How can programmers live like that? :(

I can tell you didn't read the page I linked. Listen to the man's story, faggot.

I don't know about >>2, but I certainly didn't read >>1's story. It got boring, but I'd like to read some programming story that won't bore me, please link me some.

You're all a bunch of idiots for not being interested in this topic.

How is Intellisense a bad thing? It alleviates 90% of all errors coded by myself!

I think the writer of that article needs to get a gun, and one bullet.

Maybe some of us aren't interested because we've read it and discussed it enough already.

>For example, for many years programmers have debated whether it’s best to code in a top-down manner, where you basically start with the overall structure of the program and then eventually code the more detailed routines at the bottom. ... Well, the debate is now over [due to IntelliSense].

Methinks the author is a bit of an idiot.

Gee, I don't know. Perhaps if you read the article, you'd know. He doesn't even say Intellisense is universally bad.

Because only idiots would change their coding style to appease their shitty development tools.

Sure. A person is going to fight their tools every step of the way. Regardless, my point is that so many programmers are living in this hell. This is the state the industry is in. Isn't it sad that so many programmers are living like he is?

Yes. I become especially enraged when I think of all the shitty IDE-generated code that's probably in use everywhere.

So, could anyone please tell me how to generate a random number in a given range in Haskell?

I think you need a RandomNumberFactory for that.

Eh, it annoys me how they bash VS, but they don't mention NetBeans, Eclipse, and friends. Clearly an anti-Microsoft bias

damn, that was long.
i somehow read it all though. it was good.

the guy writes books about Windows programming; he probably couldn't care less about non-VS IDEs

As >>26-san said, look at him: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/93/Charles_petzold.png

I somehow doubt he uses NetBeans and Eclipse.

No you haven't. I can tell but your post, as I've seen many /prog/ posts in my time.

Actually, "could care less" is the correct saying. Because think about it, suppose you're talking about foo, and you say "Ugh, I could care less about foo." What you're saying is, foo is so insignificant, so not worth my time, that my ability to care less about foo, could actually be less then what it currently is.

The phrase "could care less" makes little sense in the context it is most used in. It's like taking a gigantic, ass-reaming shit, and saying "I could shit more", when in fact you mean that you couldn't shit more because you just took a rather impressive shit.

yes, but you need to take nigger speak into account.
niggers say "bad", but they actually mean "good";
so isn't it plausible that  >>34 is a nigger & ∴ correct (due to the nigger reversal of logic)?

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I first discovered it yesterday and was left amazed and saddened by what I read therein. Such a contrast between his comfortable habits and his base programmer instincts. I could almost feel it tearing him apart.
