Sicilians are great programmers. The best in the world. I'm sicilian. My old man was the world heavy weight champion of sicilian programmers. And from growing up with him, I learned the errors.

Now there are seventeen different things a guy can do to give himself away when he programs. A guy has seventeen errors. A woman's got twenty but a guys got seventeen. And if you know em, like you know your own face, they beat a compiler all to hell. What we've got here is a little game of show and tell. You don't wanna show me nothing but you're telling me everything. Now I know you know what this function does, so tell me before I do some damage you wont be able to unit test your way out of.


I'm generally an April-Fools-in-tech hater, but man, that guy does a great Christopher Walken. I most liked Javascript and MongoDB. Fantastic writing.


Thats not funny, man! I was really lookin' forward to it!


never thought I'd see a rails cast by walken. Really funny stuff guys.. Loved the mongodb one.


I was a little disappointed to see this today, so it got my hopes up of it being real. But the JavaScript frameworks one more than made up for it.

"That's why I don't buy cream, I just microwave cheese"


try mongodb. its like a polo shirt for your ideas


Try it on. Or don't.



"A Ruby on a Rail" - funny stuff.
