New Assignment

Again, you misunderstand the idea behind the question. It's not "working for free", it's more "coding for the sheer enjoyment of it". Besides, the idiots posting on that page aren't worth my time. Java? No way.

It's kinda odd I guess but if I was free and had nothing to do, I wouldn't mind doing a few homework questions for someone. It probably won't help him but then I doubt if anyone who'd post homework questions on a forum is the kind to actually benefit from that sort of thinking. It'd help me kill time and his teacher would have a WTF moment when she sees her least favorite pupil turn in a stunning assignment ;P

No I wouldn't, but programmers are not a scarce resource today. So for every dud programmer there will be several talented programmers available for hire.

And there's something inherantly wrong with that. Not eveyone that calls himself a programmer is one (citing a prior thread).

Actually, it should be titled "My Ethics Problems." Maybe we should send him to MIT. :)

Online, yeah maybe. In the real world (at least in my experience) there are tons of really talented programmers who don't have much of a public profile on the Internet.

My latest book : C++/CLI in Action / Amazon.com linkI've worked with some crack shot programmers and I've worked with some programmers who were shot with crack. Sadly, the latter are an overwhelming majority, and my experience with both extends in several countries.
