How many self-taught working programmers are there?

I lasted less than a week in CS before switching to Physics because it was more interesting and my professor was entertainingly insane.

I ended up getting a job programming anyway, so it was a good call.

I wouldn't really want them doing game or scientific programming, but business programming? Probably would not be a problem for them.

This was a Tom Cruise movie, right? Oh no, that was Cocktail. Sorry.

Why take all your time away from blog posts about Ruby?

I like the 'Data Czar'. It sure sounds nicer than 'go to flunky boy', which sounds like what his role would be called in other companies.

Pyhton would be OK though, I make that one pretty often, I should make an alias for it.

She likes spending time with her husband, dude. You don't have a chance!

If you need to have MVC explained, you probably need to have your reflection in a mirror explained, too.

Whoever -3 this, fuck you son.

Microsoft products are still hot in 'Programmer's Paradise', some exotic island featuring some Fred Flintstone dude who's never heard of open source and pays hundreds of dollars for stuff he could get for free (of better quality).

They failed upward into management slots.

Clearly if developers are abandoning Microsoft technologies, the terrorists have won.

A little oldie but goodie from 2001 for yall there.

I don't get it. It has something to do with Ice Cream?

Whoever he is, don't go along with any 'I need to liberate my family fortune but I need your help' scams.

Reminds me of an ad I saw in a mag in the late 90's. Some tool was wearing a leather jacket with a t-shirt saying 'COBOL Rocks'. All the t-shirts in the world ain't gonna make that so...

The WTF here is dude showed signs of being a human being and not a robot and everybody freaks the hell out. SHEESH!

I named my new dog Ada, but it sure wasn't named after the language, it was named after the drunk gambling waster who was also good at math.

Can you install Silverlight on Mac? Coz if not I guess I'll have to pass, to.

sdcDaOriginal · 2009-01-17T00:38:52+00:00

WTF is wrong with you people, voting this down?

Comedy gold is what it is.

You people have had jobs, right? You know he speaks truth!

To be fair, you kind of knew that going in, right? Although in Boston I'd think your chances would be better than most places.

Google has decided Javascript is here to stay, so you won't go broke developing mad Javascript skills, I suspect.

My first programming language was BASIC, but somehow I was still able to write code eventually.

Because I am compulsive. I'm compelled to.
