Isn't it fun watching the standards of a profession get swamped and degraded by hordes of poorly educated, arrogant morons? :sigh:

It's depressing. I am considering a career change when my current contract ends.

Why do you take these moronic utterings personally? You try to help: he rebuffs you: fvck him, end of story.

Yeah, I'm not really upset about it. I mostly just thought it was funny enough to link people to it. His first ever post was full of txt speak. I helped him, but I also told him not to talk like a moron. That's where he abused me before. I actually edited his post to make it readable and inserted some things that I thought were hilarious, but post editing is broken :(

I hear ya. The last few years have been fun for me - won some academic recognition for the work I've been doing, but it really isn't making any money. Every tme I go for an interview for a real job, I get totally turned off by the people and the work they're doing. Kind of makes me wonder what I'm going to do with myself when I wrap up this project. I guess I was spoiled working with the people in my group at the University - it probably isn't good for one's perspective to work exclusively with a bunch of PhD's. Not a very realistic environment. :sigh:

It looks[^] like that guy even went to 1 vote a lot of my articles in retaliation. What a jerk. Yes, if this is what the software world is becoming, I am going to do something else when I can. It's just depressing.

I admire your perseverence with the se people: I dive in every now and again and then get bored with all of the crap and the childish responses: I have better things to do with my time than waste it on morons. (To be fair there are people who think I'm a moron - go figure).

I take a kind of twisted pleasure in the fact that having been booted out of the MVP program for not liking Vista, I don't feel any responsibility, I am happy to tell someone if they just need to google, buy a book, or perhaps give up. On the other hand, that I answer more than most people, and yet will never get back my MVP, because I hate Vista, gives me a perverse pleasure, in that I do it to support the site, and to help people, even tho I know that I am less likely to be rewarded for it than almost anyone else.

I read the post. The synopsis is: 1. OP Posts some pisspoor code. 2. CG (With usual diplomacy :-)) points this fact out. 3. OP Requests CG to check to see if his posterior is on fire, and requires CG to "Fuk Off". At this point I think WTF? So I check out his antics. Not only has he Univoted CG down the line(presumably only for the articles he had the intelligence to find), but has repeatedly asked (albeit) sane questions, received a perfectly good answer and then added his own answer wich is invariably worse than the perfectly good answers provided. When CG pointed this out to him, he then took umbridge and the result is the above. He is indeed a fucktard.

Yes, that's a good summary. I do tell people when their code is terrible because it annoys me that someone is paying for it. However, I still gave him the answer, EVERY TIME I replied. And he attacks me and 1 votes me. I mean, I laughed about it, I think it's funny. But, it's still pathetic.

( read the other posts so I'll just answer here its easier ) I started doing a part time Masters in English. I know it's study again but hey I like it an I'm good at it an on this site you cant really call me a geek with any impact whatsoever. It's such a refreshing change to do some work and have someone seriously consider it and no one can tell you it sucks or that there work at www.completeknob.com is so much better. Of course I wouldn't do it professionally though, those guys are just as bad and you cant even really on the this code works so shove you theory up your ass argument.

So what do you study at Masters level English? Its an interesting language, the roots and the way its evolved I find interesting. Chaucer is stuffed with words very similar, and sometimes identical, to Dutch for example.

Books wise its a quick tour Plutarch, Shakespeare, Defoe, Milton, Blake, Bronte, Jean Rhys, Sophocles, Brecht, Coatzee, we're also encourage to bring in other authors once we've got a topic. Theme wise colonisation and its effects is a strong theme running through the whole thing. The Chaucer thing doesn't surprise me. What did surprise me is that English as in literature as in a topic to study was actually developed in India during the Raj in order to give the natives and emotional and intellectual attachment to England. ( so that's all politically correct then. )

Plutarch = Greek (Then Roman) Shakespeare = English Defoe = English Milton = English Blake = English Bronte = English Jean Rhys = Dominican Sophocles = Greek Brecht = German Coatzee = South African ( of Africaans extraction) So, on the English literature course only 50% are acutally English :-). Joking aside, I can work out what Plutarch(a bit) and Sophocles(definately) are doing here, as well as all the others, with the exception of Brecht. Why did you cover him?

LOL - I got up and his account was disabled, so that's a win.

Wow. So before that no one had to plough through all that Shakspere and stuff! Have to say I didnt like Enlgish lit as a subject at school. English lang wasnt much more interesting back then either. Nice to have a hobby and to study it properly though, well done, and good luck for the course.

Plutarch, Shakespeare and Brecht all wrote versions of Coriolanus, Livy Book 2 being the earliest version I think Sophocles, Brecht and Anouilh ( missed him ) wrote versions of Antigone

Technically once we have read the set texts we dont have to read anything else that was originally written in English in fact when it comes to colonialism texts originally written and published in other languages, especially in the past, will tend to be more honest/critical about the effects of colonialism than ones written for an English speaking market.

What did it for you, the "I'm not going to try and respond to your questions" or the "I posted this question once but didn't like the answer or don't know how to modify my orignal post so I'll just do it again" angle or the general "I'm going to be a dick and "punish" you for giving advice I don't like". I responded to his first version and couldn't bring myself to respond to this one. :sigh:
