Programmers rejoice! For today is your day. The 256th day of the year.

I have no idea who came up with this day but I loved it. And here’s what I propose to spread the meme:

Send <your favorite gift> to yourself at work.

When someone asks, say:

- Oh, today is Programmer’s Day and <your beloved one> remembered me.

Let’s make this day and the greatness of our work known to all. Or better let’s make it a national holyday. Or better yet, let’s make it a world-wide holyday! After all we are prefectionists.
