| I would have studied Biology if programming hadn't caught me first. Wonderful Life is still probably my favorite book. |

| Language does not really matter (though I can only speak of languages in the imperative tradition) it's more how much you want to make the specific program you're learning to program for. If you don't have a goal none of it will make sense. |

| XML is horrible, but it's being replaced by JSON which isn't. XML made sense at the time-"it's like HTML! We like that! Web!" but now it's like "closing tags are a pain and brackets make words less readable!" SGML/XML is good at representing markup, but most data is in a tree, and JSON is better at ... |

| Children apparently "need their mother" more than a father. You think that it's the feminists that think that though? No, that's the patriarchy, operating on the idea that women are for children. My second example of unfair bias for females and against males is abuse, cheating, alcoholism. If you a... |
