Just A Byte Of Contention

bits-memes, bytes-memes, computer-science-memes, wordplay-memes, binary-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

Oh, the classic computer science wordplay! Left character complains "She bit me 8 times" while the right character retorts "Liar! It's just 1 byte." This is a nerdy pun exploiting the fact that 1 byte = 8 bits in computing. The accuser is technically correct about getting 8 individual bits, but the defender insists on measuring in bytes instead. It's like saying "I drank 16 ounces of water" and someone arguing "No, you just had 1 pint!" Technically correct is the best kind of correct in software engineering.

Answered January 7, 2015 If you are writing an operating system, I suggest you use C. If you are writing a very complex application where execution speed is extremely important, I suggest you use C. If time to market is key, but execution speed is not important, I suggest you use python. If your boss told you: "do it in Java or you are fired" I suggest you use Java and look for a better workplace.

I Swear It Was Broken Before

That awkward moment when your code decides to work after you've spent two hours debugging it, and you have absolutely no idea why. Just sitting there with that Kermit face, questioning your entire career choice. Is it cosmic rays? Cache clearing itself? The programming gods taking pity on you? Whatever it is, you'll take the win but deep down you know this mysterious fix will come back to haunt you in production next week. The most terrifying line in programming isn't an error message—it's code that works when it absolutely shouldn't.
