Multiple people have requested I post the limericks I recited at the BBQ this week. Here they are, as best as I can recall from memory:
There once was a coder named Kring
He sure liked to right-click on things
He once claimed he was faster
Than the coding challenge master
Yet he’d never step into the ring!
There once was a coder named Mercer
Who always had a class on his cursor
Then Christina stopped by
With her eyes on his VIs
And said, “Clusters would make this code worser!”
There once was a coder named Aivaliotis
Who had a cool blog that he showed us
It’s called VI Shots
And we all love it lots
But on facebook he keeps trying to poke us!
There once was a coder named Goeres
Who spent all his money on...
... ...
There once was a coder named Justin
Whose popcorn machine kept on bustin’
The problem, he knew,
Was in no way LabVIEW
Turns out, the real wires were rustin’.
There once was a coder named Norm
Who made writing VIs an art form.
But not akin to Van Gogh,
Or Michaelangelo,
More like, a 5-year old with Colorforms.
There once was a coder named Relf
Who was always promoting himself.
If only he knew
“Image Acquisition and Processing with LabVIEW”
to this day gathers dust on my shelf.
