    Really? If you saw an excellent article that really pushed the boundaries, doing things that no-one had ever seen or even thought of, then saw it was done by an 8 year old, wouldn't you think 'Smug Little Bastard!' :)

    Don't want to really feel them bad by saying that. But, it really burns somewhere.

        had this problem for 2 years till she (my ex-colleague) left the company. Man, she solved all problems which I left out. Next question from manager: Why is that you cannot do?

              This is not a cross post. I am trying to see if a user is male/female and their age. Is it possible? Why? If I see a good article from women and kids, I will say "Great, your article is so good, I appreciate it." [Edited] Not that women cannot write good articles. There are very good women programmers. I see them as special as it is very rare from my country. And for the kids who write articles, I feel they are simply great.

                Is this harsh? I don't know this sentence. If yes, you are also one of them who took it bad. :) Any way people, I want to complete this. I have two reasons posting this.. 1. I have read many posts regarding univotes. People can give vote 1 without reading completely. This is one of them. 2. I recently read an article posted by 8 year old kid and really surprised. I wanted to see if there are many kids doing this great work.

                    Here is the reason people have taken offense or find your post funny... You say that when you see a GOOD article from a woman, you indicate your are surprised (or perhaps your intention was to indicate that you want to be encouraging, but the "OMG" makes it seem like you are surprised). As there are fewer female programmers than male, it would be fine to be excited when you come across an article written by a woman (as this would be somewhat rare, given the scarce number of female programmers). It would also be fine to be excited to see a good article (those can be rare too). However, your post comes across as implying that you are surprised to see a GOOD article from a WOMAN. It sort of implies that you expect a woman cannot write a good article, presumably because you think women are somehow less capable (than men) of making an article that is good. I'm sure that is not the case that you think that, but I thought I'd let you know why you didn't get the reaction you were looking for. Some people find it offensive that you would have such a poor opinion of women and others probably think it's funny because your apparently lack of English mastery or perhaps a cultural difference is the cause of this mistaken interpretation.

                          If you look on a users profile they may mention what gender they are, or if you hang around the forums you might be able to discern the gender of some users. However I find that in most cases reading the persons name is a fantastic clue, a lot of people use their real names around here. Also it seems a little condescending to only comment on how good an article is if it was written by a woman, as if to say it is some kind of surprise that a woman could create a decent article. Still perhaps I'm reading too much into it. For myself I usually don't disclose my gender, however I have my suspicions that it might not be very difficult to figure out.

                            If you can't meet women on your own, you can always rent them for a few minutes (although, they will still charge you for the full hour).

                                    Yes, but the expertise lies in completing a job to the customers satisfaction within budget and with the given time frame. It is the unltimate in efficiency performance.

                                      If you have a suggestion please use the Site bugs / Suggestions forum. :)

                                      The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick - Silverlight *.XCP files. Visit the Hindi forum here.

                                          Yes, but the expertise lies in completing a job to the customers satisfaction within budget and with the given time frame. It is the unltimate in efficiency performance.

                                          The given time frame is an hour, but given the implied insignificance of task at hand (wink wink nudge nudge), the task will be completed in around 30 seconds, and the rest of the hour will probably be spent in idle chit chat, with the woman only pretending to be interested, glancing repeatedly at her watch to see if the hour in hell is over yet.
