Fucking idiot, you are not on my level! Not only, I have been a
Programmer for a few decades, but I programm in more than two
languages as we speak! C++, JAVA, C#. Do you get it?!?


C++ ~ Java ~ C# (C# is, in fact, MS's response to Java) (P.S., it's
"Java", not "JAVA"). Try getting some more different languages under
your belt.

My languages: C, C++, Java, JSP, PHP, 80x86 Assembly, SQL, bash,
JavaScript, LPC, PLC, Python, perl, a few toy languages that I've
created, as well as several proprietary scripting languages at
companies that I've worked at. I've not only been programming for 18
years, I've been passionate about programming for 18 years.


Better than my list:
Lingua francae (did I get the plural right?): Java, English (couldn't
resist :D)
Languages I feel I have a strong mastery: C, C++, Python
Languages I can easily program in: x86 assembly (both Intel and
GCC-syntax), PHP, SQL, JavaScript, Bash, TI-Basic (both TI-89 and TI-83
style).
Languages I can recognize and comprehend: LISP, Perl (to a degree),
Pascal, Fortran, {M}MIX assembly, French

Since I'm not yet 18 years old, I can't yet have 18 years of programming
experience, but I've been passionate and somewhat programming for ~ 10
years. Also, the last category probably doesn't count as my languages.

For your info, you may even be using a Java IDE Compiler written by my
friends!


Definitely not. The only Java IDE I use is vim (it is also my editor of
choice for nearly all of the languages listed above), although I've
dabbled with JCreator and jEdit in the past. The only compiler I have
ever used is Sun Java.

What does the accomplishment of your friends have to do with your
programming ability? Also, I don't need to compile my IDE, so I don't
use an IDE Compiler :-) If you mean the compiler in an IDE, I'm
curious which one, if its the one I use, I have a few suggestions,
otherwise, STFU.


As a note to Ed in general:
1. Ad hominem attacks weaken your arguments considerably.
2. Inserting vulgar language into every other sentence begins to conjure
up in my mind a mental image of a southern redneck, which makes me more
likely to ignore any future questions you may have. I am sure that
similar feelings can be shared by a large number of people in this group.
3. Repeatedly in this thread, you have shown characteristics typical of
many trolls, including:
    a. Repeated attacks and escalation of posts
    b. Inconsistent use of capitalization
    c. Words that you do not seem to know the meaning of
4. You continually insist that you are a programmer, but you have not
mastered many of the fine arts of programming, showing instead:
    a. Willingness to ignore commonly-accepted standards
    b. Ignorance of basic documentation for topics
    c. Unwillingness to take criticism for sloppy work.
    d. Lack of initiative to actually look for documentation
    Granted, there are many programmers who do not take into account any
of the fine arts, but when prompted to follow the basic guidelines, one
should accept humility.
