New Job

Hello Everybody, I just got a new job, for a programming team, and I am the one who does the information gathering, does anybody know of some Programming IRC Channels or something??

because I need to gather information on what people would like in an install maker kind of thing(sort of like InstallShield).

I have plenty of people to talk to, but I need to work 3 hours a week, and I cant talk to those people for a half an hour each on what they would like(well I could, but it doesnt take that long to talk to someone)

if somebody could please email me or post here some Serious Programming IRC Channels, nothing like 3L1T3 #ac|<0r duD3s...

Thanks for your help,you dont have to really hurrty(I think I start working next week).


Thanks!!!!!!


(This is my first job and I am REALLY HAPPY!)

Belive me I've had enough experience with IRC (November will mark my 4th year) typically on the programming rings (#C, #visualbasic, #VC....) such as on dalnet or efnet, keep in mind most of them HATE newbies, which doesnt make sense much to me, as I've tutors bunch of newbies on IRC in 3 years. however, there are some channels on the undernet server that dont share the same annoyance to newbies(anyone that doesnt know what they know is a newbie to them) one thing to keep in mind, dont generalize too much, keep very detailed when asking something on IRC, one of the things they hate is to have to spend a few extra lines explaining what you just typed. You may get the typical response, to read the help file, or search the internet. In general most programming sites on major servers, are either unhelpful, or it's more of a Clic/club than a help channel.

Caren't help you out, but just thought l would add my congrats to your new position as money earning future Bill Gates dude.

Check out Priscilla Queen of the Desert on video some time, it sounds like your sort of music.

[SteveCRM]

Thanks jethro, I'll check that out. Looks like my job worked! I got everyone to this post!

I want *ahem* 50% of your earnings dennis *ahem*

....it wouldn't leave him enough to upgrade his pokemon collection each year. hehehehehehehehe

[Joker]

Congratulation Boss!

This is where I draw the line Aus-hole(variation of ass-hole )
I ABSOLUTELY 100% TOTALY COMPLETELY HATE POKEMON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they are the dumbest things that where ever put on the damn planet..........


and I was planning on spending the money buying myself a domain name, and a web hosting service, with this money I can get one good enough that they have to charge by the month(most of the time the yearly or no-charge ones really suck)

I was also planning on using the money to buy the educational version of Borland Delphi Enterprise(AFAIK its $400)

and if I have any left over from that, I think I'll buy a brand new 12x8x32 CDR/W, along with a Brand New Car...
Ok, the car Is kind of not a very good idea(considering I still have 2 years before I drive, and unless I want to get a $500 piece of trash, I am gonna have to work A LOT of months......)......

oh, and another word on the pokemon thing, the other day I found some of my brothers friends pokemon cards in my moms car, and I ripped them up.... then when the kid came over I put them in his shoes(he took them off), you should have seen his face when he saw them all ripped up


I hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate pokemon....

Joker, whose team are you on?
Batman's or Jethro's???

if you dont make up your damn mind I am gonna kick you off the team.


Dennis
PS: ALL POKEMON LOVERS SHOULD DIE!!!!!!, Alright, I exagerated, they shouldnt die, they should just go see a psychiatrist(and NOT V(ery)'s psychiatrist, because obviously he isnt helping him much.... )

Remembered a few posts you made on a pokemon thread. I agree the things are for total lamers. You shouldn't have ripped up the guys cards though, they were probably his priced positions.

By the way l don't have a team. This would imply a pack mentality which is the anti-thesis of individual thought. Kind of explains those rappers and their possies, l mean how long did it take them to come up with the lines....

Pop goes the weasel
because the weasel goes pop


having endured a rap doco l can attest to it probably being a number of days...these guys aren't mental giants. Hey, they probably invented pokemon as well.

We all know you will spend your money on wine, women, and song.....opps sorry....software, hardware, and the net.

prised posessions?
HA!
it was some cheap ass cards, and they werent worth a thing, I know that because they were creased, and bent and the corners were frayed.....

wine, women, and song

the first 2 choices dont sound too bad

The scourage of pokemon. If l even hear "you got to get them all" again l will personally fly to Japan and fire bomb the company responsible.

Hmm I remeber telling kids how to identify a fake/conterfeit pokemon card (since my dad would buy them for my brother all the time, whata waste of money) they would all panic and look at all their cards, it's nothing more pathetic than a bunch of kids, screaming and hollowing trying to trade those things, or brag about the ones they have, and yet most of them didnt even understand the concept of trading cards, "you trade to get ones you DONT have", in any case there a waste of money, it continues to spoil my little brothers, and they both think Dragon BallZ is the best anime out there (my god that sucks, I'd rather watch Armitage, Ghost in the shell, Lain, BubbleGumCrisis, etc)

but basically if it's anime, it good, but if it's americanized anime with the intent of making kids buy a ton of crap they dont need it's crap, for example sailormoon the original was actually a pretty good series, untill they started making the americanized version for kids in the US, which turned out to be really lame.
