[–] 95 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (6 children)

There are 10 kinds of people in this world.

  • Those that know binary.
  • Those that don't.
  • And those that didn't expect this joke to be in base 3.

EDIT:

A statistician, a biologist, and a mathematician are sitting in a cafe watching the building across the street. 2 people enter the building. Some time later, 3 people come back out.

  • The statistician says, "Our initial count must've been off."
  • The biologist replies, "I think they probably reproduced."
  • The mathematician observes, "Now if exactly one person enters the building it will be empty."

    My favourite is: There are two kinds of people, those that can extrapolate from incomplete data.

    I suppose we could combine them.

    There are 10 kinds of people...
