Morning all,
I’m late. Timezones, as usual. However:
Q: How is Programmer Day celebrated?
A: Anyway you want! Here are some suggestions:
…
Have a contest for the best binary pun / programming joke
There are 10 kinds of people in the world.
Those who understand binary, and those who don’t!
What is an Oracle DBA’s all time favourite album?
Pink Floyd - Dark SID Of The Moon.
Cheers,

A classic:
Q: How many programmers does it take to change a ligth bulb?
A: NONE, it’s a hardware problem.

And on a similar note:
How many Microsoft Engineers does it take to change a light bulb?
None. Microsoft redefine darkness as the new standard.

Hi Chris,

Nice article. Some of the bullet points did make me laugh though:
But how many Microsoft employees does it actually take to change a
lightbulb?
One dev to spend five minutes implementing
ChangeLightBulbWindowHandleEx.
One program manager to write the specification.
Note how the work is doen before the specification is completed!
…
At least one dev, tester and PM to brainstorm security
vulnerabilities.
I’m not convinced that this actually happens, otherwise, we wouldn’t
have Internet Explorer!
…
Also…let’s not forget Talk like a Pirate Day. Do we
celebrate on Friday or Monday or both…arrrrgh the choices…
Surely every Friday, regardless!
Cheers,
Norm. [TeamT]

MSFT and Ford both have something in common, their Explorer products should have
both been named Exploder
