You, on the other hand, eagerly pounce on every little error trying to show us your astounding brilliance.
actually not really. the only reason I've said what I've said recently is to try and produce conversation with you. I have a next door neighbor that is just as smart as you, and is your same age. I go back and forth with him all the time about who's smarter, with regard to new age knowledge and old-age knowledge. he's a legacy person like you are. you and I are different. neither one of us is the smartest being on the forum. we know different things, for a variety of reasons. A lot of times I give you $hit just to see if you can respond with anything relevant, technologically. And sometimes you do. I test people all the time, to see how smart they really are and what they really know. Did I tell you about the conversation I had with the CTO consultant in Cedar Rapids 2 weeks ago at the Hilton hotel? We talked for 3 hours, and I learned quite a lot from him. Everything I said he already knew, from 20 years of being in this business. and I think I've already posted his words here somewhere, but just in case I didn't, hear they are:
we also talked about a slew of other topics. anything from servers and their configs, blacklisting, secretive coding of DIVS on a webpage that will get you blacklisted (which was interesting to hear from him!), to constructors in .NET, to working with and architecting OOP programs and many other things. Now, THAT is a person I would love to work with. and it was evident to me that the guy still had a caring heart and soul. Because he revealed to me how evil tech companies have become. And we both agreed that it will only get worse. He also told me that his son was so smart, after learning from him, that he once changed the MAC address of the router for the purpose of not talking to his own father when he called. LOL! WOW. Talk about knowledge young people should not have!
