/prog/ metadiscussion

I think /prog/ is slipping, a lot.

Recently theres been a lot of talk about HTML, Java, plz help me hack, BB-fucking-code! and worse people in fucking reddit are linking to us.
This is not acceptable, there are encrption and compression threads getting ignored while people discuss PHP in detail.

Fucking "memes" starting to take over like "IM AN EXPERT CODER" or "IVE READ SICP", "PYTHON HAS THE FORCED INDENTATION OF CODE" and this shit, come on grow the fuck up.

Can you really live with yourselves after letting /prog/ get like this?
Its time to fucking do somthing, we need less of this shit and more worthwhile discussion about type inference and compilers/interpreters and stuff.

/g/ has been through this same drama over and over. 4chan attracts /b/-tards; just accept it and learn to skip garbage posts, MOST of 4chan, quickly. Usenet is still pretty active if you want more seriousness. Also code posting sites like codeproject, codeguru, experts-exchange are naturally more useful. If you know of others like those, please mention them.
