- microgpt 4mo agoAFAIK it's an autistic person thing (correlating with hackers (for obvious reasons)) to go on little thought tangents (like this one) all the time and parentheses are how you express that in text (much easier than writing prose (effectively delineates the tangent and allows the reader to skip over it)) (yes I'm autistic myself) (yes I'm deliberately exaggerating the effect)
- rcxdude 4mo agoI'm quite guilty of it and often find myself pushing parenthetical parts into the main text to avoid things getting too badly nested.
