Jokes from chatGPT and about Medium publishers

I asked chatGPT to write its top ten jokes in software code. I wasn’t exactly thinking it will do this but here are some programming dad jokes wrapped up in basic function.

After that chatGPT has provided me with a funny joke of Medium publishers… 😆

  2. def tell_joke(): return “Why was the computer cold? Because it left its Windows open.”

  4. def tell_joke(): return “Why was the computer tired when it got home? Because it had too many tabs open.”
  5. def tell_joke(): return “Why was the Python programmer unhappy? Because he couldn’t use ‘import happiness’.”
  6. def tell_joke(): return “Why did the HTML element go to the doctor? Because it had a <headache>.”
  7. def tell_joke(): return “Why was the computer screen confused? Because it had too many ‘if’ statements.”

  10. def tell_joke(): return “Why was the computer upset? Because it was having a ‘hardware’ problem and couldn’t ‘software’ itself out of it.”
