The latest issue of Mad Magazine (April 2023) is titled “MAD Takes Apart Technology”. The pages include reprints of past articles that relate to computers, such as “if computers are so brilliant” (Oct 1985), “13 things you never want to hear from a computer guy” (May 2005), various y2k, and some 50s/60s tech humor.

66 years ago, in 1957, Mad magazine had Donald E. Knuth's first published article!
"The Potrzebie System of Weights and Measures"
Some fans consider his later works, such as "The Art Of Computer Programming", to be even better.
