Well yeah, they explain how numbers are stored in a computer and whatnot. It's just that for most software programming, it isn't a terribly interesting or difficult to solve problem. I suppose after so long working with graph algorithms and Turing theory, people might forget these things, but it doesn't take a great deal of training to remember that numbers have limits in computers. I think this is more a case of simple stupidity than lack of education.
