    Yeah. But the point being you are really aiming too high the geek thing. And you don't want to be a geek that looks like a geek.

    Fer sure. That model looks like he could use a gym and some sunshine
    C programming resources:
    GNU C Function and Macro Index -- glibc reference manual
    The C Book -- nice online learner guide
    Current ISO draft standard
    CCAN -- new CPAN like open source library repository

    tshirt.cpp: warning: 'obscure programming joke' undefined
    Shouldn't that be an error?

    Yeah, but I thought about the consequences, and decided that the shirt wouldn't exist should there be an error. So the shirt compiled, but there's no joke on it. Well, technically there is... it's sort of a paradox.

    How bad will it be if someone tells you "Dude, you have one big bug on your t-shirt!"?

    Some of my fav coding t-shirts that I've seen at work:

    Code:
    while (awake)
    {
       code();
    }
    I'm not slacking off...my code is compiling.

    Bubba: Do I have your permission to use that one?

    I think I'd go with that on back and a more simplified formulation of the P v NP problem on front (namely P not equal NP rather than the set-theoretical one with NPC)

    Aisthesis has discovered a truly marvelous proof of that, but the T-shirt is too narrow to contain it.

    BTW, defending P != NP makes as much sense as defending P = NP, which is: It makes no sense at all.

    P != NP appears to me also very self-conceited by treating current human abilities as pretty much all we ever need in order to advance science indefinitely. It also brushes against my own nihilistic beliefs.

    Regardless, supporting one position or another without what constitutes yet real proof is definitely rather unscientific. You may as well put malformed code on the back of the t-shirt to go with it. It would be more coherent.

    And, btw, by believing in P != NP without the ability to prove it, one is in fact making a strong case for P = NP.

    EDIT: Eh, seems DavidP had the same thought while i was writing this. This post is meant for Aisthesis.

    I do not see how that is the case.

    Anyway, an easy fix is to ask instead: P = NP ?
