Programming humour 2: The real programmer

Programmer - A photo of a programmer

The real programmer, when in bed at night, says "sleep (0x7080)" The real programmer doesn't use maps: if he has to travel from a city to another,he applies the Dijkstra alghoritm The real programmer doesn't like Lord Of the Rings, coz 8 Hobbits don't make one Hobbyte The first words of a real programmer weren't "mum" or "dad", but "Hello World!" The real programmer has a picture in his house with this phrase "127.0.0.1 sweet 127.0.0.1" The real Programmer declaration of love to a woman: "private Object RealProgrammer" The real programmer knows casuality doesn't exists: it's only a pseudo-random alghoritm. I've translated this list from an Italian one. Do you like it? How much of these sentences you can understand?

1001101000100101 = 0x9A25 I still don't know what 0x9A25 means. Maybe it means nothing.

I'm not sure I can understand much and I am a programmer myself. Are we talking fantasy or reality here?

It's a fantasy list, I can't think of no one who says "Hello World" as first words xD

True but any programming language you learn "Hello World" is the first program you learn.

I understood them. Those were great. Did you know there are 10 types of people in the world? Those who understand binary, and those who do not.

Hello there! I'm amused by the sentences above :) I'm a programmer. At least I can explain to you some of the sentences mentioned above. Djikstra's Algorithm is a way to determine the shortest path from a place to another. 8 bits make a byte. But Hobbits don't form Hobbytes. The first working program when learning a new programming language is printing out the phrase "Hello World!"
