No one in /prog/ has ever done any programming professionally.  We're all undergraduate CS students who stumbled here from /g/

Bourne shell, Perl, and DTrace; for sys admin stuff. Last several years, $74-82k.

A few graduate students roam around /prog/ as well.

/g/ is all about stroking your e-penis

I have, but only because I wanted to see how big a shithole it was. The rumors are true.

/g/ -> where you go to anonymously prove that your e-penis is bigger than everybody else's.
it's even less productive than /prog/

/g/ is nothing but MS fanboys, they could get repeatedly raped in the face by a well endowed e-peen and still need to be smacked with a clue-by-four to even know what happened.

European /g/ is pretty heavy on the alternatives.
I know because, uh, a friend told me... yeah.

Learn to tail-recursive optimization.

Explain how tail-recursive optimization is any different than iteration.

Lets take the average PHP "Developer"

Time worked(min): 2880 (2 days)
One off Payment: 500
Time worked in days:0.03333

Guys like that are pushing up their average with lies.

One might say tail recursion is a god awful small affair

compare the speed of this with the best iterative fib you can come up with:
threeFibs 0 = [1,0,1]
threeFibs 1 = [1,1,0]
threeFibs n = (\[a,b,c] [1,d,e] -> [a+b*d,b+c*d,b*d+c*e]) ((\[a,b,c] -> [a*a+b*b,b*(a+c),b*b+c*c]) . threeFibs $ div n 2) (threeFibs $ mod n 2)
fib n = threeFibs n !! 1

I compared F# and C#
The difference can be described as a god awful small affair, it really was quite negligible.
