I wonder how long it will be before I'm going around saying "In my day, our bits could only be in one of two states!"
Maybe my kids say things like "We had to wait until our methods had been called before we calculated our return values! We couldn't rely on Just-In-Time-Reverse-Causality-Compilation to optimize our code! Get off my hyperlawn!"
- lutorm 16y agoIsn't a bit (BInary digiT) by definition in one of two states? Otherwise it would be a "tet" or a "quat"... ;-)
