Databases! Pffft! Where's the HPC?

[Alvin P. Picker]

It seems that the only "programmers," and I use the term very
loosely, on this NG are database code monkeys.

Big fucking deal.

Where are the REAL PROGRAMMERS? Where are the HPC programmers?

HPC = High-Performance Computing and is the ONLY area of REAL
COMPUTING. Everything else is fashionable bullshit.

GNU/Linux, in the right hands (like mine), excels at HPC.

Get these database dilettantes outa here.

Only HPC matters, and if you can't master HPC you are a fucking
computing NOBODY.

Hail GNU/Linux!

Fuck Microcrap/Apphole!

Alvin P. Picker

Don't dare dicker
With the Alvin P Picker
'Cause he'll put you down quicker
Than a fat city slicker
Or a fag boot licker
With a jail house sticker

No such thing.

Not here on this Linux stinkpit, that's for sure.

What are you babbling about today, Pinocchio?


"GNU/Linux is an OS that is intended to be PROGRAMMED by the user for
the user. That is what REAL COMPUTING is all about."

"... real computing no longer exists. No one, aside from
a few rare exceptions, does any real programming anymore."

> GNU/Linux, in the right hands (like mine), excels at HPC.

You sit there with your one low-end Xeon and have delusions of grandeur.
Why?


Now that you mention "Excel": If you find the right "bitch" she might be
able to write some Excel VBA for you.

What I need is a massive set of extremely granular US crime data going
back 50 years, magically containing every criminal act that has occurred
(not just those that were caught), the name/age/sex/race of the
offenders and victims, location, income, marital status, motive, etc.

I could have a field day with that kind of information.

My mystical, magical, majestical CrimeBase GUIs would make your Guhnoo
pinhead explode.

wtf?

$ emerge -crapware every day doesn't make you a master of anything.

Lots of billable hours at your Windows job today, eh?





It wouldn't be a DFS post without some reminders of your constant
schoolgirl lies and dbl-talking, proving you're a two-faced slob.

about how it is presented (I certainly don't)."

Other side of your piehole:

"There is nothing like the experience of seeing a terminal full of
multi-colored output."

left side: "A COMPETENT GNU/Linux user will NEVER have problems.

right side: "I have serious problems with GNU/Linux from time to time
and it's always a bit of a struggle trying to get things back on track."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

left side: "All problems with GNU/Linux arise with the candy-ass dummies
that seek a freebie that will hold their hands like Microshit/Apphole."

right side: "With Gentoo portage I just drop the patch into
/etc/portage/patch and it is automatically applied. No muss. No fuss."

shame shame Feeb.

Daddy should've smacked you around and told you to be a forthright
person, rather than a lying, preening pissant who complains he doesn't
have the time to do programming jobs when the truth is he doesn't have
the programming skills to do them:

But I am a FOSS person. I can do anything and everything and I can
do it all extremely well.

That was a low point for you (among your MANY low points). What excuses
did you give ImageMagick?
