The joke that haunts multithreaded nightmares! This is a twisted take on the classic knock-knock joke, but with a programming punchline about race conditions.
For the uninitiated souls: a race condition is when two threads access shared data simultaneously and the outcome depends on which one finishes first—essentially chaos incarnate.
The brilliance here is that "Ray" interrupts before the expected "Race condition who?" response can complete—perfectly demonstrating how race conditions wreck expected program flow. It's basically what happens when your code's timing is about as reliable as a weather forecast.
