<h1 id="humor">Humor</h1>
<p>How boring would our lives be if we didn’t have the resort of humor.
The Allegro community, apart from providing excellent game programming
code, continues to discuss strange subjects, sometimes bordering the
thin line between fiction and reality…</p>
<h2 id="allegro-related-humor">Allegro related humor</h2>
<dl>
<dt><a href="docs/april_1st_2000.en.html">Aliens have landed!</a></dt>
<dd>
One of the first April fool day jokes. Nobody knew what would come
afterward.
</dd>
<dt><a href="docs/april_1st_2001.en.html">Allegro 4.0 beta</a></dt>
<dd>
Just when many had lost their faith and thought Allegro would stagnate
before reaching version 4.0, Shawn came and threw some light on the
subject.
</dd>
<dt><a href="docs/grozilla.en.html">Proposal for Allegro’s
future</a></dt>
<dd>
An imaginative proposal which was met with a sound silence, possibly
meaning that everybody was in agreement. It even <a

<dd>
With an excellent timing, Bob managed to announce the fantastic features
of the recent fifth incarnation of Allegro, this time even with mind
accelerated control! Could this be true?
</dd>
<dt><a href="docs/lzip_compression.en.html">A new compression
format</a></dt>
<dd>
The previous release of Allegro 5 creates some uncertainty among the
Allegro users who don’t know how to handle the new <a

A discussion about the development of Allegro 5 spawns a new port, it’s
time for the <a

Peter Wang sadly announces that development of Allegro 5 stagnates
favoring a <a

d’état</a> by Bob and migration of Allegro users to SDL.

A very long text which explains how sometimes software development
resembles the slow growth of… a big ball of mud.

The title says it all, a bunch of programmer jokes. Some really worth of
reading are the undocumented assembler instructions, the lesser-known
programming languages or the interview with Stroustrup about the truth
of C++. Terrifying.

<dd>
If programming languages could speak, really speak, not just crunch
bytes and stream bits, they would have much to say that is both wise and
profound. After all, the original programmers were philosophers, and
programming languages were philosopher tools…
