Why is this group so obsessed with SICP?

We get it. It's arguably the best intro to programming text, but it's an intro to programming text. Do you think that MIT, Stanford and Berkeley CS students jerk off to SICP for four years? They don't. They master it their first semester and they move the fuck on. They write C libraries in assembly. They write assembly compilers in C. They write virtual machines and interpreters. They hack kernels. They play with electricity. Mentioning SICP in every post doesn't make you look like REAL PROGRAMMER. It makes you look like a high school student.

Once you get your self-esteem in check perhaps you can go back to the imageboards.
