Murphy's Laws of Computers

  • Any given program, when running, is obsolete.

  • Any given program costs more and takes longer each time it is run.

  • If a program is useful, it will have to be changed.

  • If a program is useless, it will have to be documented.

  • Any given program will expand to fill all the available memory.

  • The value of a program is inversely proportional to the weight of its output.

  • Program complexity grows until it exceeds the capability of the programmer who must maintain it.

  • Every non- trivial program has at least one bug
    Corollary 1 - A sufficient condition for program triviality is that it have no bugs.
    Corollary 2 - At least one bug will be observed after the author leaves the organization.

  • Bugs will appear in one part of a working program when another 'unrelated' part is modified.

  • The subtlest bugs cause the greatest damage and problems.
    Corollary - A subtle bug will modify storage thereby masquerading as some other problem.

  • Lulled into Security Law
    A 'debugged' program that crashes will wipe out source files on storage devices when there is the least available backup.

  • A hardware failure will cause system software to crash, and the customer engineer will blame the programmer.

  • A system software crash will cause hardware to act strangely and the programmers will blame the customer engineer.

  • Undetectable errors are infinite in variety, in contrast to detectable errors, which by definition are limited.

  • Adding manpower to a late software project makes it later.

  • Make it possible for programmers to write programs in English, and you will find that programmers can not write in English.

  • The documented interfaces between standard software modules will have undocumented quirks.

  • The probability of a hardware failure disappearing is inversely proportional to the distance between the computer and the customer engineer.

  • A working program is one that has only unobserved bugs.

  • No matter how many resources you have, it is never enough.

  • Any cool program always requires more memory than you have.

  • When you finally buy enough memory, you will not have enough disk space.

  • Disks are always full. It is futile to try to get more disk space. Data expands to fill any void.

  • If a program actually fits in memory and has enough disk space, it is guaranteed to crash.

  • If such a program has not crashed yet, it is waiting for a critical moment before it crashes.

  • No matter how good of a deal you get on computer components, the price will always drop immediately after the purchase.

  • All components become obsolete.

  • The speed with which components become obsolete is directly proportional to the price of the component.

  • Software bugs are impossible to detect by anybody except the end user.

  • The maintenance engineer will never have seen a model quite like yours before.

  • It is axiomatic that any spares required will have just been discontinued and will be no longer in stock.

  • Any VDU, from the cheapest to the most expensive, will protect a twenty cent fuse by blowing first.

  • Any manufacturer making his warranties dependent upon the device being earthed will only supply power cabling with two wires.

  • If a circuit requires n components, then there will be only n - 1 components in locally-held stocks.

  • A failure in a device will never appear until it has passed final inspection.

  • Adding manpower to a late software project makes it later.

  • A program generator creates programs that are more buggy than the program generator.

  • All Constants are Variables.

  • Constants aren't

  • Variables won't

SMART PEOPLE...

SMART PEOPLE

Smart man + smart woman = romance

Smart man + dumb woman = pregnancy

Dumb man + smart woman = affair

Dumb man + dumb woman = marriage

Smart boss + smart employee = profit

Smart boss + dumb employee = production

Dumb boss + smart employee = promotion

Dumb boss + dumb employee = overtime

HOME TRUTHS

A man will pay Rs 200 for a Rs 100 item he needs

A woman will pay Rs 100 for a Rs 200 item that she doesn't need

A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband

A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife

To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.

To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot & NOT try to understand her at all

Married men live longer than single men, but married men are a lot more willing to die

Any married man should forget his mistakes, there's no use in two people remembering the same thing

FAMILY AFFAIRS

Beautiful girls don't bother me. I wish they would !

The only woman who can make me wish to be single again is my wife

A good wife is like the ivy which beautifies the building to which it clings, twining its tendrils more lovingly as time converts the ancient edifice into a ruin

Only Adam had no mother-in-law. That's how we know he lived in paradise

When you're bored with yourself, marry and be bored with someone else

God help the man who won't marry until he finds a perfect woman and God help him still more if he finds her

When a man declares “I am sure of my wife" it means he is sure of his wife. But when a woman declares "I am sure of my husband" it means she is sure of herself

Aren't they a lovely couple? He's willing to die for her and she's willing to let him

"What happened to that handsome man who sent you flowers every week?" "He married the girl who sold him the flowers"

Rakesh : "Broken off your engagement to Meena?" Mahesh :"She would not have me." Rakesh : "You should have told her about your rich uncle in Bombay. " Mahesh : "I did. She is my aunt now"

When Ma disapproved the girl her son wanted to marry, a friend told the young man, "You must find a girl who is like your mother." Several months later, the young man told his friend, "I finally found a girl who looks, talks and acts just like my mother ." "Congratulations!" said his friend. "Not yet", said the young man and added, "this time my father objected !"

On our first wedding anniversary my aunt gave us a colour TV as a present. She said, "Beti, the colour TV is for your husband, this remote control is for you."
