Dork At Stanford Raps About UNIX Commands

Not even a minute into this video and I was cracking up. It’s not even because he’s rapping (poorly) about UNIX-commands, it’s that this is the biggest display of geekism ever. The beats are not fresh, the bassist has a frickin’ music stand to read notes off of, and the keyboardist is wearing the most unfashionable glasses to date. Oh, and last time I checked, unless you’re The Roots or something, you don’t use a live percussion setup for hip-hop.

The lyrics are pretty funny though, so that makes up for everything else. Plus these dudes are completely serious, so have a gander and I’m sure you’ll day will become just a little better.

  • dorks…great use of computer language in the lyrics… i think i counted two girls in the crowd.

    OMFG there is a comment on crunchgear

  • He says, “You’re like a synchronous sock that doesn’t know when to block”, but synchronous sockets always block, and they don’t have an option to “know when to block”. He should set his “sock” to non-blocking, then they lyrics might make sense.
