If you qualify for this job and have all the above, then you are wasting your time as a software developer and should instead be working as a physicist saving the universe from future catastrophe. No joke, this is now very common, if not typical!

If your favorite programming language were a weapon, what weapon it would be?

I was surprised to find the following question on Stack Overflow: Jon Skeet Facts... Apparently this “question” is.. somewhat controversial; as of now it has 31 revisions and 65 comments. It was opened by Bill the Lizard, who accepted this answer, from Jon Skeet, appropriately enough.

Your are stuck at home. Bored. If only there was a project you could start working on!? Say no more - First Class Thoughts to the rescue!

This project is quite simple: A printer for your water printer! So you don't know what a water printer is? Enjoy the video pal!

The bar for entry into CodeSOD is pretty straight forward: professionally-developed code that elicits that certain What The— reaction. Though there have been a few exceptions over the years, generally speaking, student code, hobbyist code, and amateur code need not apply. That said, I'd like to try something a little different today. Today's example is not technically professionally-developed, it's a Stupid Coding Trick.

It’s so fun to share my innermost web development thoughts. Some people get furious about some of my ideas. Luckily I don’t give a damn. Take my thoughts for what they’re worth.

"...While we were on the farm, my grandparents, mother, and I would take two weeks out of the summer to go on family vacations. I can still remember my first trip out of Florida. It was to the state of Florida. My first grade year we went to the grand canyon, my first grade teacher rode down it on a mule. My first grade teacher was Mrs. Maphles. I was the brightest in my class when it came to math and numbers…"
