Inner City Schools and Databases

Listen up, buttercup. This joke plays on the phrase "race condition." In computer science, a race condition is when the output of a program depends on the unpredictable order in which different parts of the program execute. Basically, things get messy when different processes try to access the same resource at the same time. The joke equates this to the problems in inner city schools, implying that they're also due to "race conditions," which is a dark and edgy way of saying racial issues might be involved. Bet you didn't see that coming, did you?
