>>237Oh joy! Love the illustrations in it. Reminds me of Phil Foglio.
>>10377Really interesting book, must get it!
And fuarrrk this modern society where everything is geared for the lowest common denominator of the latest fad.
And who is the ultimate "nerd"? Not some NUUURRRDDD. But the ultimate.
A doctor. Med students has to cram tomes upon tomes of for years, and that's only the basics.
On the other hand, a good doctor is trained to...no, simply forced to...to give simple answers to simple questions. Because the patients themselves are laymen. The doctor must also be able to put himself in the shoes of the patient.
Let's say that a patient has a bad elbow from playing tennis the wrong way. The doctor can't treat the patient as a kid who should stop being a dum-dummy. The doctor must understand that for the patient, having a bad elbow is horrible. And on the other hand, the tennis jock can't blurt out that reading is for fags. At least not to the doctor. The doctor and the patient are different but respectful of each other.
And because some techies are simply totally worthless at giving simple answers to simple questions, they are by all rights despised. The other day on that other image board, I asked a simple question about a one-shot solution for coding in C. Should be simple yes? Anonymous image board. If you don't know nor care about the question, don't answer. If you know the answer, answer. Or if you aren't sure about what that Anon asked, ask control questions.
Not for that image board. I had to drag the answer of Code::Blocks from them. Just because I think that bashing commands on some terminal isn't coding.
