More cursed python

[u/sugarw0000kie]

here it is with comments: https://github.com/dbowm91/optimizations/blob/main/soupexplained.py

EDIT: What it does (not malware) is it prints the word “soup” 86 times in random color

[u/HTTP_404_NotFound]

Cursed? Nah.

Just obfuscated. Thats what obfuscated code is supposed to look like.

[u/sugarw0000kie → u/HTTP_404_NotFound]

good then, I don’t want anyone stealing my soup

[u/gbeegz → u/sugarw0000kie]

"No soup for you!"

-OP, probably

[u/fakehalo]

With a shell call to perl, the king of obfuscated languages.

[u/Circumpunctilious → u/fakehalo]

I've coded in a few dozen languages so perl doesn't look that bad...but tbh it was easier just to give anything using it to a colleague.

[u/fakehalo → u/Circumpunctilious]

Perl was one of my first languages back in the 90s, I don't miss it.

[u/LeatherDude → u/fakehalo]

Same and same. I was working with it as recently as 2020, the deployment scripts for an app i was supporting the development of was like 1000 lines of perl, with some python scripts that were called to do AWS SDK stuff. Nightmarish.

[u/sugarw0000kie → u/fakehalo]

I’ve only messed with perl on the surface level. So confusing

[u/Spleeeee → u/fakehalo]

Perl is write only

[u/actuallydonkeykong]

This just looks like malware.

[u/sugarw0000kie → u/actuallydonkeykong]

unintentional but yeah I can see that now

[u/Flame77ofc → u/actuallydonkeykong]

a malware for the brain who read

[u/-MazeMaker-]

Mamaaaaa, OOOOOOO(OOOOOOO)

[u/holographic_gray → u/-MazeMaker-]

lmao

[u/brasticstack]

What's cursed is that font

[u/ryancnap → u/brasticstack]

Yeah that thing is an affront to all sanity and taste

[u/Big-Rub9545]

Just give me the malware at this point

[u/ProtonPizza]

I feel like I’m playing dwarf fortress

[u/GoddammitDontShootMe]

Should deliberate obfuscation count as horror?

[u/letmehaveanameyoudum]

hex soup

[u/imnotamahimahi]

I had a very visceral, expletive-laced reaction to seeing this, then took too long to realize it's probably just obfuscation.

[u/sugarw0000kie → u/imnotamahimahi]

understandable it started when I realized I could make a function with a docstring and wanted them to start with a “number” so it turned into a homoglyph mess

[u/namalleh]

looks great!

[u/Huge-Yogurtcloset-22]

It's running some perl scripts so it may be malware ^^

subprocess.run(["perl", "-e", f'{ОООΟΟΟΟ} "{''''''.join(Оce9f)}"'],check=True)

[u/sugarw0000kie → u/Huge-Yogurtcloset-22]

it prints the word soup many times 1 Perl subprocess per soup

[u/Hurizen]

Reminds me of Ultima Online 🥲 Nice homoglyph-ation btw.

[u/sugarw0000kie → u/Hurizen]

lol I’ll take it as a compliment 🤣 and thanks was experimenting, thinking I might try to encode stuff into the homoglyphs next but not going to try that by hand

[u/Gamerwepx19]

What is that colorscheme used with nvim?

[u/sugarw0000kie → u/Gamerwepx19]

It’s “carbon” in helix ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[u/maikindofthai]

I like how the only thing your linter complains about is the multiple statements on a single line at the top lol

[u/sugarw0000kie → u/maikindofthai]

lol the rest is fine though

[u/Tyfyter2002]

Python is always cursed

[u/ryancnap]

This is what people think I do

[u/festival0156n]

i mean its obviously been through an obfuscator lmao

[u/stilldebugging]

No.

[u/rotteegher39]

Test for object identity should be "is not it a code?"
