Re: Programming jokes

We used a USB chicklet ($150) this year with our Xbox 360 controller, which as some of you may know takes up to a 9V DC input (the chicklet, I mean). We got it out one day and were looking through the manual when one of the newbies took it upon himself to power it up. Luckily I stopped him, with half an inch to spare, from plugging it into a 24V DC power supply he found laying around.

In our code this year, one of the students had written to functions for testing/prototype purposes, and named them "ROFLMAO" and "ROFLMAO2"....but we then ended up using them in the final code.
