Dear Tech Support: Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0. I soon noticed that the new program began unexpected child processing that took up a lot of space and resources. In addition, Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs and now monitors all other system activity. Applications such as Poker Night 10.3, Football 5.0, HuntingAndFishing 7.5, and Racing 3.6. I...

My response to “Of girls and geeks: Environment may be why women don’t like computer science”: I never thought of environment as a key factor in why women don’t choose computer science as a career (maybe because I fit in with that stereotype). I think that broadening the image of the field to attract, as Schwarz says, more “typical” people may help attract...

In real estate, it’s location, location, location. And when it comes to why girls and women shy away from careers in computer science, a key reason is environment, environment, environment.
The stereotype of computer scientists as nerds who stay up all night coding and have no social life may be driving women away from the field, according to a new study published this month. This...

How To Shoot Yourself in the Foot Using Any...
Ada After correctly packaging your foot, you attempt to concurrently load the gun, pull the trigger, scream, and shoot yourself in the foot. When you try, however, you discover that your foot is of the wrong type.
APL You shoot yourself in the foot, then spend all day figuring out how to do it in fewer characters.
ASP.NET Find a gun, it falls apart. Put it back together, it falls apart...

Laziness - The quality that makes you go to great effort to reduce overall energy expenditure. It makes you write labor-saving programs that other people will find useful, and document what you wrote so you don’t have to answer so many questions about it. Hence, the first great virtue of a programmer. Also hence, this book. See also impatience and hubris. Impatience - The anger you feel...
