To look at page I send mail to a daemon which runs wget and mails the page back to me. It is very efficient use of my time, but it is slow in real time. i wrote it back before phones had decent browsers

Cold on a Cob posted:also not everybody is super passionate about software development so don't compare yourself to $FAMOUS_DEVELOPER, just try to grow as a developer on your own, against your own standards the only people who are "super passionate" about the process itself are spolsky and atwood e: i made myself sad

away from the yos a couple hours, and i come back to see a hundred new posts about javascriptMilkie Galore posted:ok summary so far: this. don't use javascript unless it's 100% required by what you're doing, learn asp.net if you want a billion jobs to choose from. you're a smart guy with regards to this stuff and i'm sure you could probably learn a lot of it in like a week if you can buckle down. VS helps do a ton of the work for you, and c# is a good language and really straightforward. do ios if you want to have more fun and not have to deal with windows. i know you've done stuff with that before and it's way more useful than javascript will ever be because you will be much more challenged on the whole. basically gently caress javascript

Since poo poo programmers are asking yos for advice... do any of you have a good memo board solution? I am looking for something visual to keep track of my lovely ideas so I don't forget how horrible they are. I figure the two schools of thought are cork and magnetic dry erase and maybe a 3rd sperg goon option.
