Don't Disturb the Programmers!

[Robby Unruh]

Some of your guys' programmers have it way too good. I'm jealous.

[demosthenes2k8]

Haha, nice picture. I'll start that list.

PROGRAMMERS:

• Enjoy Dew || Root beer
• Prefer dark places
• Have strange senses of humor
• Are extremely distractable
• Work well when listening to loud music - either techno or classic rock works the best
• Can't be expected to get anything done if they are well rested
• Can read minds (don't ask)
• Often have some musical ability
• Support multitasking
• Get grouchy if you touch their laptops || drinks
• Require constant supervision
• Nest in small, dark areas
• Weave webs with their wires to ensnare unwitting Mech students
• Get frightened like deer when you mention "code review"
• Only use headphones when gaming
• Make code puns
• Work better without sleep

lol all I get is a dirty table covered with electronics and scrap metal under a malfunctioning heating system, you get a nice cozy quiet room

Our team must be so fortunate to have so much space... =\

In other news, programmers DO like to work in dark places, away from loud noises (but then they put techno on)

XD

We should list symptoms and habits of programmers haha.

We get something like that as well. Today it got so loud that I decided to relocate to the little cafeteria area in order to get away from it.

And that meant giving up the internet.

You can bet it was an interesting day of programming and internet withdrawal.

Yeah i noticed that if only the 3 and 4 were swapped

Today, we disturbed your programmers quite successfully, and in spite of odd digital sidecar issues, things went quite well, thank you!

There are 10 types of people in the world. Those who know ternary, those who don't, and those who thought this was a binary joke.

Haha, good one.
