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.

/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/.
