Where'd you get the gun, David?

I have a running joke in the book about the fact that the maintenance programmer is known to stockpile automatic weapons, and can periodically be seen checking the inventory control program when things start getting out of hand. Well, I happened upon David Wulff's profile image today. A programmer, bleeding, holding an automatic weapon. Yikes! So it appears that David Wulff is, in fact, the legendary and notorious Maintenance Programmer. Geez, what's next? Real Attack Chihuahuas? David, I take back anything questionable I may have said about you! :-D Chistopher Duncan Author - The Career Programmer: Guerilla Tactics for an Imperfect World (Apress)
Wait, wait - that means I'm collecting wrong ones? My full title of current position is: "Software Development Kit Maintenance Programmer" and so far, I only have bolt action rifles (two remingtons, one husquarna, one cooey 22, one chinese 22). Should I considered upgrade? I was considering one Colt HBAR or Bushmaster - or maybe to go to HK? SDK Maintenance Programmer www.finfentric.com

Nope, I've tried them - not precise enough for my taste - I'll stick with proven american or german technology.;) They should make shure that code is well commented - I'm reloading...;P SDK Maintenance Programmer www.fincentric.com

ROFL - er, yeah, and people say I am slightly insane. If anyone is thinking of replying with the line "slighlty?" don't bother - it is way too predictable!

Heck, they just sit there, tapping away at their keyboards entering undocumented spaghetti code willy-nilly, and don't even have the sense to run. Not at all sporting... For detailed work, though, I much prefer my SKS, but trying to predict which one I'll need each day is a problem - there's only room for one in the rifle rack in my truck. "Knock, knock." "Who's there?" "Recursion." "Recursion who?" "Knock, knock..."

While we are in 9 mm para area - my favorite is legendary SIG Sauer P-226 - very effective on frequent goto users. SDK Maintenance Programmer

I would love to try one, but I think the neighbouring primary school may get a little upset, and then the ARU would be the least of my troubles - I'd have to deal with three hundred little buggers armed with pocket knives and lighter fluid!! :omg:

I know I did - I spotted it but left it uncorrected with the mindset "someone is bound to try and be a smart arse". Looks like I was right. ;P

Well, I just stick to a basic Glock 9mm myself. Simple, lightweight, inconspicuous, and sufficient - putting a couple of rounds in the ceiling is usually all the distraction I need to shimmy down the fire escape (my favorite self defense move). But then, I'm not the maintenance programmer. :-D Chistopher Duncan Author - The Career Programmer: Guerilla Tactics for an Imperfect World (Apress)

I am partial to my Colt Gold Cup .45. I always say, the bigger the hole punch the better. .38/9mm and smaller hole punches only piss people off. ;) Gary Kirkham A working Program is one that has only unobserved bugs
