    Can you tell it's summer vacation?

    Less homework assignments are being posted.

    Sorry, I had to point that out.

    You could have said, "Nice, I think you've discovered the Da Vinci code..." It's way more constructive than "nice."

    Damn you "north-ists" with your "summer is coming"
    What about the southern hemisphere?
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    Doesn't summer vacation (for those in school) start around May 23 or so (give or take a day)? Then again, in other places around the world, it could be different. I've only seen school gong on until May 28 at the very latest and May 22 at the very earliest.

    What about June 20 and July 1? Some children have only 2 Months vacation...
    All problems in computer science can be solved by another level of indirection,
    except for the problem of too many layers of indirection.
