Programming is 5% writing code full of bugs , 30% googling , 20% crying,20% checking your downvoted questions on stackoverflow, 25 % thinking of switching career

Downvoted answers on SO often mean you should improve your Google-Fu.

And there's another 5% for mistagging rants because the "devrant" tag is for stuff related to devRant itself. There is no "developer rant" because there are only developers supposed to be here.

Nah

If you think SO is bad, .comp.lang.c would have made you suicidal. The programming world is playskool nowdays.

@SortOfTested Ah yeah, the Usenet, that brings back memories. What a pity that the regulars killed it.

Should I be happy to be not professional enough to have a need to use stackoverflow?

You don't even have a 1% to fix/debug the said bugs?

Speak for yourself.

I mostly agree, but 25% changing career? Fuck that. I got here after 8 years of support/projects, you guys have no idea how good your vocation is ;-)
