hi,

da darf natürlich das hier nicht fehlen :)

Real programmers don't write specs. Users should consider themselves lucky to 
get any programs at all and take what they get.

Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should 
be hard to read.

Real programmers don't write application programs, they program right down on 
the bare metal. Application programming is for feebs who can't do systems 
programming. 

Real programmers don't eat quiche. Real programmers don't even know how to 
spell quiche. They eat Twinkies, Coke and palate-scorching Szechwan food. 

Real programmers don't draw flowcharts. Flowcharts are, after all, the 
illiterate's form of documentation. Cavemen drew flowcharts; look how much it 
did for them.

Real programmers don't read manuals. Reliance on a reference is a hallmark of 
the novice and the coward. 

Real programmers programs never work right the first time. But if you throw 
them on the machine they can be patched into working in only a few 30-hours 
debugging sessions. 

Real programmers don't use Fortran. Fortran is for wimpy engineers who wear 
white socks, pipe stress freaks, and crystallography weenies. They get 
excited over finite state analysis and nuclear reactor simulation. 

Real programmers don't use COBOL. COBOL is for wimpy application programmers. 

Real programmers never work 9 to 5. If any real programmers are around at 9 
am, it's because they were up all night. 

Real programmers don't write in BASIC. Actually, no programmers write in 
BASIC, after the age of 12. 

Real programmers don't document. Documentation is for simps who can't read 
the listings or the object deck. 

Real programmers don't write in Pascal, or Bliss, or Ada, or any of those 
pinko computer science languages. Strong typing is for people with weak 
memories. 

Real programmers know better than the users what they need. 

Real programmers think structured programming is a communist plot. 

Real programmers don't use schedules. Schedules are for man- ager's toadies. 

Real programmers like to keep their manager in suspense. 

Real programmers think better when playing adventure. 

Real programmers don't use PL/I. PL/I is for insecure momma's boys who can't 
choose between COBOL and Fortran. 

Real programmers don't use APL, unless the whole program can be written on 
one line. 

Real programmers don't use LISP. Only effeminate programmers use more 
parentheses than actual code. 

Real programmers disdain structured programming. Structured programming is 
for compulsive, prematurely toilet-trained neurotics who wear neckties and 
carefully line up sharpened pencils on an otherwise uncluttered desk. 

Real programmers don't like the team programming concept. Unless, of course, 
they are the Chief Programmer. 

Real programmers have no use for managers. Managers are a necessary evil. 
Managers are for dealing with personnel bozos, bean counters, senior planners 
and other mental defectives. 

Real programmers scorn floating point arithmetic. The decimal point was 
invented for pansy bedwetters who are unable to "think big." 

Real programmers don't drive clapped-out Mavericks. They prefer BMWs, 
Lincolns or pick-up trucks with floor shifts. Fast motorcycles are highly 
regarded. 

Real programmers don't believe in schedules. Planners make up schedules. 
Managers "firm up" schedules. Frightened coders strive to meet schedules. 

Real programmers ignore schedules. 

Real programmers like vending machine popcorn. Coders pop it in the microwave 
oven. Real programmers use the heat given off by the cpu. They can tell what 
job is running just by listening to the rate of popping. 

Real programmers know every nuance of every instruction and use them all in 
every real program. Puppy architects won't allow execute instructions to 
address another execute as the target instruction. Real programmers despise 
such petty restrictions. 

Real programmers don't bring brown bag lunches to work. If the vending 
machine sells it, they eat it. If the vending machine doesn't sell it, they 
don't eat it. Vending machines don't sell quiche.
