Congratulations to all Programmers and Computer related Workers! The unofficial Programmer's Day is celebrated on the 256th day of the year. Number 256 is selected because it is the amount of numbers that can be expressed by one byte.

is it the 256th day for this year? hmm... i'll have to create a script to check that. I didn't know programmer's have their 'day'. 256 was selected because you can't have 512 anymore.

I have never heard of 'Programmers Day', it's seems there is a day especially for something everyday. Ha Ha did Boeing have a special day for there 7-4-7 plane this year. Can anyone else think of some more days that could be celebrated like this. Have Fun.
