Bill Gates is actually probably the most intelligent engineer of those three. Steve Jobs was a sales and design guy. Zuckerberg was a jew. Steve coded but wasn't great, mostly he was from the era when coding was necessary to even use a computer. Zuckerberg can do php and javascript bullshit, but of course he didn't have any great ideas or capabilities, he just had the social network to make a website that took over.

Can you get me a 90k/year gig writing HTML? I'll write the best damn html they've ever seen, and I'll write more of it than anyone else can, too! Every company I work with gets HTML written by Indians that earn less than $10 an hour. Most people do not actually write HTML these days, it's all handled by templating languages or design software.

Women with a good degree are actually great. I have never seen clever code or anything super optimized from them, but sometimes that is what you want, instead of some confusing blur of code. I'd way rather work with an intelligent woman than a pajeet or chink. There are too many woman that claim "they can code" but only know html though, thankfully they sort themselves out, like the men who have a CS degree and can't write a for loop.

and she managed to write bad html (which will get rendered since browsers expect bad html) and wrote some css but then threw a bunch of style info in the html tags, and she also doesn't have any real indentation system. I can handle when people do things differently, as long as they work, and they do them differently consistently, but this woman is just making a mess

i think your formatting is fucked. i'm not going to decipher that without at least some line breaks

I wrote better HTML when I was literally 8 years old and wanted to customize my Neopets page.

I used to be a fan of Ruby until I started seeing the professional code written in it by SJWs. The problem with a loose dynamic language like Ruby, is when you have 20 ways to do something and infinite ways to write your code, you have that many ways to fuck everything up. It's basically Perl 2.0 but this time with SJWs. The only upshot is IME, Rubycunts seem to be into unit testing more often than Nodetards.

sometimes that's the boss you want though, if it's all about money. "Hey I need you to make this complicated page displaying a bunch of data, I know it'll be a bunch of work so I'll give you a couple weeks before it's due." Me: spends an hour using a templating language to generate the page, waits a week, sends him the generated html and bill for 40 hours of work.
I haven't done exactly this, but I have done similar things where I use metaprogramming concepts to generate PHP or javascript, then the generated code is what I submit through git. It saves me time and makes me look good. If I showed my "boss" how I did it, I'd have to spend more hours educating him than if I had wrote the code by hand.

vim runs on windows. every useful feature i've seen in any IDE has been implemented in vim, and I have too many years of muscle memory with vim to ever use something else. People who say use editor X or IDE Y, are kind of like somebody who would tell a professional guitar player to throw out his guitar and get a laptop because dubstep is the new thing.

Let's push the meme that "Java is racist." Or better yet, a language we all hate.... may I suggest php or javascript?

Java is racist, confirmed.
There are many women who have been crucial for computer science. They are a minority, especially these days, though. People have to consider that historically, something like mathematics and computer science was where people who were physically weaker and/or less sociable gravitated. Women get turned off math very young, but by college age, computer science is a real type of engineering that for some time was more suited for women than many other types of engineering. Similarly there are many female biologists. Anyway. Things are changing with the big diversity push. It used to be that a woman in CS was very smart, now it is more likely she is just there because of muh patriarchy.
I made another post on this page about working with women. The highly educated and intelligent ones are amazing, they do things by the book, and do things cleanly, they document things, and they are consistent. These women are not the majority though. There is a huge influx of women that have overdeveloped egos and underdeveloped skills.
