You are beginning a new job as a programmer. You are the only programmer there. 2 programmers have quit shortly before you started.
You find a file named 00100001.txt on the desktop and in /root/ on one server.
Content:
> 01010010
> 01010101
> 01001110
> 00100001
What do you do?
turn 00110011 00110110 00110000 degrees and walk away
Realise that the binary translates to "RUN!" in ASCII.
I then wonder why someone would encode binary data as plain text. That's insanely wasteful and stupid.

Open up stackoverflow on my second monitor and start copy pasting because I'm a terrible developper who shouldn't have ever been given the job.

Delete it and call up the other 2 programmers that left to call them gay

1. Literally put the values into google.
2. Find this thread.
3. Realize it means "RUN!"
4. Take their brilliant advice and decide to go running, since you should really do some sport to prevent postural defects due to sitting every day.

Uninstall Windows. Linux doesn't have this problem.
Look for the application that the message wants me to RUN!
Probably just ignore it.
Delete the file.
