TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I ran across the following sentence in a tutorial today, and thought it was
hilarious.
"Avoid a recursive hierarchy where two or more objects try to trace each
other. Examples of recursion are obj1 > obj2 > obj1. Or obj1 > obj2 > obj3
> obj1. The outcome of such motions are unpredictable and likely to be Bad."
Well, ok -- that's clear enough! :)
