Nerd Christmas

Joke

Several years ago, I invented a nerd joke and always recall it each Christmas.

Q: Who brings presents to Database Administrators?
A:Santa Where-Claus

No idea where this picture came from, but I found it whilst looking through my pictures folder.

Nerd Christmas Tree

I found this in my chat history. It was a conversation between two software developers in the office which I overheard, then shared with other colleagues:

James: “Did you get your Christmas tree?”

Dave: “yes”

James: “Can you program it?”

I didn’t expect Dave to actually respond “Yes” then start talking about looping over the lights. It seems that programmable Christmas trees are a thing. I suppose it’s obviously a possibility to hook up some lights to an Arduino/Raspberry Pi etc.
It looks underwhelming to what I thought it would be.
