We all know there are only three people on /prog/ — me, you, and The Sussman trolling us. Still, there are multiple established personae on /prog/. By the 66Three Person Lemma99, each one of them must be either me, you, or The Sussman. The challenge is to either divide the following list into three finite subsets that describe each of the posters on /prog/ or to prove that the task is impossible, disproving the lemma.
1. Me
2. You
3. The Sussman
4. The guy who sages a lot
5. The guy who refuses to sage for no good reason
6. The guy who refuses to sage with a good reason
7. The guy from /jp/
8. The guy from /b/
9. The guy from /pr/
10. The guy who can't program at all
11. Smug LISP weenie
12. Smug C weenie
13. Smug Haskell nomad
14. Enterprise Java suit
15. Sepples faggot
16. The proportional font guy
17. Sergeant Sagetank
18. Hotaru
19. MrVacBob-kun-sama
20. Erika
21. Christopher
22. Xarn
23. FrozenVoid
24. Jamestopher
25. UMH memesmith
26. HMA meme fan
27. HAXUS THE GREAT
28. The anusposter
29. The wayward freshman
30. The imageboard paladin
31. The guy who keeps saying ``cromulent''
32. The ``faggot quotes'' guy
32. The ``Stop using ``faggot quotes'''' guy
33. Haskell the dead dog
34. The -- guy
35. The necroposter
36. MILKRIBS4k
37. The opiates spammer
38. rand(all)
39. The Anticudder
40. Richard Stallman
41. MDickie
42. Leah Culver

I'm quite sure I'm me, since I'm neither the OP nor The Sussman. It's nice to see you remembered me even though I haven't been posting for 1-2 years; who are you, OP?
I just learned today that there was a part of 4chan that was not an image board. It really is like a secret club. I even use the terminal theme. I don't even know how to program save how to print a string in python.
No, I am me! I am a this guy! :)
AKA Arduino guy
AKA guy-who-wouldnt-shut-up-about-SICP-MSPaint
AKA "get back to /g/, you!"
AKA Your Mother.
~love,
Your mother

Keep it that way (secret).
Programming? Would you like to learn? Have you ever used BASIC?

I am not even trolling. I hardly understand what is going on in this thread but it is pretty funny.

You are too far ahead of yourself. Start somewhere sensible. Find MS-DOS BASIC or a BASIC interpreter and teach yourself that. Learn GOTOs and how you can section off code like that. They can be used like FUNCTIONS if you are clever!
>>113
BASIC is not retarded it is what was available when I TAUGHT MYSELF. NOW- you wana believe some Yuppie POS you go right ahead. You wana listen to the hacker? You already know what I told u.

and that's just how it is. I learned on it. YOU can, too! :) TRUST ME it is not as "jankity" as they make it out to be. You can do a lot with BASIC. Including fool old POTS lines.

if I get stuck on python I will try out basic. I am already pretty far in already however so I am gonna keep with it.

I am not saying that learning BASIC is retarded because I am not skilled with it. I have just read in many places including here that learning BASIC gives you a lot of bad programming habits that you carry with you.

If you fall back to where you SHOULD be at now, you MIGHT be able to figure out classes. That is one of the MAJOR reason you'd use python. If you don't know how to use that piece, you may as well figure out WHY You CAN NOT use that pice. See?

Only you decide what to carry with you. Do I code like BASIC when I'm coding in PHP? No. See how that works? :)
