It died when the sussman disapproved us. It is not amusing anymore. No more LISP discussions (or any other toy language), lots of /pr/ faggotry, and people that think that anal jokes are funny.
I really enjoyed /prog/ last year. I'm leaving now.
In before nothing of value was lost: /prog/ can't lose anything more.
If Sussman disapproves of /prog/ but noone is there to hear it, is /prog/ still funny?
And then Anonymous was Enlightened.

This ties in with my belief that we all are born as randomly wired neural nets with no preconceptions, who are then trained to post to /prog/.

/prog/ died when people started posting this ``hax my anus'' bullshit. None of them ever hacked on a PDP, none of them ever wrestled with C before it was a choice, and none of them ever gave up sports, friends, and romance for our love of knowledge, and the power and beauty of the clear process of thought and computation. It's been beautiful, /prog/. but unfortunately you've been turned into that which we sought to escape from.
As we go into an age of desktop 64-bit computers, I offer /prog/ 64 bits of love. But it's no longer my /prog/, or the gentleman OP's /prog/.

/prog/ has had its own cancer (this is somewhat related to /b/'s cancer) for some time now. I guess this ``hma'' bullshit is the final symptom that will finally kill my beloved /prog/.

I have given up "sports, friends and romance" for the love of knowledge, but to me knowledge also includes things such as learning japanese, biology, physics, etc. Not just computers. I don't like people who are too tied to their computers, they tend to be uncultured about everything else, nerdy, and really annoying to talk to.
Don't worry, when someone posts real content I go anon and post a real reply. But most of the times, threads are shit, so I just *grabs dick*.

/prog/ can never die, it's greatness moves in a circular shape. right now we are just at a point where we are moving away from the highest point and moving to the lowest point. soon, we shall be back on the climb to the highest point again.

Nonsense. A pointer to pointer to string would be char *** or, assuming you meant array by string, char (**)[].
It cannot be "self-modifying". You little shit.
>>14 but to me knowledge also includes things such as learning japanese, biology, physics, etc. Not just computers.
You know why we talk only about programming here? Because it's a programming board. It's not random, helds up spor|<()))))))).

The only thing I like about 7chan is the 'girls in snow' board and it gets about a post per year. Also, just noticed 7chan is down.. has it been a long time?

Some say the Sussman contradicted himself when he said he disapproves of fanboyism but then outed himself as a fanboy of Galileo. Therefore, he may not be infallible anymore.
"Master Sussman, how come You disapprove of fanboyism while You Yourself are a fan of Old Master Galileo?" an anonymous student of the art of Computer Science asked the Sussman.
"It is so that I don't have any preconceptions of how to play Tic-Tac-Toe" the Master replied.
Anonymous spent a day and a night carefully considering this cryptic reply. After not being able to figure the meaning out, he again approached the Sussman.
"Master Sussman, I have went sleepless since yesterday, trying to decipher the meaning of your wise words. Please, explain their meaning to me!"
"YHBT. YHLTG. HAND."

I agree it is ridiculous, but don't tell me you didn't expect it to happen. The infestation ruining /prog/ isn't blind. The best I am hoping for is that this cancer will die out in about 4 months time if we all work together to completely disregard it.

We've been trying to. With this thread we failed. I'd discuss alternate solutions. I know alternate solutions.
