Programmers

[JuggaloBrotha]

The way I look at it... my mind isn't a storage facility... it's an indexing system.... unfortunately some of my indexes need to be re-built, statistics updated and the recall routines probably need an overhaul...

So you're operating with a corrupt catalog?

If I remember everything in programming that I learned, I would be burnt out long ago my head long exploded with algorithms spilling out instead of brain matter.

From the humble days of my Commodore 128, I started with Basic and Fortran 77 back in the day on the VAX computer dinosaurs of the past working in a room that had to be kept cold to accomodate them and then went to TurboPascal, Pascal, Assembly Language, Small talk, C++, Java, PL/SQL, ASP, VB script and Javascript, basic Unix, Visual Basic 6 and then .NET today.
Some of languages I have mentioned whether procedural or object oriented are already past if not one the path of obsolence. So with exception for the governing rules structure that they follow the language that was worthwhile yesterday is useless today. And memory should be a progression of accumulating and honing the superset of knowledge needed for today.
