Luckily no one is seriously injured, and they set out to figure out what happened. They start down a hill when the brakes give out and they crash into a tree at the bottom of the hill.

Not exactly programming per-se, but cute:Ī mechanical engineer, an electrical engineer, and a software engineer from Microsoft are in a car together, driving to a conference. (Apparently the programmers had forgotten the remove “that” part of the infantry coding). and then did a double-take as the kangaroos reappeared from behind a hill and launched a barrage of stinger missiles at the hapless helicopter. The kangaroos scattered, as predicted, and the Americans nodded appreciatively. The head of the Defense Science and Technology Organization’s Land Operations/Simulations division reportedly instructed developers to model the local marsupials’ movements and reaction to helicopters.īeing efficient programmers, they just re-appropriated some code originally used to model infantry detachments reactions under the same stimuli, changed the mapped icon from a soldier to a kangaroo, and increased the figures’ speed of movement.Įager to demonstrate their flying skills for some visiting American pilots, the hotshot Aussies “buzzed” the virtual kangaroos in low flight during a simulation. I don't have time for relationships, or sex - but a talking frog? SO COOL!"Īs virtual reality simulators assume larger roles in helicopter combat training, programmers have gone to great lengths to increase the realism of the their scenarios, including detailed landscapes and - in the case of the Northern Territory’s Operation Phoenix - herds of kangaroos (since groups of disturbed animals might well give away a helicopters position). The frog looks up at the coder and says, "What the fuck is wrong with you man? I offered to marry you, I offered to screw you, but STILL you won't turn me back into my human form." He gets home, takes the now severely depressed frog out of his pocket and sets it down in an aquarium. Deal?", the programmer laughs and puts the frog away again. Ten minutes later, the frog says, "Look, if you kiss me, I'll have sex with you all day, every day. The frog says, "I am actually a Princess! If you kiss me, I'll revert back to my human form and be forever grateful?", the programmer smiles and puts the frog back in his pocket.Īgain, the frog says, "But I really am! I would even marry you if you kiss me and turn me back into a human!", the programmer chuckles and puts the frog away again. A Computer Programmer finds a frog by the side of the road.
