Shlomi Fish’s Funny Bits [possible satire]

Take the Perl motto (“There’s more than one way to do it”) and extrapolate it to the other programming languages out there.

The “International Really Pissed-off Windows Users Group” (IRPWUG) announces the project “What you See is What you Think” (WYSIWYT).

Make yourself heard now!

Havoc awaits when a huge problem is discovered in one of the most popular open source licences.

A humorous geek song to the tune of “I Love Rock-N’-Roll”.

Announcement of a tool to facilitate communication with Richard M. Stallman. See also the Slashdot discussion.

How compatible are Windows 3.11, Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0?

A geek parody of Coolio’s “Gangsta’s Paradise”.

An interview with me about a new book I’m publishing in O’Reilly about how to master UNIX’s tricky “cat” command.

A useful checklist.

The best programming language that ever existed or that can ever exist.

Software applications which are so comprehensive that they contain (almost) everything.

A Geeky Perl song inspired by “I'm the Real Slim Shady” by Eminem.

A geeky song sang to the music of “Can I Go Now?” by Jennifer Love Hewitt.

You’d better believe it…

Another great innovation from Freecell Solver Enterprises™.

Breaking news about a small, but important, strategical acquisition.

No tool is too small to spend hours discussing…

“FOSS developers don’t have enough choice when it comes to licensing.”.

Google announced it will discontinue its web search, Gmail and its Google Docs services.

Emma Watson is a 1990-born British creator, activist, actress, and model, who rose to fame playing Hermione in the Harry Potter films, and (quoting from the Wikipedia page):

In October 2013, she was voted Sexiest Female Movie Star in a worldwide poll conducted by Empire magazine. In May 2014, BuzzFeed dubbed her the “most flawless woman of the decade”.

Now the question is: does she have what it takes to work as a Java enterprise software developer… ;-).

A sort-of-sequel to the previous bit, this bit explores what will happen if Ms. Watson decides to visit the Gaza envelope and the Gaza strip.

And to think it is the kind of video that 8 year olds watch twice a day.

A significant step forward…

Brace yourself… and your Python code.

As an example, we can imagine a young girl to write a funny screenplay using GitHub or Google Docs which pits Emma Watson vs. Kim Kardashian on who gets to ride Princess Celestia next, with Darth Vader and Haman as two "evil", but mutually hating one another, arbiters. Might seem ridiculous, but if I didn't want entertainment in my life, then I'd go watch grass grow. It will be a legal and “ethical” minefield, but I'd bet it'd be easier to follow and more entertaining than Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" was even shortly after LotR was written.

( — “Commercial Real Person Fan Fiction (RPFs), crossovers and parodies as 2021 geeky/hackery imperatives for revitalising the film industry” )

Well, I'm a 44 years old man, but I accepted my own challenge…

Ultimate Fighting Championship ( = "UFC") contestant Ronda Rousey is notable for having kept a fairly long streak of consecutive wins.

This real-person-fiction ("RPF") screenplay presents a hypothesis of how she achieved that.
