Here are more snippets from the one liner file. While preparing RHF, I collect short jokes that aren't quite worthy of an individual posting in the one liner file. Every so often I put digests of these out to the group. (Beware that some readers, such as NN, will mistakenly present all these items in the digest as individual articles. Undigestification is a stupid kludge, but you have to live with it.) These short items may contain swearing, mature themes and stereotypes. = = = = = = = From: aycock@cpsc.ucalgary.ca (John Aycock) Subject: new ideas in computer science, original The "doesn't-fit" memory allocation strategy: void *malloc (len) int len; { return (rand ()); } = = = = = = = Subject: Warning to Drop-Outs From: jbtubman@noah.arc.ab.ca (Jim Tubman) As we all know, a high school drop-out has very poor job prospects.
