Moot is looking for expert programmers

Name: Anonymous 2008-04-07 10:17

Are you a talented programmer local to New York, NY – Palo Alto, CA – or Richmond, VA?
If so, feel free to e-mail a resumé to moot@4chan.org along with a list of reasons why you don't suck.
Hell, if you work in advertising/marketing/PR/etc. or something like that, shoot me an e-mail as well.
Note: This is just a feeler. Don't expect a response, seriously. Also if you stink at programming, only know Java, or are remotely new to it ("HURR I'M IN CS101!"), please don't waste my time. Oh, and please don't attempt any sort of humor at all. Thanks!


What is moot trying to do here? Everyone knows you don't need half a brain to hack a imageboard script, maintain GNAA/Lunix servers or design a Web 2.0 website. Did he get that much money from ads that he's now able to start his own start-up company?

If I ever see Yotsuba Channel, Inc. in NASDAQ, I'm going to throw myself from a building.

Or is he just trying to score a job by pretending he's interested in programmers, when all he wants is contacts?

If you only know Java, what are you doing in /prog/?

Anything's better than nothing, I'm guessing.

I'm mailing him the /prog/snake. I bet he hasn't read his SICP today.

I'm pretty sure that if he wanted people to work on the site, the announcement wouldn't be written like that. Sure, it wards off /g/ idiots, but an EXPERT PROGRAMMER will just tell moot to fuck off if he was expected to hack php scripts.

This has to be for something else.

4chan admins already know that /prog/ is about. I can't find it in my logs, but I remember MrVacBob saying something along the lines of "/prog/ is /sicp/".

Well, I'm not so sure about that. We'll see, I guess.

Moot wants an expert programmer to fuck him. If he wanted someone to write his page he'd just call in an EXPERT PHP CODER.

Also, considering that hacking imageboard scripts can be outsourced to anywhere in the world, the location restriction makes me suspect this isn't about 4chan at all.

So, who's going to mail him the ``I wrote an ANSI C compiler at the age of 12'' resumé?

It gives me the impression they're looking for a person who's actually reliable or whathaveyou. As opposed to some random /b/tard who volunteered to add a couple of lines of PHP.

If it wasn't about 4chan, why on earth would you ask on the imageboards?

I'd apply for this but I'm in the UK so moot/whatever would probably ignore it.

Yes, but,

If you were working at PARC, why the fuck would you want to mess with moot's ugly futallaby's hack? The fact that he restricted it to these three places is what makes me think that he's looking for contacts within the EXPERT RESEARCH world rather than actual programmers.

Moot wants to sell something
But what the fuck could he sell?

Maybe open up his own weaboo import shop?

I think it's some kind of service where you can pay moot to get to blow him.

He pretty much hates weeaboo things now. He renegaded everything he hated about /a/ to /jp/. (Then the mods proceeded to throw everything they hated about /jp/ to touhouproject.com)

Though it's possible that he might want to set up his own J-List clone, only with more crap that /b/tards would eat up (LOL PEDOBEAR PLUSHIES EPIIIC WIIIIIN LULZ), which explains why they no longer advertise in 4chan...

Even if I ran OpenBSD, I would still claim to run FreeBSD or NetBSD, just for the purpose of annoying Theo de Raadt. He's one of the most trollable open source personalities out there.

Fuck off, moot. Stop messing with us by posting weird requests in the imageboards.

At least use the blotter so I don't have to look at that red text all the time.

YHBT, and read >>1 properly. It's a copypasta from some announce that moot posted somewhere.
