I listen to this everyday while reading my SICP.

Jesus Christ faggots, SICP was the first CS course I took in college. Get over it. You're pathetic.

Did you really master SICP? I don't think so.

Well, I got an A in the class. To be completely fucking honest it was the easiest CS course I took. In fact, it's the only CS course at my university where the TAs are undergrads. The most advanced topics in the class were MapReduce and the Logo interpreter, which aren't even in the book. The book itself is brain-dead simple. After finals week, I wrote a Scheme interpreter in Python just for the hell of it and I didn't even need the book.

Yes, but not since 2006.

Well it is an introductory text book, but the introduction is both broader and more in-depth than that of shitty universities (like mine), and the charm is precisely that the coverage is very non-bullshitty, partly thanks to Scheme, which is pretty neat to learn on itself.

Now, I'm still going through it (I stopped reading it last year because of other pressures), but I do find some of the problems challenging, but it's often because I want my code to be as pretty as that of the book outright.

Which is why it's noobish as hell to build this culture around it.

Meme:
Read SICP.
Translation:
You're a total noob.

Meme:
Have you read you read your SICP today?
Translation:
Are you still a total noob?

Meme:
I read SICP.
Translation:
I'm not a total noob.

It's like going to a math forum and half the people talking about arithmetic while the other half are bragging about knowing arithmetic assuming that it makes them look smart without realizing that a smart mathematician would never brag about knowing arithmetic.

The thing is, many people come here and say they want to learn programming or CS related studies and do not do much to help themselves. We point them to SICP so they may learn and be enlightened. When they have that under their belt, they can return to us with more intriguing queries than queries that are easily covered with Google or SICP.
