  |  | #1661 |   | Bus error -- please leave by the rear door.
  |    |  | #1662 |   | But in our enthusiasm, we could not resist a radical overhaul of the system, in which all of its major weaknesses have been exposed, analyzed, and replaced with new weaknesses. 		-- Bruce Leverett, "Register Allocation in Optimizing Compilers"
  |    |  | #1663 |   | But this has taken us far afield from interface, which is not a bad place to be, since I particularly want to move ahead to the kludge. Why do people have so much trouble understanding the kludge?  What is a kludge, after all, but not enough K's, not enough ROM's, not enough RAM's, poor quality interface and too few bytes to go around? Have I explained yet about the bytes?
  |    |  | #1664 |   | "But what we need to know is, do people want nasally-insertable computers?"
  |    |  | #1665 |   | By long-standing tradition, I take this opportunity to savage other designers in the thin disguise of good, clean fun. 		-- P.J. Plauger, "Computer Language", 1988, April 		   Fool's column.
  |    |  | #1666 |   | BYTE editors are people who separate the wheat from the chaff, and then carefully print the chaff.
  |    |  | #1667 |   | Byte your tongue.
  |    |  | #1668 |   | C Code. C Code Run. Run, Code, RUN! 	PLEASE!!!!
  |    |  | #1669 |   | C for yourself.
  |    |  | #1670 |   | C makes it easy for you to shoot yourself in the foot.  C++ makes that harder, but when you do, it blows away your whole leg. 		-- Bjarne Stroustrup
