so i was talking to mootykins and he told me that he was thinking that /prog/ would be a great forum to axe. considering it doesnt meld well with the whole 4chan theme, its gone to astray. so /prog/, what will you do when your precious forum is gone?

/prog/ is filled with the most dangerous people on 4chan, interweb-wise

Actually, this says more about 4chan than it does about /prog/.

No EXPERT PROGRAMMER worth his salt would post on Trevorchan. Piece of shit doesn't even have proper BBCODE support.

Besides the fact that it's a fucking image board (failure), running fucking Trevorchan (major failure), I just read the sticky and died a little.
My recommendation is of course, C. It teaches you common syntax and code flow, as well as memory management which is a good way to get an initial grasp on data handling. It's an unforgiving code, and that's exactly what you need when you are learning. Learning a code that allows for mistakes and simplicity means you'll be a second-rate coder. I also strongly recommend AGAINST lisp. Why, especially when it's (supposedly) a great language for learning about math, data management and data manipulation? Because you don't need to know about that shit until you can crank out some working fucking programs.
I was already at a loss for words, then I scrolled down and saw fantastic claims, like the fact that Javascript isn't a programming language and such pearls like this follow up by the idiot who started the thread: Lisp can teach you a lot of shit, but the shit it teaches you can be taught in any other language, just apparently 'not as easily'(ha). And yes, I read SCIP. Not even worth reading. That's right, I said it. If you already know how to work with 'OH SO ADVANCED' topics like recursion, as well as fairly common data structures like lists and trees, then there's no real point reading the book. SCIP
Retard or greatest troll?

Neppyman and Timbus are fagging up /pr/. My sticky, transparent pixel image: Please use the code tag when posting code. This is not /halp/.
Neppyman replaces it with a bloated version and a shitty image from "Hackers".
And then Timbus makes his thread sticky for no reason. He's a fucking dramawhore who likes to think he is an EXPERT PROGRAMMER.
uhhhh..... I got permabanned from 4-ch for posting
"I'm a 4-ch level programmer. I don't talk with you chumps in programming club, I don't read your "computer magazine" with new releases I saw two years ago. I don't need to go to a club full of fat smelly people to code the factorial all over again. I've got fuckin' live feed RSS of the newest coding languages you haven't even hear of, and sources from said languages being shipped to my house so I can masturbate on them. Go read your "SICP" on lisp.net, I'm downloading loli dojinshi and reading the fucking raws.
You keep coding your haskell and shit, socializing with your coding friends. I'll be walking by, Anonymous. You'll never know that the master of programming had passed you by, because I suppress my power level."

They're a bit more serious there. Also, they are programmers so they're going to know trollious copypasta when they see it.
10:54 < Hinaichigo> moots: someone told me you might delete /prog/ in the future, is this true?
10:55 <~moots> no
10:55 <~moots> comp or tech maybe
10:55 <~moots> since theyre the same thing
mostly >>38 has it down,
but I think it might be a good idea for us to write irc bots in scheme and rush the 4chon irc channel while's moot's doing his moot thing.
Most /a/ posters are also /prog/rammers.
It makes sense; people who like anime are usually the nerdy type who are typically programmers, and vice versa.

Pretty sure /a/ fails.
<Anonymous> Common LISP > Scheme <Abelson> Actually, Python is better than both. <Anonymous> they aren't comparable, python isn't functional its imperative. gb2/cs/ you fucking wannabe nerd.
The notion of cardinality, as now understood, was formulated by Georg Cantor, the originator of set theory, in 1874–1884. Cardinality can be used to compare an aspect of finite sets; e.g. the sets {1,2,3} and {4,5,6} are not equal, but have the same cardinality, namely three (this is established by the existence of a one-to-one correspondence between the two sets; e.g. {1->4, 2->5, 3->6}).

Using König's theorem, one can prove κ < κcf(κ) and κ < cf(2κ) for any infinite cardinal κ, where cf(κ) is the cofinality of κ.

The formula would be useful neither to compute the force between two objects of finite mass nor to compute their motions. If an infinite mass object were to exist, any object of finite mass would be attracted with infinite force (and hence acceleration) by the infinite mass object, which is not what we can observe in reality.

The most widely studied systems of axiomatic set theory imply that all sets form a cumulative hierarchy. Such systems come in two flavors, those whose ontology consists of:

One way to prove that a class is proper is to place it in bijection with the class of all ordinal numbers. This method is used, for example, in the proof that there is no free complete lattice.
