Teacher: "You can't do spaces in HTML. If you see spaces on web pages, then they must be using java to override basic HTML. Java saved the Internet, because it removes limitations of HTML, but it's beyond the scope of this course to show you how to do it."
While working on a programming project in highschool with a friend, I mentioned to him that if he really wants to name his variables things like x, xx, and xx2, he should at least put comments saying what they're used for.The next time I looked over his shoulder, I saw this:int x; // x is an int
At my previous job, we were porting a UNIX system to Windows NT using Microsoft VC++. A colleague of mine, that was in the process of porting his portion of the code, came to me, looking really upset. * Colleague: "Hey! I hate these Microsoft guys! What a rotten compiler! It only accepts 16,384 local variables in a function!"
The functions are sitting in a bar, chatting (how fast they go to zero at infinity etc.). Suddenly, one cries "Beware! Derivation is coming!"All immediately hide themselves under the tables, only the exponential sits calmly on the chair.The derivation comes in, sees a function and says "Hey, you don't fear me?""No, I am e to the x", says the exponential self-confidently."Well" replies the derivation "but who says I differentiate along x?"
Some people say the glass is half full, others say it's half empty. Engineers say the glass is twice as large as it needs to be.
There are three engineers in a car; an electrical engineer, a chemical engineer and a Microsoft engineer. Suddenly the car just stops by the side of the road, and the three engineers look at each other wondering what could be wrong.The electrical engineer suggests stripping down the electronics of the car and trying to trace where a fault might have occurred.The chemical engineer, not knowing much about cars, suggests that maybe the fuel is becoming emulsified and getting blocked somewhere.Then, the Microsoft engineer, not knowing much about anything, comes up with a suggestion, 'Why don't we close all the windows, get out, get back in, open the windows again, and maybe it'll work !?'

An infinite amount of mathematicians walk into a barThe first walks up the the bartender and orders a pint of bearThe second walks up and orders a half pintThe third walks up and orders a fourth of a pintThe bartender interrupts and says "I understand" and pours two pints!
