In summary: It's a humor that relies on absurdity and unexpectedness. It's not for everyone.Not a fan of surrealism, I take it?In summary, surrealism is an art form that relies on absurdity and unexpectedness, often producing incongruous imagery or effects.

Intel solved this problem by using little-endian protocol (10-10-4202)BillTre said:
Being a Unix/Linux guy, I've always mourned the standardization of the Intel architecture over say 68xxx, but by golly, the Intel guys got the endian thing right. I've tracked down countless bugs due to big-endian confusion.
Of course it doesn't help with trying to sort dates stored in text format since text sorting protocol is big indian, a bug with the dictionary people if you ask me.
