“If we wish to count lines of code, we should not regard them as ‘lines produced’ but as ‘lines spent.’”
– Edsger Dijkstra
Real Programmers respect the Real Programmers of SoftIce.
“Before software should be reusable, it should be usable.”
– Ralph Johnson
Real Programmers use malloc when they have no other choice. Never calloc.
“Less than 10% of the code has to do with the ostensible purpose of the system; the rest deals with input-output, data validation, data structure maintenance, and other housekeeping.”
– Mary Shaw
Real Programmers don’t program in Java. Real Programmers laugh at feebs who write domains in reverse.
“We need above all to know about changes; no one wants or needs to be reminded 16 hours a day that his shoes are on.”
– David Hubel
Real Programmers don’t program in 4GL languages. In fact, no programmer programs using 4GL. 4GL is for imbeciles who cannot even program in Visual Basic.
I would like to state categorically that:
Christopher Maloney is a quack.
I would also like to say to WordPress, shame on you. Suspending a blog for calling a fucking moron a fucking moron is ridiculous. Epic fail guys, epic fail.

So, like, now that I’ve said it, should I be making backups of my posts, getting ready to migrate back to Blogger? Fail.
