Things we hate about software

I wish it was easier to get a job programming without having to go through three or more years of shit that I already know.

Honestly... the bunch of retarded assholes I've had to work with at uni. (lecturers and students alike)... They do it because they have nothing else to do, "oh, I know how to use a computer; I should do a computer science course!" You know the type. These kids who come onto IRC or /prog/ asking dumbass questions like "how come I get an error when I append two strings with +?" Or worse, those who play games and use a bit of software, and suddenly they think they can write it.

There was one asshole on a course I did who could barely handle HTML and he wanted to do a games programming course. Like fuck, man.

Why are "programmers" these days so fucking illiterate? I know, there'll be some mistakes in what I've written here; it happens. But at least I make the effort to be coherent. AND THEN you have the hypocritical literacy nazi: he corrects your "u" and "dont" to "you" and "don't", but when you mention his crazy-ass capitalisation like that moron in another thread today, or random insertion of commas, he's like "you're being pedantic" or simply "no you're wrong." Fucking hypocrites.

ITT we bitch about everything and everyone we really hate in the software industry/comunities/internets/etc..

Also, what's so cool about Eric S. Raymond? Why do people always want to suck his dick, after he wrote that retarded "how to be a hacker" bullshit?

gtfo tripfag

Meh; if you can't be bothered reading what I've said because there's a trip code on it then I really hope you get run over while crossing the street or something.

You don't understand 4chan.

I hate Java enterprise business shit.

I use people who don't bother to spell properly (aka: lol wuts up?) as a filter.

Not everyone who spells properly is intelligent, and not everyone who spells like a SMS twit is an idiot, but there is a high correlation.

Also, I can't stand enterprisey. I did it once, and never again.

How do you know that?

We all know that, for you are a tripfag.

Drop your tripcodes and embrace anonimity. It is the only respectable choice.

the bunch of retarded assholes I've had to work with at uni. (lecturers and students alike)...

What's your point? There are idiots everywhere. Learn to cope with them, and avoid them. If nothing else, college is a good place to learn how to recognize who are competent and who are not.

I enjoy college :)

I know the feeling. First year, first semester, I had to work in a team that couldn't write code to save their lives. The submission for that subject was 100% my work (got 19 out of 20 marks for that.) That was the first and last straw. I went into the advanced streams and haven't had that problem since, and no longer am I surrounded entirely by idiots.

Go advanced. It's less *head-desk*.

Meme version: Their minds were too occupied in deciding between their car and their cdr.

People who are complete idiots, and when they ask you for help on an exercise, you end up fixing every fucking mistake in their program and explaining why.

HEY TRIPFAG

GTFO.

When you mess with the tripfags, you mess with Mr Satori.

Suddenly, tripfags!

hai guys, wuts goin on in this thread

Hm?

is smart enough to be tolerated by actual smart people, but too dumb to adopt proper humility.

wow they let you work in teams. at ours they made it as if working together was cheating...yet you ended up turning in the same program as everyone else.  we formed a little group to make the program together and they would always score higher yet all the group did was change names of shit. i would rather work in a group, then on my own. if the group is full of idiots, my ego gets inflated, if it is full of people like myself, then the program our group produces makes others look like shit.

you're a slimey toad

This thread is now about retards who studied Games Computing at Lincoln University and have now moved back into their parental units basement

True

Work for a __BIG__ company and you will see that college / uni is just a joke. At the university the worst there is, are dumb asses that cant code. But in big companies there are people that can't code shit and are called "Software Engineers". Some of them even get paid way better than you, just because they are in the company longer than you. They might even have "seniority" oder you... They will make the simples problem a huge "Engineering Task" and "integrate" the "platform solution" by "decoupling the application" with "XML".

there is already a thread about it

Asking I suggest you read SICP and   read it You   think SICP was   this the intent   of trolling 2   Why response is   not forthcoming the   program shuts down   The call is   usually encrypted so   that it cannot   be detected or.

Are you GAY?
Are you a NIGGER?
Are you a GAY NIGGER?

If you answered "Yes" to all of the above questions, then GNAA (GAY NIGGER ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA) might be exactly what you've been looking for!

Don't change these.
