/b/tard here thinking about becoming a /prog/tard to learn some programming skills. !MILKRIBS4K told me to drop his name.

Anyways, post ending with 32 decides what language I learn first.

Plot is: Shutin nerd discover a box with living dolls which kick each others ass and eat the defeated dolls souls. Kinda like Highlander, but in Japan. And with magic.

The only part I agree with you on is learning proper way to write code. Reading K&R has made me want to kill myself at times.

Just redo it the way >>20-sensei said.  He pretty much got programming down right, and I wish I had learned it from him.

write all your work in Java, show them it, and they will likely reward you for showing them an enterprise solution that promotes code reuse and scalability. (This is how Bill Gates started his computer career, and he is now the richest man in the world.)

Dear god YES!

The General Public License (GPL) no "or later" clause is a horrible idea
that lets Richard Mao Stalinman (RMS) hijack your code
whenever he pleases.
If Linus hadn't removed it from the Linux source code,
the brainwashed RMS cultists would have
tainted the entire kernel with GPLv3,
and we would all be in the evil communist clutches
of the FSF right now and be forbidden to
run our software on the hardware RMS doesnt like.
So friends don't let friends use GPLv3 or later.
That way we'll always have the option to
use the GPLv2 if we want to,
and we can leave your friends behind.
'Cause your friends don't GPLv2,
and if they don't GPLv2 then they're
no friends of mine.

Did anyone else imagine midget RMS's dancing around handing out copies of the GPL or am I just crazy?

Uh, the GPL does mean free that way.  The GPL means free, as in it is free of cost.  You aren't free to do anything with it, in fact what you can do with it is very limited.

"Free software" is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept, you should think of "free" as in "free speech," not as in "free beer."

Free software is a matter of the users' freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software. More precisely, it means that the program's users have the four essential freedoms:

* The freedom to run the program, for any purpose (freedom 0).
* The freedom to study how the program works, and change it to make it do what you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
* The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2).
* The freedom to improve the program, and release your improvements (and modified versions in general) to the public, so that the whole community benefits (freedom 3). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.

Indeed, the GPL serves to render users ``free of liberty''.

Free software means it doesn't cost anything.  You aren't free to do whatever you want with it; hell, that's the reason the GPL was made - to restrict you from doing stuff with software.

The GPL was made to insure the freedom of software, by doing so it obviously has to restrict you from making GPL code proprietary.

You forgot PHP, motherfucker.

OP, learn PHP. Everyone else in this thread is trolling you. Python is shit.

Yes, Python is shit and overrated.
It's a language that should only be used by XKCD fans and teeny boppers.
However, I don't think OP should learn PHP first.

Use what you will like. Look at few perl tutorials, few pythons', few rubys'. Don't make other decide instead of you. Start making your choices.

Python's clean syntax and large number of libraries make it a fine choice for programming. Just because programming in another language is harder doesn't mean that it's better.

I have made my own choices about programming languages for almost two decades, but >>71 seems to indicate that my choice of using Python is wrong, since I'm not an XKCD fan or a teeny bopper. I'd like to be enlighted by his great wisdom, not your new-agey, wishy-washy crap about making my own choices.

As much as I dislike Python and Python users, I agree with you.
You shouldn't let other people decide which languages you like.

Python is a hipster language every bit as much as Ruby.

I know several people that use Python, and not a single one of them is even remotely hip.

Not real hipster, programmer hipster.
Python is just fashion. And like all fashions the tide will turn some day, another language will take it's fashionable place, and just as we laugh at clothes from the 80's, people will laugh at Python and wonder why anybody ever used it.
You should use a timeless language like C or Lisp, or a language that is resented, yet widely used and unlikely to disappear for a very long time like java.

Also, it's seems to only ever be used and advocated by people who ONLY know Python.
It pisses me off to see first year compsci students acting like they're EXPERT PROGRAMMERS and telling everybody how Python is so awesome and kawaii ^_^!!! even though they have never even touched another language.

Well, look harder. I know (as in "has written substantial amounts of code in") all of the three languages you mentioned, and two of them are amongst my favourites. Still, Python is currently my most used language by far.

They aren't programmer hipsters either, most are physicists that really don't give a shit about anything other than how easy it is to use. Some of them do know other languages like C, Perl, even Tcl; but mostly use Python now.
