What is the Donut Rule?
400888
Two versions I'm aware of:\n\n1) Programmers version\n- In a shared code environment, if the last checked in code does not compile, the person who checked that code in, buys the donuts.\n\n2) Economic Theory/Law\nThe Donut Rule is often a way of explaining the law of diminishing returns.\n\neg. The first donut is brilliant!  The second is satisfying, the third is ok, the fourth makes you feel a little sick, the fifth makes you sit uncomfortably back in your chair and wanting a brief nap.\nEach subsequent donut is an attempt to recapture that initial feeling of bliss.\n\nThe law states however, that the enjoyment of each subsequent donut will diminish - hence:\n\nThe Donut Rule.

Our school dance team made about  $1,000 in 2 weeks by going with the Krispy Kreme donuts fundraiser. We had about 10 people on the team and each person sold about 20 boxes or something like that. $6 dollars a box, or 50 cents a donut. It's much more effective to sell the whole box though. They'll most likely buy it.(oh and my math's a little off because not everybody sold what they were supposed to). It works really well though.

Do you mean a donut puncher?\n\nA crude but often humorous reference to the male rectum. Often, it is in reference to anal sex with a male, thus the "punch" part of the definition. Also can be a reference to male fisting.

Here's the donut cross-section (cut it in half and look at the two cut ends, which are the circles):\n\nO O\n\nIf R is the distance from the center of the donut (the hole) to the center of one of the circles, and r is the radius of one of the circles, the surface area is:\n\nA = 4 * pi^2 * R * r\n\nAnd the Volume is:\n\nV = = 2 * pi^2 * R * r^2

Do you mean Robert's Rule of Order?  Here are some links.  the first one is the most basic.  Then other resources.

Rules (constraints) can be forman and informal.\nThe formal rules are the ones set by institutions, like the laws, central banks, etc.\nInformal rules are those non written like morals, codes of conduct, etc.\n\nIn all societies, people impose constraints upon themselves to give structure to their relations with others. Informal rules come from socially transmited information and are a part of the heritage that we call culture. Culture can then be defined as the "transmission from one generation to the next, via teaching and imitation, of knowledge, values, and  other factors that influence behavior".

Religion is rules and if you don't know the rules, you don't have religion. You might still not have religion even if you do know the rules because the rules are often pretty unpleasant and you can't just decide to ignore the ones you don't happen to like and still call yourself religious. That's against the rules.\n\nThe rule is, you don't get your turnstile token for the big easy if you don't lick Jesus's Rs. Being a really, really nice fella doesn't cut it. You got to lick that Rs or it's no go. Never mind that 'God's kingdom is for the good and the great and it doesn't matter if they weren't actually practising Christians'. That's not the rule. That's not the religion. The religion says 'here's the Lord's Rs, now lick it'

I'll give a guess\n\nI figure it's a term that people may use if foolishly spending money\n\nfrom dollars to doughnuts \n\ndoughnuts meaning nothing, zeros like the shape of a doughnut.\n\nthat's my guess.

Those traditional rules that are set up by history and the society. For example, it is acceptable in India to pee in the streets, while in France you'd be fined for that.

Sour cream cake donuts are oh so yummy; I drink water so it will not take away from the taste. Since water refreshes the palette, the donut stays sweet;-D
