Meaning what? The youngest member of CodeGuru? The youngest programmer tha is internationally acclaimed as being a guru?

[irona20]

I'm not the youngest :( :D

Hi Irona, I have to admit the weather is pretty nasty today :p

Anyways, I'm not so young anymore either ;)

[JeffB]

I though it was me... maybe.. but today is the birthday of many people... two of them are 19 today, don't know, thought, if they are real Guru !! :D ... any younger?

From myself in that very same post
today is the birthday of many people

I'll quote it before anyone other do it and laugh at me --> HA HA HA :D :D :D

JeffB

[Elrond]

I guess that's impossible to say as not everyone gives his birthday, so the administrator cannot make a search on that.

By the way, it's not me :(

Yes, the youngest member of CodeGuru automatically making her the youngest programmer that is internationally acclaimed as being a guru :D ;) :D

That's not true as not every member of CodeGuru can be considered as being a Guru. Actually, very few could be considered as real Gurus.

And there might be other programming sites in which you would have a real and youger Guru...

[WayneS]

Well at 62 I don't think its me.

[dimm_coder]

Ok. Today I am 20. Soon , from two weeks ++, I ' ll 21.

Another question.

From which age U had been working?
That's mean age from U had been programming for real programs, not for hobby only.

I am from 19.

I started my programmer studies at 20, and my first real program was probably as a trainee while I was 22, and I got a job just before being 25.

AAAAAAAAAaaaargggh Elrond ... stop drinking that and help me out once more.

WayneS, that must be a typo ... 26 it should be :D

[WayneS]

I have been progroming for 30 years but still feel like a beginner. Things change so much that when you feel like you have it figured out - it's past history.

[Platinum Plus]

Wow 30 years and I'm barely 30 myself ! So what did you start with Machine Language on Zilog 80's or that wasn't even around yet :rolleyes:

[WayneS]

Now don't laugh but I started on a mainframe. I learned Fortran and Cobol using punch cards (monitors not in yet). Had to submit cards (hoping you didn't drop them) and wait for printout. If a problem then back to keypunch. I got a TRS-80 in 68 (i think) and started using basic. Thru the years I have learned some C but prefer VB. Went thru several different basics. I want to learn VB script, java, asp, etc. Now that I am retired I have the time to do that.

P.S. Yes I did program using asm. You had to write your fast code in asm compile it and then poke it into memory from your basic program.

I got 21 two weeks ago... Started programming with 15 and worked with it with 20. :)

[Goodz13]

I'm the youngest! Just turned 12 Oct 6.:D

Only kidding. I just turned 24.

[dimm_coder]

No, goodz13!!! :D

I am the younger.
My Birthday October, 28. And Bill Gates has Birthday in that day too. :D ;) :p

So Bill - 1955/October/28
I am - 1981/October/28

long K = 13 // heh...
long N = (1981 - 1955) / K;

printf( "Dimm_coder is "Bill Gates" number = %d", N );

So as result - I am next! hahahahahahahaha..... :D :p :D

[Brad Jones]

I could name a few people on this board that ACT the youngest......


There are days when my wife tells me I'm acting like a 5 year old too..... Would that make me the youngest?


Waynes - I've used punch cards too. I bet most of the people here haven't seen a punch card or a punch card reader......
I guess admitting this, moves me out of the running for being youngest......

Brad!

I used to use punch cards at a parttime job at Halifax Metro Center. It's where all the Big events go in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada! (sport events,concerts,etc). That was only about 5 years ago. After that I used them at an oil refinery.

[dimm_coder]

Main thing is to be ( and to stay ) young at heart ;)

[owenrb]

How about, let's count our Guru age from the time we first taste of programming or the like stuffs.

Ok, let me introduce myself, I'm now about 10 yrs. old. I was born during the "5.25-inch-floppy-diskette" era, just after the "Punch-Card" era. I belong to the DOS family that used to live inside the dark "Window-less" x286 machine. During my infant age, I couldn't speak of anything but syntaxes of DOS batch file. But after a year, I learned my first formal language, (Turbo) Pascal. Then, C/C++, Prolog, Lisp, Ada, etc. came to follow.

Now it's your turn. :D

[praymond]

1st Computer - Timex Sinclair where I played with Basic language.
Then IBM-PC Clone, with 640k memory, floppies, green monitor. I guess that would make me about 20 or so years old! Mind you I paid more for my IBM-PC clone then I do now for Pentium 4's.

[WayneS]

I kind of envy you people that had a computer when you were about 10 years old. I didn't get one until I was almost 30. So tell me, are you all the typical movie geeks. Not going out to play, no high scool sports, fishing, etc.? I know that when I got mine I stayed in front of it so much the wife complained all the time. I am better now, thank you. Let's here from you.

I finished my engineering with 20, and I am working (as programmer) from 20. Before I am working as teacher :)

[Platinum Plus]

Were you teaching programming :cool:

[WayneS]

Well, the only thing about age is I've had more time to crash more computers and programs than yaw (southern for you all).

[AbhijeetR]

Hi All,

Let me be part of it.

Well, I started programming at age of about 16. initially using BASIC then C and then others. As far as real programming, I started it just after engineering. I was 22 then. So I can see lot many above and below me in list.

I'll ask my brother to be part of codegru. He is 14 now and doing quite nice coding. May be he can top the list. :- )

[Xeon]

The door opens, and in came Xeon, with a aura of infinite light behind him.......

From Irona20:
I'm not the youngest

Too bad. If you were 17 or even 15......then.......hooowwwlll!!!!!! ;)


if(GetMember("Irona20") == EXISTENT && GetMemberAge("Irona20") <= 17)
{
GetMember("Xeon").TransformUser(TYPE_WEREWOLF);
SetMemberStatus("Xeon") = LUSTY;
}

From Brad Jones:

Ummm......who are they? Is it this really cool poster called Xeon? If that's the case, you guys all got it wrong. Although Xeon is young, he doesn't act young. U see, young people tend to behave like young people.

Hmmm......also, Brad.......your wife seems to be a really really really serious and totally mature woman. I mean, look : you're already so darn solemn and serious and mature and such, and yet your wife can tell you that you behave like a 5 year old sometimes????? God! That's extreme! She must be of those most really serious and stern person in the universe! :eek:

From Yves M:

Ooom... oomm...
I can read your mind here


No no......Yves. U don't. Instead of wasting psychic powers trying to decipher Brad's mind, try using them to predict the future of .Net. :D

And oh. Currently, needless to say, I declare myself the youngest regular Codeguru member ever. Sure, there're younger ones still, but either they don't post or they're non-existent.

I once met this genius of a **** who's 10 years old in Codeguru(Visual C++ Programming forum), somewhere around 1++ year ago. Her name was Maggie Baldwin, which I can still remember. At this young age, can u believe that she's already talking like Jeff Prosise and explaining the flow of how the MFC source code works, to a big bustard of a fool like me?
Man! I feel like drowning myself in the Atlantic Ocean, cos' my achievements are totally pale compared to hers. Anyway........I'm the youngest regular poster here, at age 18!!!!!!! Cheers!
(I think......and I strongly believe......that Platinum Plus is even younger than me......from the way he talks, he can't be over 19. :):D)

I had a feeling Xeon was the youngest Codeguru but then again you never know. It could be a granddaddy like Simon with a login like Maggie :D :D :D

[Xeon]

Ha ha ha ha! My! U're totally funny, Platinum!
If Simon really did that, I would puke like there's no tomorrow! :D:D

Anyway, here's a challenge :

Is there anyone here who's shorter than me? My height is 5"5.
Don't laugh, please. No giggles or grins allowed whatsoever. Be solemn.

Ok. Now, if there ain't any, then I would proclaim myself the shortest Codeguru here. I am the Man! Cheerio! :):D

[Simon666]

I had a feeling Xeon was the youngest Codeguru but then again you never know. It could be a granddaddy like Simon with a login like Maggie.
Apparently you both indeed do not think at all (or think alike, depending on whose version). Platinum seems to think I don't read this thread because there isn't any previous post of me. I can hardly qualify as a granddaddy at age 24. Xeon however could qualify as a dwarf. :D What is 5"5 in the metric system instead of that crappy, archaic, snobistic English system? Around 1m65? I'm 1m87.

[Platinum Plus]

Apparently you both indeed do not think at all
No Simon, because we do not scheme evil plans does not mean we do not think! Around 1m65? I'm 1m87
Arrrhh shooortieeeessssss !!!
I must be the tallest on Codeguru. But Simon, 1m87 less the 6 inches for your shoe heel :rolleyes: :D

[Xeon]

From The Great Beast :

What is 5"5 in the metric system instead of that crappy, archaic, snobistic English system? Around 1m65? I'm 1m87.

I say my height in the US system is cos' most folks here are from the US, it seems. But anyway, 5"5 is around 1.65 metres.
And at that height, I can easily hit the weakest spot on your body(u know what it is) and change your gender for you free of charge. No no......don't thank me. U're welcome. :D

[Simon666]

No Simon, because we do not scheme evil plans does not mean we do not think! I thought you were one of the other people making plans for world domination and that is why you chose that specific avatar. Can't remember the thread though. You seem to be contradicting yourself.

Arrrhh shooortieeeessssss !!! I must be the tallest on Codeguru. But Simon, 1m87 less the 6 inches for your shoe heel It is more than 6 FEET if I'm not mistaking myself in the English system. And may I ask how tall you are then, mister Shaquille O'Neal?

[Platinum Plus]

I thought you were one of the other people making plans for world domination
Does World domination fall under evil plans :confused: And may I ask how tall you are then, mister Shaquille O'Neal? Well I'm tall enough to see my work mate looking over the top of my desktop monitor (not around it like you would :D ) Most probably you wouldn't see over the top of a laptop :o

[Simon666]

Well I'm tall enough to see my work mate looking over the top of my desktop monitor. That says nothing. It depends on the size of the monitor and the height of the desk. I think you are really small since you seem to insist that I'm a dwarf. Do you have any picture of yourself? :D ;) :) :p

[Platinum Plus]

Oh yeah ! Unfortunately all my recent pics were taken whilst I was sitting because I couldn't fit in with the other folks :D No, seriously, i'm quite tall actually. I was almost a metre when I was born. I think the size of Xeon :D :) :D

[Simon666]

I think maybe you are not familiar with the metric system. You seem to confuse meters with centimeters. :D And even if you are sitting down people can make a rough estimate of your length depending on the proportions of e.g. your forarm to your head. I think you are looking for excuses. :p :mad:

[Simon666]

Oh, by the way, as far as I'm concerned (and probably many others), world domination falls under evil plans indeed.

[Platinum Plus]

OK, no more World Domination ! Will leave Bill to dominate Operating Systems, Xeon to dominate the gurls and I will stick to converting every post here to Chinese :cool:

[Simon666]

Where the hell are you from? Xeon knows some Chinese too. Are you both from Singapore? I say you and Xeon are one person. And you really avoid talking further on the picture issue, don't you?

[Xeon]

From The Beast:

Where the **** are you from? Xeon knows some Chinese too. Are you both from Singapore? I say you and Xeon are one person. And you really avoid talking further on the picture issue, don't you?

God, for the last time, Simon.......Platinum and I are not the same! Before I perish with you and make plans to get you and me banned together.......:mad:......

I know some basic Chinese(we talk in simplified Chinese here most of the time, for my race, which is a Singaporean-Chinese.....other than that, we use UK English)

And I don't think Platinum is from Singapore. I think he's from a country in Europe. Simon, for the last time, use your brains! Look at his signature! It's either French or Spanish, I think! Besides, since when did Platinum clearly says he knows Chinese? All he says he wanna convert every post here to Chinese! Anyone can say that! :p
Plus, he actually converse with Irona and one other member here in Spainish. So, I believe he's from Spain.

And as for the picture issue,.....if I were you, Simon......I wouldn't force him! Drats!

From Platinum Plus:

Platinum pal! :) Trying to convert every post here to Chinese is obviously a waste of time. Maybe you can try to tame the villians from H_ell, such as Apocalypse, The Great Beast and Satan etc.
I'll really respect you for that. :):D

Cheerio, Platinum! :D:)

[Simon666]

Simon, for the last time, use your brains! Look at his signature! It's either French or Spanish, I think! I am using my brains and by the way, the sign is Spanish. And as far as I know, a native Spanish person corrected PlatinumPlus by saying it should be El programador mejor de los todos tiempos. And he used a French sentence once too but apparently didn't even know bonjour is in one word. So I am using my brains. I think you may be setting me on a loose track by trying to convince me Platinum is French or Spanish, while he could still be you. It would make sense. And French and Spanish are the only two foreign languages Platinum has ever used, and coincidentally you now suggest exactly these languages while you don't know much of them either. Aha... Hercule Poirot is Belgian you know.
And as for the picture issue,.....if I were you, Simon......I wouldn't force him! Drats! I am just taunting him either to show a picture or stop calling me a dwarf, which you seem to qualify for. :D This would also explain why you could be trying to taunt me as Platinum Plus for being a dwarf. And I recall you also not being quite keen on showing a picture. The similarities and coincidences just keep piling up.

[dimm_coder]

Do not offended one another guys :)

But, Xeon, may be U ' ll write then I am dumber ( hehehe ... ohohoh my old brains :D ), but when U are with Simon were flaming one another at "Where we from" thread and this time I first came there and read posts, I also thought YOU ARE AND PLATINUM PLUS is ONE MAN. It's was my opinion of caurse only and it was before Simon said it.

[Simon666]

Ooooffff... I was thinking I was the only one with that impression. Read my arguments and you will see that I have some point. And about the offending, I don't mind being called a dwarf since this is hardly the case, and Xeon seems to indicate he doesn't mind either since he mentioned it first (admit it : 1m65 IS small), but Platinum Plus seems to have a problem with it, so I think this is Xeon beginning to regret he ever mentioned that.

[irona20]

Don't speak about me, because I don't realize anything :D :D
I'm 1m70 And I will be the shortest or the tallest girl because Marina and me seem to be the only girls here :D :)

This is crazy, Simon! U really gotta use your imagination to write some adult story books or something, instead of using them on cute boys like me and Platinum. Anyway, accusing us in this way will not prevent me and Platinum from forging an alliance to take down the Great Beast, 666. :p

Now, that's crazy again, Simon! Why would I ever wanna use French or Spanish to impress gurls? U're probably the one who need it, not me! I think, in this case, you're on the same boat as Platinum. Platinum Plus might be from some continent other than Europe, and probably, he uses all this cos' he wanna side-track us.
Anyway, he could be from Brazil. Brazilians speak Spanish and Portugese, I believe.
Also, as a moderator to be, I'm telling you not to harass Irona, which could be anyone's future wife here.
For all you know, she could be Gabriel's or Elrond's future wife, and then.......Earthquakes! Tornadoes! Gigantic tidal waves! Volacanic explosions!(u know the messy details)
Also, the fact that u speak about Irona outta the blue shows that you're interested and aroused by her.


And I recall you also not being quite keen on showing a picture.


That's cos' I don't have a digital camera or a scanner or a web-cam, kid!

Now, Dimm pal.......Simon can say all those things, but you!!!!!! Drats! Now, u can't follow in his footsteps, k? :)
Platinum and I ain't the same person. There's lots of folks who're alike in the same way on earth!

1) If PP(Platinum Plus) pal and I were the same, then I would have definetly wasted all my time signing in and logging out. If that's the case, I woudln't get that far in my software development.

2) Notice that PP pal and I post messages at slightly different time periods.
I wake up in the morning and I see his posts, and late at night over here, I don't see his messages.
This seems to indicates that he's probably from the West, I believe. Most probably from Canada or South America. :)

From Irona:

No.....wrong. U've another competitor, Simon666. He's 1.87 m, so u 2 probably won't get the Tallest **** award. :)

From Simon666:

Xeon=dimm_coder. The use of girl is incorrect in both cases.

That's cos' we're both real men, Simon!
Romantic and sweet guys say the word "girls" as "gurls", and attentive and legendary guys say the word "girls" as "gerls".
Mammalian guys say the word "girls" as "gurlz666".(we all know who) :D:D:D

Cheerio!

Both can discuss about whatever you want, but please, I don't want to be an argument in that absurd discussion.
I have boyfriend, and I don't need anybody here (but in programming question), so please stop this matter.

Arrrggggg!!! Simon, now you disclosed me!!!
I am Xeon ! And I am not only da'man! I am virtual brain which can absorb another members!!! After dimm_coder, U are NEXT my sacrifice!

But,
If seriously, I don't know how real cool gyus says girls or gerls, etc.
It's was only may grammatic mistake. You cauld saw my English enough bad.
I try to perfect it now. And by writting on this forum to.

I have to stand up to this.

As I said in the "Xeon=Paltinium" thread, enough is enough! Please refrain from any comments directed towards other members.

And Xeon, for someone who just got unbanned, you are really pushing it.

Well we all make mistakes, I do often write know instead of now and where instead of were and vice versa. I confuse its and it's regularly too. By the way, it is "you could see".

Ok, ok, Gabriel. Sorry, k? Hush hush hush......please don't get me banned again. I really didn't mean it.
We have to quiet things down a bit or it's gonna be mass-banning soon.
The last time I was banned for 5 days, it's already infinite **** for me. If I get banned this time, I'm gonna kill myself. :)
So, Gabriel......please. :rolleyes:

Also, Irona...I'm really sporry to say all those things about you. Yes, yes.....I really should respect you and your boyfriend.

I think everybody is guilty of going off topic especially in the General Discussion.So, no ill-feelings, k? Sure, no hard feelings at all.I don't want you to go learn Voodoo magic and try it on me. This is an example of a post that can be viewed in many ways but simply means ... no ill-feelings ;)

You're not younger than me, if you are telling the truth about your age. And I'm not "non-existent", and 200 is a sizeable number of posts.

In terms of my programming age, I'm still in the womb ;)

[Xeon]

U're crazy, Solar! :)
In the womb? How can u code, then!!!!

Com'on, I'm 100% the youngest and most regular Codeguru to date, and none can challenge me. Oh! I almost forgot :

I am the Youngest, Most Regular and Shortest Codeguru since God created earth.

To reporters :

Those CNN and BBC reporters, if any.......if you wanna quote this legendary sentence of mine, then please do it in a very solemn and noble manner. For example, u can put graphics of the sunset or the mighty lords of the past together on the same page where you put my quote. Thank you. :cool:

If you're the most regular, then where were you the past few weeks? Oh right, you were banned.

As for those reporters, I'm thinking more along the lines of maybe a picture of a blank wall or something. Just a suggestion.

How can I code if I'm in the womb???? That's a ridiculous question!!!! It's called C++, and my mom has an internet connection in there, high speed. Really no difficulty at all.

The past few weeks? I've only been banned for 6 days, Kid!

Now, Solar........I hope you're not another Simon666. Or maybe, YOU ARE Simon666, cos' you talk in the same way as him!
Maybe I should start this thread called "SolarFlare == Simon666" and list hundreds of reasons why u're him.:confused: :confused:

Okay, why don't you list the first 5 here.
(btw, "SolarFlare==Simon666" is a test condition, doesn't necessarily mean its true. It might make more sense to have an assignment operator: SolarFlare=Simon666)

[Xeon]

Double dragons, double reasons :

1) Both of you have the 'S' character in front of your name.
This is just a starter kinda point, to warm your appetite.

2) The main course, the main dish : Both of you are pretty sarcastic and cold and hostile to a nice and harmless guy like me.
In fact, u might be a meaner version of Simon under a different name.

So, we can fight on the WWE(World Wrestling Entertainment) stages if we have a chance, playing tag-team; 2-on-2.
My team has Platinum Plus and Xeon(me) and your team can be Simon666 and SolarFlare(you).

My name is called Double Threats, and your team is, of course, Nova Beasts.

Someone be the judge, please.

Thanks for the clarification with "Xeon(me)" and "SolarFlare(you)" ;)

But how can I play tag team if it's just me and my alter-ego? Whoops, didn't mean to say that... i mean... ummm...

Where do you live that you call it the WWE? In my country there's the WWF (World Wrestling Federation) and something else, but not WWE.

Before I can take you up on your tag team offer, you'd have to make sure we had an audience of codeguru members since we're fighting for our codeguru honor, otherwise what's the point? And my team name would have to be Magnum Crushers.

[Platinum Plus]

But how can I play tag team if it's just me and my alter-ego? I once saw the Undertaker takeon the Undertaker :p

[Xeon]

From Solar:

Where do you live that you call it the WWE? In my country there's the WWF (World Wrestling Federation) and something else, but not WWE.


Well, WWF seems to be outdated, right?
From what I see on TV, WWF have been re-named to WWE, is that not?
A few of the old heroes like Hulk Hogan and some recent ones like Stone Cold and The Rock are all in there.

Also, I've a serious question : where have the old heroes gone?
The last time I watched WWF is around 4 - 6 years ago, and at that time, there were really cool guys like Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Diesel, Crush, Shawn Michael, Double-J(Jeff Jeffrey, I think), Golddust, Yokozuna(that big fat sumo), and best of all, the Undertaker!(the one with black, dark long hair with dark eyes and dead-white skin all in black clothes......remember him???!!)

Where have all these guys gone????!!!
All the media ever says now is The Rock and such.
Please, someone.

Simon......u're obessed with boys and such! Please......no........please spare me, Simon! Although I'm a really cute young and sweet li'l boy nice to play with, I'm no gay or anything, and I really don't want you, Simon. Please. Let me off. There's so many nice guys around.......:eek:

From Mick:

Now, Mick! Remember to place our names in your manual and such. :D

From Platinum Plus:

Yes. If Simon or Solar tries to play foul, I'll use the bone-breaker on them. :):D

By the way, Simon.....that picture(ASCII graphic) is so darn creative and great and awesome! U're totally free, I guess! Maybe you took 5 hours to get it and wasting your boss's time??!! :eek:

And it seems......I've a rival : Dark Xeon, alias : Meon!

Lastly......what does Meon means, Irona? U can explain it in very difficult, classy and cryptic terms if you're shy. :):D
But I understand : we're all real men here and u're just a li'l ****.......but.......I'm curious to know the meaning, just like Platinum Plus. :)

That statement referred to you and Platinum being the same, jokingly, not about you being gay or anything. If you really want me to call you that (it seems so), read the statement above.

Make that 5 minutes. You did that in 5 minutes :confused: and I bet you now know Swahili in 20 minutes :cool:

Nay, Simon! I'm not gay, please. And WWE/WWF is real darn cool, k?? They're fixed(the matches) but it's so exciting. :):D

And Platinum Plus.......if you're a real pal.......do tell me the meaning? Com'on??

Irona isn't being a real sport, and she never posted the meaning here. So, please, Platinum pal. :):D

I read this in somebody elses post on how to do this kind of things: here is how you can do it:

1. Search on Google for "lightsaber" and "duel", page 3 (http://images.google.be/images?q=lightsaber+duel&svnum=10&hl=nl&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&start=40&sa=N) gives a nice picture. Third pic on top.

2. Save this picture on your PC and open it in Paint.

3. Open a text box covering the entire picture. Choose the font to be courier new, a non proportional font. Choose a contrasting text color, in my case red.

4. Use spaces to get to the figure, and use 0, \, /,-,| signs and/or others where necessary.

5. Copy the entire text somewhere, in my case to this site.

And I have a Kenyan guy in my neighbourhood, I already told you that.

To Irona and Platinum Plus: Now I'm intrigued... what is meon????

[Xeon]

Well, Simon.......even though the matches are fixed, we dunno who will win and who will lose, and in that respect, that's just like the real thing, right??!!

There! :D :D
(isn't those good-VS-bad guys fights in movies the same too???! Darn! U know darn well that in 98%++ of the cases, the good guys win and the bad guys lose, but still, u enjoy watching it.)

That's the whole darn point, Simon pal. :):D

[Platinum Plus]

You got it! Can you handle this one? Hey are you trying to kill me :mad: . It's not a fight to death or ... is it :(

[Simon666]

Oh yes it is a fight to death. We have a Codeguru celebrity such as Xeon, who will finally be put to rest by up and comer Simon666.

Boy Xeon IS short.

No let him live a few more years. All his life he's been a teenager :D

MEON (http://www.stellar.meon.ne.jp/)

[WayneS]

A search of the internet.

From: Foclóir Draíochta - Dictionary of Druidism
meon - temperment, character, whims and fancies (cf aigne 7rl).

From: Smith's Bible Dictionary
Meon’enim - (enchanters ), The plain of, an oak or terebinth. or other great tree. (Judges 9:37) The meaning of Meonenim if interpreted as a Hebrew word, is enchanters or "observers of times," as it is elsewhere rendered ( 18:10,14) in (Micah 5:12) it is soothsayers.

From: IGGL1 DICT Gaeilge-English dictionary (Irish gaelic)

From: Suikalan SeMpaitono
meon - lie, be lying down

From: GAELIC Language Bulletin Board
meon - mind, character, opinion (hard to find Eng.equiv.)

[Simon666]

Well yeah, but that is all not exactly Spanish isn't it. If you want to I can mail you in a PM, I just got the answer from Irona20.

[Xeon]

Darn it!
Celebrity death-mates, eh?

I had be leaving you in moans no more than 1 minute after you step onto the stage. Wear thinner trunks, Simon. That way, I'll be able to smash them more easily. :):D:D:D

[Platinum Plus]

Question is: Does Meon know the meaning of his name ?Wear thinner trunks, Simon. Simon beware !

[Simon666]

Xeon, your suggestions remind me of the duel between Lone Starr and Dark Helmet in the extremely funny movie Space Balls. Your small (5"5) person corresponding for once to the "evil" person, Dark Helmet. Ever seen that movie?

Yes, I have seen that movie, and I consider it the classic movie spoof.

Here is a picture from another funny part in the movie, when the "bad guys" are in a spaceship that's about to explode.

Colonel Sanders: Prepare ship for lightspeed!

Colonel Sanders: Lightspeed too slow?
Dark Helmet: Yes. We're going to have to go right to.......Ludicrous speed! (everyone gasps)

How darn funny, Solar and Simon! Mind you, a guy who's cute and stands at 5"5 can be real darn huggable and cute, k?!!! :):p:p:p:D

[SolarFlare]

Yes, spaceballs is a hilarious movie. I'd have to say the funniest recent movie is Undercover Brother... my friends would say I have bad taste! But it's really a movie worth seeing if you like humor and action, but it's not really dumb like Goldmember (which was still a good movie).

[Platinum Plus]

Simon66 says
Colonel Sanders: Prepare ship for lightspeed!
Dark Helmet: No, no, no! Lightspeed's too slow!

:D :D :D How many times have you watched this movie :rolleyes:

[Simon666]

There are many sites where you can find back the quotes you like in a movie. :cool:

[Platinum Plus]

You mean like you can get the whole script ?

[Simon666]

Of some movies, yes ofcourse.

[SolarFlare]

Quite often there are sites directly associated with the movie that have the complete script, often also the complete original script. But keep in mind that if, in a movie, a character has a profound or hilarious line you will tend to remember it.

[Platinum Plus]

Simon, do you smoke ?

[Simon666]

No I don't smoke. My current avatar is based upon a painting of Bekgian surrealist painter Rene Magritte (http://www.artchive.com/artchive/M/magritte.html), called Les deux mystères (http://enculturation.gmu.edu/3_2/introduction4.html). I chose it because Belgium chose it for its own logo during its EU presidency some months agoo and because above all, Belgium is a surreal - even absurd - country.

To be a hyper-dimension and supreme universe conqueror, you must have 0% of feelings.

If you can think of providing meals for your old rival, then you really ain't up to it.

Now, Solar pal......I don't care what you do! If you really torture them, remember to call me up so that I can make home videos of all these interesting torturing.

If I don't do this, I wouldn't live up to my name as the world's most wonderful Internet paedophile, who knows how to set up web sites of paedophile activity with Microsoft FrontPage 2002. :D:D:D:D:D

Don't worry, I'll make it interesting!

I already have an assortment of standard torture devices including the rack, stretcher, dungeons, chopping blocks, dunking chairs, etc. along with some of my own inventions... try not to get on my bad side :D.

Now, Albert Einstein made his teachers go berserk by asking them questions all the time.(every millisecond)

The ancient prophecy says,

A year after Terror has strike from the skies,
the world shall see the rise of a hero.
Blessed with brawny brains that can challenge the Heavens,
this adversary of intelligence shall rose once more.


The first sentence refers to a year after the September 11th attacks, which were from the skies.
Correct.
Hmmm.....blessed with brawny brains that can challenge the Heavens......this must be a darn smart guy.
Who else fits the bill better than Albert Einstein?

It seems that Platinum Plus is the rising warrior refered to in the ancient prophecy. Could he be the one to avert the war that's about to happen between the US and Iraq?

If he's really the One, the destined, the chosen, then I really gotta suck up to him right now.

To Platinum Plus:

Platinum! I've often look up at the skies and wonder if there's a more adorable and more affectionate man like you!
I've often pondered over why you're so darn sweet and manly, and I've always wondered why you're so brave and impartial.

Platinum! I shall give all my gurls to you as a royal tribute to please you, and I shall be at your calling all my life.
It's my ultimate destiny, my ultimate fate, to serve you, Platinum O' Lord!

Heh heh heh!
Ok ok, anyway, Platinum pal.....glad to see you back. I thought u were too busy eating braai and impala to know what's going on. :D

Also, thank you for boosting my ego by using the P++ logo! :):):cool::D

[Xeon]

Now, now.......don't gimme that crap and stop trying to act cute, k U know u're not! :p

And no no......I'll never suck up to you, unless you make me happy and such.(for example, giving me US$500 every month)

In any case, you're not gonna get any gurls, Simon pal.
Firstly, I don't want you to hurt my gurls.
Secondly, you've to please me first.

In the case of Platinum, he's a real nice guy who's always on my side.
Thus, he's those guys whom I can make 'em happy and such, and suck up to them.

Now, Simon.......if you post one post after each post that I made on any of these forums at anytime anywhere and complimenting me in these posts of yours, I might consider running free ads praising you like the world's gonna end next second.

It all depends on your ole~ attitude towards your boss, Simon! Me, I'm your boss in this case.

Ok. Start sucking up to me now.
We shall see! :o :o :o :o :o :o

It seems that Platinum Plus is the rising warrior refered to in the ancient prophecy. Could he be the one to avert the war that's about to happen between the US and Iraq?

If he's really the One, the destined, the chosen, then I really gotta suck up to him right now.

Wow, Xeon, I can't believe that went right over your head. You're much too smart for this. Actually, the guy referred to in that is me, yes thank you, and I will smite down anyone who doesn't believe it.

Guys......today, I read about this article in a magazine and it's about a male aged 16 years old to 25 years old living in Philadephia, USA. Guess what? It's about him getting involved in a train accident with 500 other cute high-school cheerleader teenage gurls!

The train was about to explode when this guy became a real man and actually risk his darn noble life to save these maidens in distress! He actually calmly opened up his laptop running Windows XP and fire up Visual C++, and coded a program to defuse and neutralise the explosion!

The news even says that when this guy got outta the train, the skies were somewhat of a different color and feeling as usual : it's more of like a heavenly blue unseen anywhere in the human world, and the sweet scent of strange flowers could be smelt.

Most incredible of all, folks who stood near him at that time actually sweared that they were standing next to King Arthur, the legendary great king of the Round Table in the high and gallant past.
Others have said that the spirit of the greatest USA president, Abraham Lincoln, lies in him!

I've just e-mailed CNN and BBC, and after much relutance, they said this guy was SolarFlare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Crazy! I couldn't believe it myself, but after observing each of Solar's posts closely, I realised that this is true!

It has been said that a person reveals his true character even in the slightest thing he does, and that's Solar!
Now I understand why I feel so timid in his presence and posts, and why no one actually dared to argue with this overlord.
The gurls are all totally obedient to him, even the most ferocious and vile ones.

Solar Solar! U're our Hope! U're our Lord! U bring rays of light that penetrate darkness! U bring good over evil!
U're the One to dominate everything that ever existed in all the universes and more! Codeguru is all yours! The gurls are all yours! The money are all rightfully yours!

Anyway, to get to the essence ot this thread.
I started programming when I was 9 (not kidding). The first "usable" program I wrote was somewhere around the age of 10, writing a horse-race betting game in Omicron Basic, on my Atari 1024 ST.
I wanted to go and study for programmer when I was 12 (before that I was going to be a jetfighter-pilot, you know, TOP GUN), but because the Belgian education system doesn't offer such course at that age, I had to wait until I was 16. Then I took a 2-year course in programming. When I was 18, and graduated, I started working immediatly. Currently, I'm 21 and a professional programmer for the last 3 years.

Oh yeah, Brad, I've worked with punshcards before, in a (slightly antique) AS/400 environment. Does that make me 20 years older?

SilverGhost : Currently age 15.

Anybody younger? By the way, I'm his manager man, so I get half the profits he gets.
And in addition, if you folks wanna make deals whatsoever with him, or interview him, you're to go through me first.
And oh yes. Platinum and Solar have got the license to create a 3D game based on SilverGhost and his glory, titled "SilverGhost : Awakening".
This title will be out in May 2003, and a movie will be out soon. :cool:

[Krishnaa]

I am sure there can be somebody youngest , but to be a guru he need not be a member of codeguru ......
Better will be to held a exam/competition ,and then according to marks and age you fix a guru , isnt this right ???

By the way I am 22 ...

[Simon666]

OK, I suspect one member to have an age of 13 (no kidding) while being member of codeguru since 1999, meaning he joined Codeguru at age 10.

Yes. There's a difference between CodeGuru and Guru.
I would say proudly I'm a darn cool and loyal and great and noble Codeguru, but I would never say I'm a Guru, cos' my programming sucks.
A Guru is someone who knows what he's doing.
Famous gurus include Jeff Prosise and John Robbins. They know what is going on inside the MFC libraries etc.
Other gurus include Gabriel Fleseriu, Yves M, BillWilson03 and lots more.
In fact, anyone who knows exactly what's he doing without using them blindly and anyone who can handle advance programming problems is a guru.

Don't let Solar pal fool you!

The only reason he said that is because he is having some technical problem with his rectangle drawing program, which is the major obstacle to his universe domination plans.

Let me tell you what really happened.

Solar was gathering his 100 million strong minion army to tell them his plans.

General Solarflare said, "Our first target is in the Cylinder 256987 Sector 96832 track 1247, a miserable planet called Earth! Here it's where!"

On his newly bought 100,000 inch plasma screen, his windows program is supposed to draw a rectangle on Earth to show his minion army. Before his army could see anything, Beep!, pop up the error messagebox of insufficient resources.

His minion army shouted "Where! Where! Where!"

Solar reboot his windows and tried again. Before his army could see anything, the same thing happened.

They shouted "Where! Where!! Where!!!"

========================

I can say this is the only good thing MS have done for Mankind, ableit not by design.

Writing a new OS, is going to set Solarflare back for at least a thousand years, if not 5602365 years.

Shhh!!! Solarflare is still in the dark that a copy of Win2000/Xp would solve his problem. Let us keep it this way and let him keep his Win98.:D

P.S. Just joking only.

[Xeon]

Ha ha ha! That's so funny, CBasicNet! :D:D:eek::D

Umm.....Solar. Whatever you do, start from the basics. Then work your way up.

In your case, first learn how to talk.
Then, learn how to calculate mathematics. For example, u need to know what is 1 + 1, or even 100 * 1, or even 8 + 2 etc.

Then, u can start learning C/C++......all these would probably take you 170 centuries, so don't hurry. When you've completed all these, I'll probably be in my 250th reincarnation, so remind me when that time comes. :D

Actually, although your inferior race may not know this, our universe is rectangular in shape and so I was mapping out the universe for my minions.

His minion army shouted "Where! Where! Where!"

Solar reboot his windows and tried again. Before his army could see anything, the same thing happened.

I'm not running windows, I'm running "Portals," which is a highly evolved version of your Windows, I don't know why you guys don't upgrade.

They shouted "Where! Where!! Where!!!"

No, you misheard, they were shouting "weair, weiar, weiar!" Meaning "death to the carbon-based life forms!"

I can say this is the only good thing MS have done for Mankind, ableit not by design.

What is this "MS"? Is he your leader?

Writing a new OS, is going to set Solarflare back for at least a thousand years, if not 5602365 years.

I've already finished, actually, just yesterday. I call it: "Windows 3.1". Is that name taken yet?

You primitive fools... if you want to get anything done, you always start with the most complex and work downwards from there!

My species no longer has a need for vocal cords.

Then, learn how to calculate mathematics. For example, u need to know what is 1 + 1, or even 100 * 1, or even 8 + 2 etc.

(ds')^2={(dx)^2[1-v^2/c^2]+(dt)^2[v^2-c^2]}/[1-(v/c)^2]+(dy)^2+(dz)^2
I'll bet you earthlings haven't discovered that formula yet!

Then, u can start learning C/C++......all these would probably take you 170 centuries, so don't hurry.

How long would that be in my unit of time, the kilogram?

When you've completed all these, I'll probably be in my 250th reincarnation, so remind me when that time comes.

What are you at now? 199? 45? 877? 4.3? I'm on my -3rd incarnation... by the time I'm born, I will have conquered the universe 5 times over. By the way, when you reach 250, is there a place I could reach you? Say, starbucks at 2:30?

What do you know about fractals. Their dimension is just a mathematical way of expressing their complexity. Their "dimensions" are never like true dimensions and are real numbers rather than integers. Just another book you didn't read entirely? :rolleyes:

I know my fair share of fractals. You're right, of course, about the dimension=complexity. What I said was sort of a play on words.

Not a hobo, his parents and teachers, remember? Hold on a sec...
Me: Xeon, do you have any pills to cure my strange problems?
Xeon: You mean your universal domination issues?
Me: I told you, for the last time, I'm not addicted to that, I can stop any time I want.
Xeon: Well then whats the problem.
Me: Maybe the other part of me could explain this better.
Xeon: I don't have any pills for you, I was saving them in my room when the cops confiscated my house for truancy.
No, Xeon doesn't have any pills, I just asked him.

[Xeon]

Darn Solar! He actually used Mikrosoft(r) DialogueEditor(tm) to edit the actual conversation! The original, un-edited conversation is :

Solar : Umm......hi Xeon. I hope you don't bear any enimity against me even though I tried to stalk your gurls and such. Errr.....I've a serious problems, and since you're a master of pills, maybe you can recommend some solutions.

Xeon : First of all, gimme US$600,000. No money, no talk. No talk, no solutions. No solutions, and that's total despair for you.

Solar : Ok. I'll get gurls for you as an alternative form of payment. Or maybe piping hot chicken chop?

Xeon : Do u have any gurls???!!!

Solar : I can kidnapped them tonight.(to the FBI : this is a clue to that terrible kid paedophile in Philadephia!!!!)

Xeon : I don't care what you do, just give them to me. And regarding the pills, what's your problem? Too much ego? Too much excitment??!!! Too bored??! Too many fetishes??!!!

Solar : Errr......it's because I wanna dominate the universe and it's cousins. It's a kinda special hobby which I know it's totally impossible, but I just wanna do it.

Xeon : U're worse than George War Bush! At least War Bush is only interested in conquering the world! U're........XTreme!
(quickly calls in the staff from the mental hospital to drag him away)

[SolarFlare]

I think I'll be the first to ask the obvious question... Xeon where were you?? We had an interesting conversation trying to guess what happened to you... I told Simon that I had taken you aboard my spaceship as a refugee after tuff stuff with the folks at home and at skule, but we both know thats a lie.

[SolarFlare]

Nevermind, sorry, I didn't see that thread you made: Xeon is back (http://www.codeguru.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=221818). We were all really worried! You're lucky they didn't kidnap you when you were weakened and taken you to that work program you didn't want to do... and CodeGuru was as loud as a pencap without you.

pencap = the cap of a pen
????not sure how i can better describe it... if you're still confused, it's the little piece of plastic that covers a pen when you're not using it... i think that's pretty straightforward

Hi there, CBasicNet and SolarFlare! :)

Well, first, thank you for telling me the site, Solar! Also, u seems to be getting more and more powerful in VBulletin scripting eh : a link under an avatar????!!!! Whoa! State-of-the-art technology??!!!
How about some Flash in threads and posts etc.?

Anyway, regarding this site, I really wanna take a SledgeHammer and smash Simon flat. How dare he! And who's that guy who voted for Option No. 1 and Option No. 2 in that thread??!!

I strongly insist it is Simon, under 2 different user names. Grrrr! :)

And no......Platinum.....I dunno where he is. In fact, even before my computer broke down, this guy wasn't around as frequent anymore. Got sick of the forums or probably busy, I say.

Once, there's these 2 guys called BugAlert and FieryTycoon. The former was pretty active the first few months he came, but disappeared into the Bermuda Triangle afterwards.
The latter was a great guy, and still comes here once every century, but he's not as active as he used to be.

Only one man, and one boy, will stand the tests of time. Brad Jones can leave Codeguru, and the universe can end, but Xeon is still there.

Nay, Solar! Haven't you heard that George War Bush is naming us 3 as the "Axis of Evil"??!!! Solar, Simon, Xeon.
We really should take out War Bush before killing each other. Once War Bush is down, you can conquer America(from Canada to the USA to the very bottom of South America), I can conquer the entire Asia and the Asia Pacific(Papua New Guinea, Australia and New Zealand), and Simon can conquer Russia and the entire European and it's neighbours, including the entire Middle East and Africa.

Then, we 3 can fight each other to our deaths once these countries are taken. And yes. To prevent any interruptions, we might have to take down Osama too, or else he might be a threat to our new civilisations.

This also means that we have galatic access to gurls all over. In other words, you have them all. :cool::cool::cool::cool:

Okay, you definitely don't know my plans well enough. First of all, I will not share my domain with anyone. Secondly, if I conquer a plot of land as big as America every day, how long would it take me to conquer the whole universe??? That's right, 29634087235 macroyears.

I'm afraid I have to admit I stopped reading literature somewhere at age 15. But I've already heard of it and currently I'm taking three weeks vacation until monday the 6th of January, so maybe I'll reduce my barbarianness by reading a book. Do not misunderstand me : I stopped reading fiction at that age except for the books I had to review at school. I kept reading non-fiction (scientific) books and such, and I'm very well informed about the situation in the world by a good newspaper.

[SolarFlare]

If you read a book, make sure it's a good one! Reading bad books is no fun, and believe me, I've had my fair share of that. Depending on what kind of book you'd like I could make some good recommendations, I think ;).

Well from the same author:
The 3 Mousketåers
Fourty-Five
20 Years Later

other authors:
Isaak Asimov, Stanislav Lem, Tery Pratchet, Dougls Adams, Jules Verne, but especialy Roger Zelazni (The Amber Chronicles rule)

PS 'The Count of Monte Christo' is a wonderful book

[galathaea]

For you, Simon666, I'd say go get A Canticle For Liebowitz. Its probably something you'd need to read eventually...

Or maybe Stranger in a Strange Land.

Something like those...

[Tom Frohman]

The 3 Mousketåers
Fourty-Five
20 Years Later



Personally, speaking as a Dumas fanatic, I wouldn't recommend Forty Five. Especially, if you read it out of sequence without first having read Marguerite de Valois (an excellent book) first, like i did :).

The Count of Monte Cristo is definitely Dumas' best novel.


My favorite authors Dumas, Hermann Hesse and Evelyn Waugh.

[Simon666]

Thanks for all the replies. This makes me feel really dumb. :( But then again, currently I am the dumbest and I even voted for myself. I'll see how much time I have. I would also like to read about C++ and some other programming books my brother (programmer) brought from the recent book fair.

[SolarFlare]

Originally posted by Simon666

I see you already have many fine suggestions. The answer can be put bluntly: there are good books of all genres out there; it depends what you like.

You seem like the type to enjoy The hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy (Douglas Adams, as mentioned above), but it's a bit below an adult's reading level. I wouldn't use that as an excuse to pass it up, though. Yes, the Count of Monte Cristo is an excellent book. If you like science fiction, I recommend Arthur C Clarke. His most famous book (maybe you've heard of it) is 2001: a space odyssey. For fantasy, there are the Harry Potter books. I've never read them, but I know people of all ages who have read them and all (no exceptions) have been enthralled by it. If you want non-fiction that reads as interestingly as fiction, perhaps you should get your hands on Cosmos (Carl Sagan). Carl Sagan is a genius of a scientist, and this book hits on many many interesting topics. If you have other categories in mind you would like, don't hesitate to ask ;-)~

[s_k]

And, if you like humour, I recommend Terry Prattchet and his Discworld. It is fantastic, full of very inteligent humour series of fantasy stories, lampooning absolutely everything from J.R.R Tolkien to Hollywood...

Just a suggestion...

Standa.

I know most people on this planet are unintelligent. Because the majority of people say something - like God exists - does not mean it is correct. I read as a kid the books of Anthony Horrowitz. These books were very good and funny. I've also heard - among others in an interview with him - that he could easily sue her for stealing ideas and so.

How can a person as brilliant as you, Simon, be so blind? The movies are never never never like the book! I'll grant you this: the movies sucked long and hard. But the books were good. Perhaps you'd like Asimov instead.

That's true. But it can be an indication.

I was just trying to warn you that J.K. Rowlings books are not as original as everybody claims. Don't believe in hypes. Tolkien is also a hype. 50% of people think he's God, 50% of people think he sucks. Guess what 50% I'm in. Talking about that, I'm going to see "The Two Towers" this afternoon. The first movie was quite boring, but we'll see. :rolleyes:

Everyone here is so excited for it. I get pissed off when a movie gets great reviews and I don't like it. This movie better not do that to me. Tell me how you think it is (without giving plot because I never read the books).

A bit hard as I was disturbed in my attention by assholes both in front and after me. The ones after me found it amusing to play drums on their popcorn canister and the one in front of me didn't seem to pay attention to the movie as he nearly constantly SMS'ed or checked SMS's on his cellphone, although without noise but with the little orange screen disturbing your view. This ruined the experience.

Anyway, I thought it was better than the previous one qua action. There were also more jokes (about dwarves), a couple were very good ones but some were less. There seemed to be a bit too much jokes about dwarves. Further more the characters are even more disturbingly one-dimensional than in the previous one and some scenes seem to be Greenpeace propaganda. Oh, and the scenes with annoying Liv Tyler (can't stand that woman, especially when she spaks "Elvish") are completely unnecessary and crap. I found Golem and his inner struggle with himself good (average), my brother bad.

So in short: when you're a fan of Tolkien, you'll love it, otherwise, it's a rather expensive B-movie to you, but worth seeing because of the special effects.

What do u know about very gorgeous gurls, Simon??!!! She's really one of those very sexy and gorgeous angels on Earth! She's so much prettier than Gisele Bundchan(or Bundchen) and any other gurls! She's so darn natural and turns all men into cazy fans of hers! But amazingly,......you seem undaunted. Maybe you're a.......??!!!

I'm not talking about looks but personality. Since you don't have the latter - nor the first :D:p - I don't expect you to understand.

[SolarFlare]

All those people annoying Simon in the movie theater - they were me!

Well, I admit it, it wasn't me. But maybe the moderators here, who seem to have unlimited powers (and they're always using them in new ways) were the ones you saw.

Thx for the movie review, Simmy. Is it ok if I call u Simmy?

Don't be silly, Simon! Liz Tyler is both darn angel-looking and has a sweet personality. The truth is : u want her for your wife but u're too shy to admit. Really, but it's natural for any real man to think this way. But if you're a female or a 0.5 male, then that's another story, of course.:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Simmy. Do you not know that every piece of element on any web site is copyrighted, whether it's explicitly stated or not? Someone please take down this guy! A nice, fat he|| of a big juicy chance! :D:D:D:D:D:D

From Simon:

It is the cover of a box of some sort of card game. Every moron can scan that. It is not explicitly stated and I did not find any disclaimers on that site, so maybe Xeon is right for once in is life, although I doubt it.


Card game?! Card games are created by real companies run by real men with real tough tools and toys, sonny! :o
There's some company logos that don't have a (r) or a (tm) or a (sm), but they're still registered.

Can someone please stop these kinda illegal acts and call the cops? The moderators really should do something.

But I'm darn willing to declare that Simon is innocent, provided that he sends 1 pretty and really really erotic **** to me every week, for me to add in to my collection. I can't wait, Simon. :):D:D:):D:D

[Simon666]

What picture? What card game? What is everybody rambling about? Xeon, is there something is wrong inside your head, seeing things that aren't there? And which one of these questions is rethorical? :D :p :rolleyes:

Nice trick, Simon! I bet you deleted that post away cos' you're afraid of the cops and of me! My! I scared you, didn't I? :p:D:p:D:p:D

Now, kid......tell me who's the man and I might consider letting you off once and for all if your answer is correct. :o

Don't gimme crap, sonny. If you do, you might find yourself waking up one morning with lots of explosive warheads tied to your bed, which in turn, is tied to you. Now, isn't that a darn nice scenario to ponder about? What's gonna happen next in that kinda situation?

5......4.......3.....2.......1......Nothing happens.
10 seconds later, u thought everything was safe again, and you wait to be rescued. But.......tee-tee-tee-tee-tee-tee-tee-tee-tee-tee-tee-tee-tee-tee-tee!

Did I say something about sound effects? :rolleyes: For other readers : this time I have deleted or edited nothing. Xeon : I tell you : do not listen to the voices inside your head. A cute French **** named Jeanne d'Arc did this once and ended up being barbecued by a bunch of English guys. :eek:
