Best Acheivements of /Prog/

Creating the archetypical "EXPERT PROGRAMMER" who we all secretly loath yet wish to be.

Discovering CDR is pronounced the same way as Cudder which means cunt.

Achievements.  Better luck next time.

i before e cept after c.

>>1
How do you pronounce Cudder though? Rhymes with Udder? Or is it Could-Her?

>>4
Udder.

According to Wikipedia, it's Could-Her. As in,  a cow chews her cudder

Quoting from the SICP, 2nd edition, footnote to p. 85:
Car stands for "Contents of Address part of Register" and cdr (pronounced "could-er") stands for "Contents of Decrement part of Register."
Also, if you pronounce "could" like "cud", you should probably spend some time swallowing razorblades.

>>6
Uhh... according to Wikipedia it's 'kʌ dər or 'ku dər.

ITT cudder vs coulder

These aren't achievements.

There have been some real gems of useful information posted to /prog/ in the past. But it's so rare that those are the real achievements.

Today at work, I saw these pamphlets which said, ``Your other Job, Your Other Pay.''
I grinned as I couldn't help but think of ``My other Car.''

Uhh... according to me its not

/prog/ has taught me to use ``proper quotes''.

HA

What pathetic twerps you are, you all fight over you linux and windows..

I USE VMS I AM A REAL MAN.

>>20
I use Plan 9, fucker.

http://guillaume.fournier6.free.fr/
These are my biggest project

>>22
Coded fully in C
Monsterfail.

>>23
C > your shitty interpreted language

>>24
Even Common LISP?

>>25
You mean Common Lisp, the awesome compiled language? I don't see how >>24 even mentioned that.

>>24
Using C where it doesn't provide any advantage = sign of the moron.

Also, nobody is going to download binaries from a 4chan user.

>>27

You're just mad because you can't cope with C's awesomeness.

>>28
Yeah well, read SICP.

/prog/ made me read SICP. Now I finally got a job.

>>27
C does provide an advantage for me almost everywhere: I've got 13 years of experience in it (started using it at the tender age of 13). Don't just count the features of the language, is what I'm saying.

>>31
I think that C does provide an advantage for me almost everywhere: I've got 13 years of experience in it
Fix'd.

I've used C longer than any other programming language, for a bit over ten years, and I know it better than most other languages. Do I use it for most things? No. My last big project is written in almost 100% Python and contains less than 200 lines of C code.

Knowing C well doesn't mean that you don't need to waste massive amounts of programming time implementing elementary functionality that is not even a part of your problem domain.

>>32
As always, elementary functionality comes from a library. Linked lists, red-black trees, hashes, error propagation and so forth.

>>33
so is your code as concise as python code?

>>34
No, but I've got a better runtime. And a compiler that warns for, you know, misspelled variable names.

>>35
And a compiler that warns for, you know, misspelled variable names.
I don't know what you're doing wrong, but I do know you're doing something wrong if misspelled variable names are ever a problem for you.

>I don't know what you're doing wrong, but I do know you're doing something wrong if misspelled variable names are ever a problem for you.

Obviously he is just saying typos happen, and it is nice when the compiler is good about warning about them.  Don't take it way out of proportion.

>>35
>>37
Ok, now switch python with any concise, compiled programming language which warns about misspelled variable names (a programming mistake as silly as segfault).
now? what is your answer?

>>38
ONE WORD, FORCED INDENTATION OF THE CODE, THREAD OVER

One day, /prog/ is going to form their own cadres. And then it'll be cudders for all, except eunuchs (who wouldn't know what to do with one anyway). We would not carry combat rations, instead towing around singly linked chains of canned tuna. Truly it will be the start of a new era, when the unwashed masses will meet forced indentation of code or they will meet the forced indentation of their skulls.
