I'm so old I use a combination of lit and unlit candles to represent my age in binary on my birthday cake so I don't set off the smoke alarm.

Seven candles ought to do it for most people for a while.

A coupla years ago I told 'em they could use one candle if they striped it blue, red, black, gold. They didn't get it.

Hacker News has a low tolerance for this kind of humor. You just couldn't resist, could you?

Well, I was hoping for a cake that was ohm-made...
