Family Tree Software Cycles

Text on the meme

Cycles in family tree software I am the developer of some family tree software (written in C++ and Qt). I had no problems until one of my customers mailed me a bug report. The problem is that the customer has two children with their own daughter, and, as a result, he can't use my software because of errors.

What it means

A Stack Overflow screenshot shows a developer discussing family-tree software that crashes because a customer has children with his own daughter, creating cycles in the family graph. The absurd incestuous family structure is treated as a software bug, making this useful as a reaction to bizarre edge cases or impossible data.
