#11 4 Hobbits would be a Hobnybble.

I take issue with the spelling of Tesla here. Even Eddisson would agree with me on that.

Can someone please explain #6 to a more simple man :'(

sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1. It's the mailman's.

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

#6 Ah ha ha cuz sin^2(X) + cos^2(X) = 1 and tan^2(X) + 1 = sec^2(X)

Space bar took me way too long.

10 years ago | Likes 46 Dislikes 0

Is it simply that it's a bar? I'm not sure I get the joke. Would somebody explain?

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

It's an astronaut drinking at a space bar.

I'm pretty sure these are all common science jokes. No nerdity required, but dumbed down just enough to let everyone laugh.

The recursive algorithm one i wouldn't have understood if i wasn't a software engineer.

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 1

But we all get the gist of it

So, a byte is actually eight bits! This explains why "octet", based on the Latin numeral 8, is used in French. Also, bite means cock.

10 years ago | Likes 28 Dislikes 0

In more formal documents (like RFCs and 3GPP TS) it's all octets.

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Used to be called octet back when a byte could also be 7-bits on a common machine. Now it's more reserved for where it's not a guarantee.

10 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

So when French people buy new hard drives, they look at how many teraoctets of data it holds? What the fuck, France.

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

Yep. They browse for the biggest megabite for completely different needs.

Fucking sugar cube. That was golden

Why would we recursively O([n?1]lgn) calculate mass when we could use a data structure to track it and call it in constant time O(1)?

The stack overflow one looks fancy but it's like week 2 CS 101 stuff

Just so's you know, there has been music written in frequencies we can't hear. For cats. They like it.

I don't get the mole one

Chemistry: a mole is 6.02 x 10^23 molecules, atoms, electrons...

I didn't get the math one with the mailman.

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1. It's the mailman's.

I literally scrolled down to see if someone had made a comment on that. All that safety's been ingrained in my head

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

see I feel like there are acids but reduced to such a low molarity like low to .00001% acid. Still technically acid but not deadly

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Because he's tripping on acid.
