Twitter only had enough engineers remaining to keep it on for one more night, but it miraculously kept working for eight.

I have performed an unscientific survey of people who are working in coding and cybersecurity to see what language they use most often.

The result: profanity.

I have decayed
the works
that were in
your kingdom

and which
you were probably
saving
for gazing upon

Forgive me
they were colossal
so vast
and with such cold command

"You are old, Mr. Williams," the young man decreed,
"And you scarcely can wriggle your thumbs,
And yet you write notes like confessional screeds
About empty iceboxes and #plums!"

"In my youth," said the poet, "I wouldn't have dared
To be halfway so hungry and bold,
But once they were spotted, they couldn't be spared:
Delicious, so sweet and so cold!"

Once upon a day of beauty, while constructing conserves fruity
In a jam-pan overflown with sugar sweet and damsons raw
Gathered I your plums nutritious from the ice-box: cold, delicious
And I knew you'd be suspicious but this jelly you'd adore
E'en the gods do grant forgiveness bribed with buttered toast galore
Tea comes with it, furthermore.
