A constant and e^x are walking down the street when they
see a differential operator approaching.
The constant panics and runs away, naturally, but e^x says
"Ha, watch this, coward, I'll go shake hands with him."
When e^x introduces himself, the differential operator says
"Hi, I'm d/dy."

A physicist, a biologist, and a mathematician are watching a building.
At 1:00, two people enter the building.
At 1:30, two people leave the building.
At 2:00, another person leaves the building.
They gather to discuss this.
The physicist says: "Clearly, we must have made an error in our observations."
The biologist says: "Well, according to the laws of nature, they must have reproduced."
The mathematician says: "Now, if one more person enters the building, it will be empty again."

ex and a constant are walking down the street. They turn into a dark alley, and a derivative operator jumps out of the shadows and blocks their path.
"Oh no," says the constant, "He's going to turn me into nothing!"
"It's okay," says ex, "I'm ex and I'm not afraid of derivative operators. They can't harm me."
So, ex walks down the alley and greets the derivative operator, "Hi, I'm ex."
And the derivative operator replies, "Hi, I'm d/dy."

Ahahaha oh wow...I thought usenet was populated by at least non-dumb people. It's the c++ newsgroup and they don't even know base conversion and calculus. el-oh-el.

This is a math joke, but math and programming are similar.
At the end of the year, all of the math functions decided to get together and have a little celebration. Everyone was there: sine, cosine, x squared, e to the x, all of the Taylor expansions...everyone. They were all having a good time, except for e to the x. X squared looked over to the corner and saw little e to the x just sulking with its head in its hands. Deciding that this was unacceptable, x squared walks over to e to the x and says: "Come on, e to the x, why not integrate?". To which e to the x replied "Why bother, it won't make a difference."
Once upon a time, (1/T) pretty little Polly Nomial was strolling through a field of vectors when she came to the edge of a singularly large matrix. Now Polly was convergent and her mother had made it an absolute condition that she never enter such an array without her brackets on. Polly, however, who had changed her variables that morning and was feeling particularly badly behaved, ignored this condition on the grounds that it was insufficient and made her way in amongst the complex elements. Rows and columns enveloped her on all sides. Tangents approached her surface. She became tensor and tensor. Quite suddenly, 3 branches of a hyperbola touched her at a single point. She oscillated violently, lost all sense of directrix, and went completely divergent. As she reached a turning point, she tripped over a square root protruding from the erf and plunged headlong down a steep gradient. When she was differentiated once more, she found herself, apparently alone, in a non-Euclidean space. She was being watched, however. That smooth operator, Curly Pi, was lurking inner product. As his eyes devoured her curvilinear coordinates, a singular expression crossed his face. Was she still convergent, he wondered. He decided to integrate improperly at once. Hearing a vulgar fraction behind her, Polly turned around and saw Curly Pi approaching with his power series extrapolated. She could see at once, by his degenerate conic and his dissipated terms, that he was up to no good.
"Eureka," she gasped.
"Ho, ho," he said. "What a symmetric little polynomial you are. I can see you are bubbling over with secs."
"Oh, sir," she protested. "Keep away from me. I haven't got my brackets on."
"Calm yourself, my dear," said our suave operator. "Your fears are purely imaginary."
"I, I," she thought, "perhaps he's homogeneous then."
"What order are you?" the brute demanded.
"Seventeen," replied Polly.
Curly leered. "I suppose you've never been operated on yet?" he asked.
"Come, come," said Curly, "let's off to a decimal place I know and I'll take you to the limit."
"Never," gasped Polly.
"Exchlf," he swore, using the vilest oath he knew.
His patience was gone. Coshing her over the coefficient with a log until she was powerless, Curly removed her discontinuities. He stared at her significant places and began smoothing her points of inflection. Poor Polly. All was up. She felt his hand tending to her asymptotic limit. Her convergence would soon be gone forever. There was no mercy, for Curly was a heavy-side operator. He integrated by parts. He integrated by partial fractions. The complex beast even went all the way around and did a counter integration. What an indignity to be multiply connected on her first integration. Curly went on operating until he was absolutely and completely orthogonal.
When Polly got home that night, her mother became frightened and stated "You're traveling in a forward direction to your auntie + uncle unit in the graph of Bel Air." I whistled for a cab and when it approached, the license plane said "New" and there were dotted cubes in the reflector, if anything I could state that this cab had a lesser chance than the rest but I thought disregard that fact, if you could operator, follow the lines that lead to Bel Air! I approached the compilation of three dimensional objects about 7/12 or 2/3 and I yelled to the operator attention, smell you some other time on this planar area! Looked at my Math house, My graph had finally reached a closed point, to finalize on my algorithmically correct point as the prince of the graph known as Bel Air.

Holy shit, I remember making this thread. This thread marked the gestation of the other car meme, which I invented.
