterned brown in order for them to cryptically resemble their surrounding environment such as tree trunks and leaf litter. 

hat tip to @13lizardsinatrenchcoat for these beautiful pride animals!
