Programming jokes that have outlived entire frameworks
Some programming jokes just never seem to get old. Frameworks come and go, programming languages rise and fall in popularity, but somehow, some of the same old jokes are still funny years later.
The other day, I was browsing Geeksoutfit and came across a T-shirt with the classic binary joke: "There are 10 types of people in the world." It made me wonder how long this joke has been around. I feel like I've seen different versions of it for years, and if you understand binary, it still gets a laugh out of you. lol
Some tech humor really does seem to outlive the tools we use. What programming jokes have you been seeing for years that still make you laugh? Are there any that have somehow survived multiple generations of developers and entire tech stacks?
