@tsarstepan,
Quote:
Can some IT guy explain the tech jargon in this one please?


The "sudo" command in UNIX stands for "superuser do". It prompts you for your personal password and confirms your request to execute a command by checking a file, called sudoers, which the system administrator configures. Using the sudoers file, system administrators can give certain users or groups access to some or all commands without those users having to know the root password. It also logs all commands and arguments so there is a record of who used it for what, and when.

"su" command on the other hand lets you switch user login with another username.

So basically the guy "robm" is trying to screw system privileges by logging in as super user on UNIX and potentially acting "naughty". But because "sudoers" maintains a log of these high secuirty activities, the user is curious who uses the log of the sudoers file.

It turns out to be Santa!

The following joke was indirectly tweeted by Michael Donahoe:

"Consider a spherical cow" http://t.co/Ep6uPCr


Quote:
Milk production at a dairy farm was low so the farmer wrote to the local university, asking help from academia. A multidisciplinary team of professors was assembled, headed by a theoretical physicist, and two weeks of intensive on-site investigation took place. The scholars then returned to the university, notebooks crammed with data, where the task of writing the report was left to the team leader. Shortly thereafter the physicist returns to the farm, saying to the farmer "I have the solution, but it only works for spherical cows in a vacuum."
