  I get mixed feelings from this. Some of the "laws" sound like they're trying to be funny, but others a very real.

    Probably, you're at an experience level that would make some of them real. Wait for the others to become so :D I'm in the same crowd.

      How true. I'm sure the laws will seem funny to people not used to programming...

  ...Laws are supposed to be absolute. Many of these are not absolute.

  >It is easier to change the specification to fit the program than vice versa. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you enterprise software.

  Inside every small program is a large program struggling to get out. So true!! I've seen tiny self-contained applications turn into huge suites of software that no one - from the developers to the end users - had anticipated.
