The current kernel/drivers of Fedora 24 do not support the Wifi chip used on my Mac Book Pro. Proprietary Broadcom drivers are packaged and available in the rpmfusion repo.

Verify that your card is a Broadcom using: lspci -vnn -d 14e4:

Sample output:

Discussion of korn.c, 1987 IOCCC entry, mentioned in http://stackoverflow.com/a/19214007/827263

korn.c is the "Best One Liner" winner of the 1987 International Obfuscated C Code Contest, by David Korn (yes, the author of the Korn Shell).

korn.hint, as the name implies, offers some hints.

A commenter on Stack Overflow asked for some clarification. I didn't want to post spoilers on the site, so I'm posting them here instead. If you haven't already (and if you're familiar with the rules of C) I encourage you to study the program for a while first.
