  • Salvatore Iovene & Why most programmers are lousy

    From the page: " I don't think it's possible, nowadays, to become a great programmer if you didn't start getting some interest in the field when you were very young, say about 10 years old (with the due exceptions, of course). Good thing I started HTML around age 6-8.

    Ha...I concur that many people nowadays get into the field simply because they think that using computers is fun (probably to play video games or surf the net) and really have no background or idea of what computer science really is.

    From the page: "Blame it on the HR folks that actually interview these young people with no cares. A good programmer is a little odd on the outside and inside, but HR departments look for â€oenormal” individuals. They only screw themselves and pollute the work force." True, programmers generally are an on bunch, need to be too, combining various skills not often combined.

    From the page: "I've been in the IT field long enough to get to know many programmers, both experienced and just wannabies. During this time, I've realized that most of them are just bad programmers, simply said." I must say I have to agree with Salvatore.
