Useless Statements

Name: Pissed Off Programmer 2008-03-30 21:02

Are there actually any real programmers even frequenting this board?

because it seems to me that the only people posting responses are:

1. making fun of grammar
2. saying not to help the person
3. making an obvious and unhelpful statement
4. insulting the OP's intelligence
5. insulting the OP's choice of prog language (regardless of what it is)
6. Insulting the OP's Operating system (regardless of what it is)
7. Making a statement that is inaplicable in the situation, or
8. Using some form of leetspeak/pseudocode to insult or otherwise make a statement that is moot or inapplicable


so i would find it interesting if those that frequent this board fill out a quick questionaire:

A. Your Age
B. Your Level of Education
C. Your Experience with Programming (list all applicable)
and finally
D. Your current Occupation and Paygrade

Ill start with the next post...

A. 50
B. I have an MA in Mathematics and an MSc in Astrophysics
C. 33 years, including FORTRAN IV, Pascal, 'C', Ada, Basic (IBM PC and Tektronix micros), Bliss, Z80 Assembler, TPU, C++, Java, C#, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, F#, Erlang, Scala -- and maybe one or two more that I've forgotten
D. Principal Design Engineer; which means everything from component design under a top-level architecture to coding and bug-fixing, with a large side order of old fashioned hacking to plug design oversights as a troubleshooter.  On enough to be very  comfortable, but not enough to be able to retire.
