Tell Me The Truth I'm Ready To Hear It

The harsh reality that keeps computer scientists up at night—using an entire byte (8 bits) to store a single boolean value that only needs 1 bit. It's like buying a mansion just to store a single sock. Memory efficiency purists are shedding tears right now, while the rest of us just keep allocating more RAM because "hardware is cheap." Meanwhile, embedded systems developers are having actual nightmares about this wasteful behavior. The true tragedy isn't just the 7 wasted bits—it's that we've all collectively agreed to ignore this digital environmental crime.

The 'Perfect Date' No One Expected

Someone asks about romance and gets a LECTURE on date formatting instead. Because nothing says "I'm emotionally available" quite like having strong opinions about DD/MM/YYYY versus MM/DD/YYYY versus YYYY-MM-DD. The real plot twist? They're not wrong though. Other formats ARE confusing, especially when Americans write 03/04/2024 and the rest of the world has to play a fun guessing game of "is that March 4th or April 3rd?" DD/MM/YYYY eliminates the chaos and brings order to the universe. Who needs candlelit dinners when you can have properly structured temporal data? Romance is dead, long live ISO standards!
