That's right; comedian Emo Phillips had a bit about it: "Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody understand me." I said, "What's so special about you?" He said, "I'm a computer guy." I said, "Me too! Desktop, tablet, console, smartphone?" He said "Desktop, mostly", I said "Me, too! Mac, Linux or Windows?" He said, "Any, I'm a programmer." I said, "Me, too! which style? OOP, Imperative, Functional, Logic, Array, Stack" He said, "Logic." I said, "Me, too! What subset? Answer Set Programming, Abductive Programming, Prolog, Datalog?" He said, "Prolog." I said, "Me, too! Conformant with the ISO/IEC 13211-1:1995 (core) standard term syntax for the period character or non-conformant extention decried by members of the ISO/IEC JTC1 SC22 WG17 working group?" He said, "SWI Prolog 7" I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over." - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26624442 or read more seriously here: - https://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/ulrich/iso-prolog/SWI7_and... |
