What if someone post about it in ED? or worse GD.^[1]
There no segregation between parts of the internet, the problem is /prog/ is confident about its "special place" in the cosmos.
In reality there is constant flux in the userbase and new people come from all places on the internet.

What does that even mean? I have accounts in places that require registration, but only for that reason. I also have accounts on various servers for the purpose of auth. I don't use facebook or social networks.

Right down to the inept copy/paste job that neglected to remove the comments the previous moron who filled it out put in.

COMPUTER NERD MY ANUS

This is much more similar to a facebook addict than a computer nerd.

It's like calling everyday car commuters pro racing drivers.

The world is changing. Everybody is using a computer for at least an hour a day nowadays.

Nothing to do with being a computer nerd.

If anything the correct terminology would be computer geek, and no. That would still be as misappropriate as calling macfags geeks.
