I thought this was absolutely hilarious.
It’s a lot of programming jokes. If you’re not a programming, or not into absolutely hilarious stuff, don’t bother reading.
Incidentally, I’m trying to decide what programming language to pick up to get back into programming. I’ve pretty much narrowed it down to Python, Perl, Ruby, and PHP.
I guess I’ll just flip a coin and hope it comes up Perl. I think I’d be a little worried about accidentally sticking an “Import SkyNet;” statement into one of my Python programs. And I already like Perl.
Notice there is no mention of Java, C++, Visual ANYTHING, or Lisp. I think the days of masochism in programming should be over. Although, Objective-C might be a possibility, because that’s the language of choice in the dev kit for OSX and the iPhone.
Maybe I’ll try my hand at a climatology model. I’m betting I could do better than the hacks at Los Alamos. *grin*
