The place to be as a programmer.

Name: Anonymous 2010-12-03 13:09

Hey guys I stopped working as a net admin in order to go back to school and fold my credits into a degree (I'm already over halfway done with my whole fucking degree by accident, how fucking cool)
Anyhow like I stopped admining and went to school for these reasons:

Greater ability to submit resumes, I was tired of seeing relatively easy jobs with better pay and a degree requirement.
Tired of college boys who code VB for a living looking down their noses at me.
Tired of college boys with degrees in bullshit doing the same.
Tired of users (I know you have them)
Tired of PRINTERS I WILL NEVER FIX ANOTHER FUCKING PRINTER EVER.

So I have enough funding to get some sort of masters,  I see the level of undeserved respect the right masters degree can bring a person, people who often do a completely shit job being boss for years finally getting canned and getting a new job as boss somewhere else within a couple months.  I want in on that action.

Anywhere what are some general career guidelines for avoiding USERS and PRINTERS while making as much as I can.

Why dont you open your own startup then?

You will never become a programmer. Better be prepared for ending up in tech-support, answering calls from stupid users, having problems with connecting their printers to PC.

>answering calls from stupid users, having problems with connecting their printers to PC.
These are called programmers,  I have encountered more programmers than I should who have difficulty with their computers as soon as they're outside of their IDE.  Networking seems to be the real shame. 

When people who code applications that send sensitive data over the network can barely figure out how to enter an IP address and they have a bigger cubicle than I do.  It's time to switch teams.

On top of that my boss was a pussy who let the CEO keep his own private WEP secured access point because he couldn't figure out WPA2 at home and had it in his head that he needed both devices configured identically if he was to bring his MBP back and forth without manually reconfiguring it.. I used to tell people there that it'll take all of us working together to sink this ship.

>Why dont you open your own startup then?
I would.. but I need to have a good idea and good reason to assume success before I start.  To be honest I don't think my best bets would be running an IT related business.

You're all weird and I don't understand why

(let ((a 4) (b 8) (c 16))
  (mapcar #'(lambda (x)
              (* x x))
            '(a b c)))

doesn't work :(.
And yes, the indentation is weird but that's not my fault, silly /prog/

'(a b c)
It's the same as
(list 'a 'b 'c)
You should do
(list a b c)
and IHBT.

He could also do '(,'a ,'b ,'c).

So it's necessary for me to write the list with the list function as the first atom/argument/parameter/whatever I should call it for otherwise it will return an error that states that A isn't a function?

Isn't there any more elegant way to do it except actually having to provide it with a function? Feels more like a work around than an actual solution.
Meh, ugly, there should be a more elegant way to do it.

Purely aesthetic correction: list function...

`(,a ,b ,c)
This is a workaround, using list is the normal way to do it.
