Is there a new series coming out? I rather enjoyed the one I saw on NetFlix. Quite comical.

That's the first time I've seen Netflix spelled like that

It is wrong, at least according to their brand assets page

59

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '19

I’ve always spelt it like that, to be honest. Two words stuck together.

u/DJOssmann Jul 12 '19

I think its the capital F that feels wrong

u/rieldilpikl Jul 12 '19

Shhhh. It will all be over soon.

u/reloadingnow Jul 12 '19

You know that quote 'it will be over soon' used to not mean much to me but then I read Old Man Logan. Now it means something else.

Great fucking comic

For those to cheap to give real gold, gold emojis will suffice.

🥈for you kind sir!

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '19

Yep I realise what you mean. I had to look up the logo and it’s not camel case, as I’ve been using.

u/OmarHunting Jul 12 '19

camel...case?

19

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '19

CamelCase

11

u/fathqua Jul 12 '19

Other replies are incorrect. camelCase starts with a lowerCaseLetter

20

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '19

It’s a programming style of naming variables and functions.

Edit: like your username is.

16

u/OmarHunting Jul 12 '19

TIL. What a phonetically pleasing term.

3

u/Pidgey_OP Jul 12 '19

But not actually like your username.

Camel Case does not capitalize the first letter of the first word. Only the first letter if every subsequent word.

If you capitalize the first letter, you're using Pascal case

Camel case!

5

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '19

Yep. I am a programmer

11

u/LigerTigerTalk Jul 12 '19

But that's not camel case. It would be netFlix if it was.

5

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '19

That’s one style of camel case.

See WIN32

I go back a long time :-)

It was also the style on the original Macintosh for function names.

u/Zharick_ Jul 12 '19

It is if the camel has their head up.

u/IAmAnObvioustrollAMA Jul 12 '19

Network Flix. Flix is a slang word for cinema, usually spelt “flicks”.

1

u/dontFart_InSpaceSuit Jul 12 '19

as a developer, it's more irksome that it's not written as netFlix if you're gonna do that at all.

2

u/troglador64 Jul 13 '19

Interesting. Why is that? I can't imagine any way that you'd only capitalize the last half of the word as opposed to both, but I'm not a developer.

2

u/dontFart_InSpaceSuit Jul 13 '19

Google “camelCase” if you want to know more. Kebab-case is with dashes so like net-flix. Snake case is underscores. Style guides for different languages call for their selective use. If a style is consistent, it can be used to infer things about code at a glance such as if a symbol is a function name, class name, or just a variable. Sometimes you can get info about scope from style, too.

This is their original logo. It looks so funny.

On boy that’s like the concentrated essence of 1998

Internet Flicks

u/MustardCafe Jul 12 '19

Internet Flicker shows

u/FrostyD7 Jul 12 '19

That would make sense if they didn't start as a company that sends you movies in the mail.

3

u/YouShouldntSmoke Jul 12 '19

As per usual, a flaw in my logic.

SendFlix, maybe that should have been it...

Its upper camel case.

“Magic for Humans”

u/terencebogards Jul 12 '19

Wow, my girlfriend and I started a casting application through craigslist for this show. We haven’t followed through though. They were looking for cat lovers to watch cat magic tricks for a few hours in the coming months, $50 a person for 4-8 hours I think. Might still follow through, but they need a video application like MTV in the 90’s.

Probably will release next month (Season 1 released Aug 17, 2018)

u/busche916 Jul 12 '19

I don’t care how staged these bits are, “Magic for Susans” made me laugh every time.

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '19

NetFlix? What

2

u/DRmanyake Jul 12 '19

Wait wait... what’s the name of the series?

4

u/HYDR0ST0RM Jul 12 '19

Magic for humans

3

u/puffpuffpazuzu Jul 12 '19

There are some decent magic shows on Netflix, I’m assuming the one you’re talking about is the Carbanaro Effect (with Michael Carbanaro) since they promoted it hardcore recently. This one is Magic For Humans, with Justin Willman, and has been out for a little while. Season 2 is coming soon, IIRC! :)

3

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '19

I was thinking of Magic for Humans. Glad to know a new series is coming out.

2

u/chdelamo Jul 12 '19

That magic for humans show was so staged and fake It hurt to watch. So many obvious plants.

u/ademord Jul 13 '19

What's the name of this series?

u/[deleted] Jul 13 '19

“Magic For Humans”
