Today is day 256 of the year, day unofficially chosen to celebrate the “Programmer day”.

Why the day 256?
It was chosen because it is the number of different combinations that can be represented with 8 bits, number well known among programmers. It is also the largest power of 2 less than 365, the number of days a year.

ProgrammerDay

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning. - Rick Cook

Happy programmer day!
