I blame management for the existence of option d
Same. It’s the exception rather than the rule when they DON’T set unrealistic deadlines while understaffing and underpaying.
I remember having a lot of trouble with those questions - not so much because I was underage, but because I didn’t grow up with US pop culture and sports.
For the d) answer:
(On my work laptop)
Where can I get this sticker?
This is not a high priority ATM. Please open a ticket and we will get to it ASAP.
Was from an order on LTT’s store.
But this was from an older sticker release wave :/Best case: You order your own sticker sheet of holographic foil stickers.
I like: how many Germans does it take to screw in a light bulb?
One. They are very efficient, but not very funny.
Many Hans make light work!
Poor lighting is no laughing matter.

It’s not obvious why the answer is one.
All four answers work though.
Indeed. My favorite is b as it genuinely surprised me 😁
I would guess that B is the “correct” answer because it shows you’re old enough to know a sex joke when you read one.
100, 1 to hold the light bulb and 11 to de bug the house
Yeah, there are 10 types of people
People who understand binary, people who don’t understand binary, and people who realize the joke was in ternary all along.
That’s some JS shit I am too backend dev to understand /s
How many IT security people does it take to screw in a light bulb? 50 to Palm the work off on the service desk and another 250 to block service desks access to be able to screw in the light bulb.
Another few hundred to make it seem like the original IT security were actually useful… IT support get are still at the same amount of people… They do the work and they get the blame.
Might be obvious, IT security at my company have no fucking idea what they’re doing and just making random shit up to keep their jobs alive.
I now have to do IT support with one hand tied behind my back…
Had a PSU blow up and light on fire in the office, put in an it ticket, dude showed up said yeah everything’s fine bye
The real answer is management needs atleast 3-5 meetings to first discuss this with 10 developers 10 upstream developers 10 downstreams developers and business team for all. And after we spent 2-4 weeks of all this a lone developer who’s been saying we just screw it in gets the approval to do exactly that
Plus several meetings with the customer to see if there is budget for an upgrade, discuss if they want if brighter, bigger or more efficient, and writing it down in specifications so nobody can say they needed it to be bigger the moment you walk in with the new bulb. Also maybe schedule a few demo lighting sessions to get everyone up to speed and a bit of training for the light switch operator to handle this new responsibility.
Once it goes through CAB of course
It makes me think about how many country artists it takes to change a light bulb…
Six. One to change the bulb while the other five sing about how good the old one was.
Possible plot twist: there is no correct answer and to pass this age check you should skip this one.
It’s actually the opposite (this one is only there for entertainment so all the answers are counted as correct), but good guess! 😁
Do not worry. Alt-X bypasses the question.
Which is unnecessary for this particular one, since it’s one of the ones where all of the answers are considered correct 😁
They really tried hard to keep kids out of the game!!1! :D
They did on plenty of the other questions, but I for one am happy that they failed as I loved the game as a 7yo 😄
“If a programmer can change a lightbulb in 5 minutes, 5 programmers can change a ligthbulb in 1.”
So if a couple can have a baby in 9 months, 9 couples can have a baby in a month?
We will deliver one baby per month, yes.
Spoken like a true sales person
Create one baby in 9 months. Without loss of generality, assume a spherical baby. Every following month, use Banach-Tarski to turn one baby into two. Repeat exponentially for 2^n babies in month n+9.
Can you put that into big O notation?
Assuming no communication overhead, yes.
No, you can have 9 babies in 9 months, but you won’t have 1 baby in 1 month.
You can if you staggered them in anticipation of requirements!
I dunno. How big a baby?
I don’t remember, that was a long time ago, but I think the answer must have been B., considering the rest of the game.
Yes, I played the game in 1987.
Yes, I’m old.
My uncle had it on his computer. I redid that quiz a bunch of times because the older you seemed, the more of the first lady’s pixels were visible! I remember there being at least 50 pixels …
My favorite question was " what happened at the bay of pigs" the correct answer was “a big mistake”
That was LSL3
Same, same. The US and cold war politics questions were easy for me as my father would graph about that stuff while reading the newspaper
1, but it takes 12 hours because of the amount of documentation they need to do
Not in 1987.
How many programmers does it take to screw in a light bulb?
a. None, it’s a hardware problem.
b. None, programmers can’t fit in light bulbs.
c. 100. One to hold the bulb and 99 to debug the house.
d. None so far, but they’ll get to it Real Soon Now.
All answers are correct.
