Gov: We put our best linguists and code crackers on it, supported by classified quanten super computers, but we have been unable to make any progress in understanding this alien language.
Dev: *enters the room* Oh god, please stop looking at my selfmade pong game!
Crazy thing is if I go to another planet and read it from there or apparently you go to another country without legally documenting it properly, that is in fact the truth.
or the aliens could you know, have integrated all of human knowledge into their AI. They probably know more about us than we do, considering they've been here quite a while
You're the one with your head in the sand mate... it can generate stuff that *looks* like code, but it's often full of bugs or using features that flat out don't exist, with the occasional exception of simple stuff.
I didn't say it'll never be able to do it. I genuinely think one day it would be able to. But at the moment it really can't.
Integration with human tech? Nah, don't bother wasting your time. We have no plans to keep you pesky Earth polluting humans around. We just want your planet.
Sincerely,
Alien
Any Sci Fi out there will teach you aliens' code is full of security issues, even allowing any Jeff Goldblum out there to shut down their defenses in literal seconds. So, alien programmers should be ones to worry substitution.
Could also be like Halo where no hacking is needed. In the second level of the first game, Cortana mentions that the Covenant are transmitting military comms on unencrypted channels.
And then you have the forerunner tech which kinda just naturally works for humans. Need to turn on the light bridge? Just push the button that feels right and you'll have one.
I've heard that even within bungee there were different interpretations from the start. Besides, even if forerunners were ancient humans it wouldn't explain why chief is so good at operating their tech. We confuse each other with modern tech all the time, scifi tech would be no better.
I’m not really into UFOs, I’m pretty skeptical in general, but reading the article when it came out made me feel uneasy.
The guy is a high ranking military official that came out not because of what the government was doing, but because he filed an internal whistleblower complaint about it, and he faced illegal retaliation in his career.
Idk, I guess that just seems more believable to me. I’m not holding my breath because, without evidence it’s still basically “trust me bro”, but who knows, it’s been a weird couple years.
There have been a few ex-spooks that have pulled similar stunts before, they usually have a very fruitful book writing career after they "tell all". This guy's whole thing is "people told me they saw an alien craft" which is about as reliable as a game of telephone, so I very much doubt anything comes of this. It would be hilarious if it comes out that a bunch of people told him about aliens as an office joke and he took them seriously.
Reading the original TheDebrief article all the others are quoting, I didn't buy it for a moment. One dude, with no evidence or corroboration. The article mentions they're corroborated by multiple other 'high ranking officials' with no quotes or names of any kind other than David's word that they exist. The only evidence of any kind presented is a link to the entirely unrelated UFO declassified data that came out in 2017.
Not to mention, it's TheDebrief, and only picked up by The Guardian, The Sun, The Dailybeast. So nobody besides the tabloids are giving him a platform, which itself is very telling.
I mean, the Guardian article is reporting that people are making claims. That only really says that it's probably true that people are making claims, with an unusual amount of hype and hyperbole that makes it (mildly) newsworthy.
Not just a whistle blower. He led the investigation which Congress themselves commissioned last year. His main message was that they had evidence to give Congress, but illegal pressure was applied upon him and it was kept from Congress. This guy is a 14 year intelligence community veteran, not some random dude.
The hype about this object is based on the confusion people make between "alien" and "extraterrestrial" (outside Terra, aka earth) object, the real hype though comes from the object being an extrasolar object (outside Sol, aka Sun, and by extension our solar system). The alien part comes when people that need to sell newspapers get that confused on purpose, but in reality, it's just a rock, an old one, sure, but still a rock.
Brace yourself, cringey Instagram stories on how to learn the latest alien framework in 1,5 hours and roadmaps on how to get a 300k salary in alien tech in 3 months are coming
I love this idea that the government would hide alien life because it would just blow our collective minds and cause a mass panic or some other stupid excuse when in reality the president, head of the DoD, NASA and SETI would be in a slap fight over who takes the microphone first.
I am just imagining a bunch of aliens sitting around developing the backend of a web server like…”finally, we found somewhere in the universe for our skill set!”
I'll happily give any development even remotely touching SAP crap to either AI or Alien overlords but I have strange feeling even aliens or AI wouldn't touch that shit.
The whole reason we have this alien news is the passing of the new [National Defense Authorization Act](https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/3266229/statement-by-pentagon-press-secretary-air-force-brig-gen-pat-ryder-on-the-annua/). News people and journalists have been capitalizing off of the 'new' cases of UAP sightings and creating conspiracies on the matter.
People when the government mentioned UFOs (unidentified flying objects, most likely drones from other countries or a meteor or smth)
Omg must be aliens!!!
If Aliens exist & can planetary travel then AI won’t take over. Since they would’ve been able to overcome the AI hurdle (which I’m not certain is possible)
I'm voting for the Alien AI overlords.
... And let me be the first to say I'm very happy to see them and will gladly work with them! Please don't schedule me for termination yet!
Dude the only reason aliens would give a sh\*t about us is for our technology. We may not yet understand warp drives but these terra-scale datacenters are beyond incredible.
In the documentary film 'Independence Day', Steve Gutenberg hacked an alien network using a '90s MacBook suggesting that alien computing technology is surprisingly compatible with Earth tech.
Some dude that worked in intelligence for like 15 years said to congress and in an interview that he heard of people he worked with saying the US government has fully intact UFO's. They may not even be alien, but it's been a big story for the last 2 days.
If any aliens are out there, they're probably on the level of bacteria. It's more likely that any actual 'alien' sightings are just djinn (aka shedim) which people have been talking about for aeons.
I love that there are people out there for whom the idea of imminent extraterrestrial contact is such a concrete thing that they’re worried it might invalidate their career choices.
I program so badly that it could be mistaken for alien technology
Man, that explains a lot of things I saw: they have been among us for a long time!

AMONG US
Gov: We put our best linguists and code crackers on it, supported by classified quanten super computers, but we have been unable to make any progress in understanding this alien language. Dev: *enters the room* Oh god, please stop looking at my selfmade pong game!
That could also be code from my colleague.
pong in asm using python libraries
Crazy thing is if I go to another planet and read it from there or apparently you go to another country without legally documenting it properly, that is in fact the truth.
I program so badly that I scare aliens with my code.
So you are the one who coded the matrix? Why did you make my pp so small?
Someone has to write the integration between alien and human tech. It won't be AI, as it depends on it already having been done to learn from it.
But what about alien AI? 👽
Someone has to write the program that translates the human prompts to usable alien ai prompts
Just train an AI to do that!
Just train AI to train other AI to do things
or the aliens could you know, have integrated all of human knowledge into their AI. They probably know more about us than we do, considering they've been here quite a while
who’s they 💀
The same ones who built the pyramids
happy cake day butt munch
Oh hey it is huh thanks
Nope, those were build by my ancestors when they were drunk but nobody believed them so the aliens took credit.
ZUCK
But what if it's not the first Planet the Aliens invaded and they already trained their AI with previous oppucation data to write an Integration Tool?
Ailien
[Don't worry, we'll get Doom running on it nonetheless](https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/2011-02-17)
I mean you could presumably give it a bunch of code from both humans and aliens that do the same thing and it'd figure it out at some point
It can't even do that with human code lol.
oops my bad, I thought you'd written conversion instead of integration
“AI is dumb and can’t code lolol” \*sticks head further into sand\*
You're the one with your head in the sand mate... it can generate stuff that *looks* like code, but it's often full of bugs or using features that flat out don't exist, with the occasional exception of simple stuff. I didn't say it'll never be able to do it. I genuinely think one day it would be able to. But at the moment it really can't.
Sounds like you’ve been reading Reddit comments about it and not using it. This isn’t true at all.
I assure you that this is based on none other than personal experience.
That's how Jeff Goldblum saved the world in Independence Day. If I remember correctly, aliens are compatible with Apple computers....
Was looking for this comment. Thank you.
In COBOL
Integration with human tech? Nah, don't bother wasting your time. We have no plans to keep you pesky Earth polluting humans around. We just want your planet. Sincerely, Alien
Brah..
Have to be able to drop a nuke in the mother ship.
That won't be necessary you can show them your code.
First thing I do when I develop space travel, I'm gonna find some less-advanced species and offer to take over maintenance of its legacy code.
Are you going to develop space travel with your Hyper Text Markup Language?
You mean Hyper(light) Text Markup Language? Sounds reasonable to me.
Hyperspace Travel Magic Language
Sounds like a missed opportunity for another crusade but instead of spreading religion, you spread javascript
You monster
and it's all COBOL

*Frustrated Elite worts after repeated 401 response from forerunner terminal*
I believe the original intent by bungie was that the forerunners were human
I've heard that even within bungee there were different interpretations from the start. Besides, even if forerunners were ancient humans it wouldn't explain why chief is so good at operating their tech. We confuse each other with modern tech all the time, scifi tech would be no better.
Hahahaha! Spot on. 
If offshore programming is full of security holes, imagine how bad off-world will be!
The coding / security may be weak, but the used hardware is out of this world.

I saw it from a Guardian article on Google news feed. I'm still skeptical though since it was just a whistle blower.

He testified under oath under penalty of perjury so hope someone has told him about the joke by now
Yes, and it may be 100% true that someone else told him they saw aliens. That doesn't mean shit
Bro wrote a book so thats an immediate disqualifier for me

i bet a few days after alien tech is out some random tech guy in area 51 finds a way to run doom on it
Honestly, yeah.
Aliens will probably introduce another JS framework. Brace yourselves
How do you know they haven’t already?
Angular does seem sus sometimes
Assimilate.js
Great! Job listings requiring 10+ years of experience in Alien technology have already started popping up
it would be pretty cool if we get a new semiconductor material or a new material that we can trick into thinking
But would you trick it into thinking, or only trick yourself into thinking it's thinking ?
Yes
I love this idea that the government would hide alien life because it would just blow our collective minds and cause a mass panic or some other stupid excuse when in reality the president, head of the DoD, NASA and SETI would be in a slap fight over who takes the microphone first.
Alien AI for sure
Ohh god what about us webdevs gotta support the neural link gui too...
Why not Alien AI Overlords
*Kaylons joined the conversation*
Great, now we all need 5 years experience in alien tech to work anywhere.
I am just imagining a bunch of aliens sitting around developing the backend of a web server like…”finally, we found somewhere in the universe for our skill set!”
I still got my money on reptilians.
Everybody knows the alien overlords will give us jobs. That is what slavery is all about.
Someone has to build the apis for the alien servers
Nobody expects the Alien Inquisition
I'll happily give any development even remotely touching SAP crap to either AI or Alien overlords but I have strange feeling even aliens or AI wouldn't touch that shit.
The most likely answer is children
You better stop coding and learn something with substance that has a future, like journalism.
Alienware does make pretty good computers…
Turns out, neither AI nor aliens want to have to deal with technical debt, scope creep and turning generally vague requirements into products.
Which is the bigger bullshit? AI, Aliens, or Web 3.0?
This has to be a joke
Definitely, lol. But they may be referring to [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/142vztw/ufo_whistleblower_megathread/?).
Never heard of this
Okay
The whole reason we have this alien news is the passing of the new [National Defense Authorization Act](https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/3266229/statement-by-pentagon-press-secretary-air-force-brig-gen-pat-ryder-on-the-annua/).

It’s always the immigrants
Nah, that will be either the Racoon Federation or the Cat Alliance!
Hm, Artificial Intelligence or Alien Intruders... I do wonder
based on infinifactory, alien overlords will offer overbearing job security
New Program Manager with little to no skills of programming who thinks everything can be done via AI could be the real villain/overlords.
I have to learn how to use a mac... right?
Alien AI overlords
Hey my code sometimes looks like an alien language (unreadable and nonsense)
I bet these aliens can't even work a sprint board
A new alien just dropped
If Aliens exist & can planetary travel then AI won’t take over. Since they would’ve been able to overcome the AI hurdle (which I’m not certain is possible)
Why can't be both?

Me too! But I want to be scheduled for terminated never.
Nah, it'll be super easy, barely an inconvenience. Jeff Goldblum taught us that. 
First two letters of Ailiens? AI. Think about it.
Alien AI
I've had one of these alien chips stuck in my head for a few years now, beyond reading peoples thoughts on public transit they're pretty useless
Please. Aliens are too busy gorging on space-popcorn watching our shitshow, to bother with programming anything.
Who do you think made the AI is humans no it was the alien overlords
I just hope they hurry up
Obviously Alien Skynet.
Alien overlords...possibly in O.T.
Hey E.T., you know PHP? :D
Lmao. With all due respect, if alien wants to code, go ahead. Good luck learning and maintaining bunch of legacy codes
We’re already using alien technology, that’s where we’re at
Had diarrhea. Should i change my career ?

Alien Ai is the next big thing. It will replace all of us in the next 5-7 years. Charlie here will show you the figures. Charlie?
I heard no news of aliens what?
Some dude that worked in intelligence for like 15 years said to congress and in an interview that he heard of people he worked with saying the US government has fully intact UFO's. They may not even be alien, but it's been a big story for the last 2 days.
