- I'm looking for a copy of a humor guide that I once saw, it was entitled
- 'The Real Programmer's Guide' and listed a bunch of sayings and things...
- A couple of the lines I do remember went like:
- REAL programmers live to crash the system when end-users are doing
- important work.
- REAL programers never document their code, if it was hard to write it should
- be hard to understand.
- REAL programmers never print out their code, it's on the screen and that's
- where it belongs.
- REAL programmers don't work at banks for more than 6 months.
-
- and etc, you get the idea. Anyone have a copy of this? If someone does
- maybe you could post it and/or e-mail me a copy...
