Real coders work on dirty screens



My coding screen is dirty, but I want to clean the other one. :)


real coders dont need screens


Real coders sit down at 2am, close their eyes and scream like a banshee while pounding the keyboard furiously. After about 2 minutes of this, they calmly stand up, grab a Jolt, and watch while the custom operating system they just wrote in their own custom language (implemented in Arc and Javascript) compiles...

(The screaming is important. It makes you look like a mad scientist.)


heh they code with their eyes closed
