If programming languages were religions…

Java would be Fundamentalist Christianity – it’s theoretically based on C, but it voids so many of the old laws that it doesn’t feel like the original at all. Instead, it adds its own set of rigid rules, which its followers believe to be far superior to the original. Not only are they certain that it’s the best language in the world, but they’re willing to burn those who disagree at the stake.

Epic lulz.

Check it out – there’s C, Java, PHP, C++, C#, Lisp, Haskell, Erlang, Perl, Lua, Ruby, Python, COBOL, APL, LOLCODE, and Visual Basic.

Interesting read, nonetheless!

Fun @ Work, Episode I

This cute chick came into work. Wanted to listen to some speakers, so I played “Amazing”, by Alex Lloyd. [iTunes Link]

Oh dear. 😛

I don’t think she quite got it, but yeah – I figured it was the proper thing to do.

Hahahahaha – just another of the many ways I have fun at work.

Stay tuned, there should be more on the way. 😀

Magic pixies divided by pie multiplied by the square root of democracy.

To all those fretting over their marks today I offer a little bit of advice: Your marks will matter for six months. Perhaps 18 if you defer. They’re not the end of the world and they won’t hold you back from doing whatever it is you want to do (although good marks might make things a little easier or less time consuming).

If you got shit marks, don’t worry about it. You can still do whatever you want and be whatever you want. Sometimes there’s unrealistic pressure placed on the kiddies by their parents that this is it and they have to get top marks or else their life will be ruined forever and that’s just not the case.

Good luck everyone.

Heh – in reponse to my question: “How is the TER calculated?”.

Note that you’ll need to be a member of MacTalk Forums to be able to view the thread.

I know the title says VCE results, but the TER is the same for both, so there.
