heres mine:

    finish college

    get job

    pay taxes

    work until i can afford a van, petrol, food, passport and visas

    get van

    travel world

    die


of course only two of these are certain...


that may be due to where they learned, I am doing a HND in computer science and we are learning C# and nothing else...

before i began i knew (well enough to make use of) C, vala and a small amount of lisp and PHP


Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. The guy didn't know that such things such as open source, git, Ruby, Python, Perl,... even existed. I find it impossible to browse the web and not to run into them, but it seems to be quite possible.


most people on my course are like that. at the start about 90% didnt know what a programming language is and about 50% didnt know what WYSIWYG stands for...


<blink> as the most hated?

what about <marquee>?

i still love C. the idea of a yearly programming language is confusing though, are "last years languages" suddenly useless? or is it a personal learning thing?


who knows I'm with you
