If a programmer is convicted of murder and sentenced to death, would the executioner use SQL Injection?

int

That sounds backwards to me - the biggest one being he smallest one. Sort of inverted logic.

I have twin sons - my choice was Noel and Leon but this was not allowed. Funnily one of them is, in fact, called Benjamin
|
|
|
|
|
How does the other one feel about that?
|

|
|
I've never asked, he's never offered an opinion
|

|

Maybe you haven't even told him that his brother is named "My best son" or "The son at my right hand"
|

Seems like they would be declared as an array of type Benjamin, named Ben(0) and Ben(1).

Thanks. That's newfangled. Today I am writing in Fortran and VBA. Someone's gotta do it.

One starts with a "C", the second with a "D", the third with a "P".
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

When I started out it was the systems analysts who did the design and logic. All the programmer needed to do was to convert the English instructions into lines of code. So it was a fairly basic function and any idiot (me) could do it. Since then the job has developed in line with ever more sophisticated hardware and software. So now, the 'programmer' has to understand much more and use his/her skills to develop products rather than be a 'code monkey'.

Exactly.

You are not implying that there's anything wrong with being a 'code monkey'. .
I am implying that I like being a 'code monkey'. .

Of course not. Be true to yourself, do what you enjoy and enjoy what you do.

Every team needs some code monkeys and I've never seen a successful large project (in this century) that did not have a good balance of analysts, developers, and code monkeys; not to mention some kicka$$ QA people.

Being ancient enough to remember the System Analyst days, I'd modify that a little:
The profession started as Programmers - that meant we understood the mystic language of computers (COBOL, Algol, Fortran etc) and could translate detailed pseudo code into something that actually worked. In the modern parlance this is also referred to as Coders.
Software Engineers - an evolutionary step where the programmers were actually trusted with writing their own pseudo code and doing some design. Of course letting the business people actually meet the coal face workers was still frowned upon.
Developers - The current evolutionary step where the code jockeys actually can influence how the business should be using the software, rather than being told what to write.
An opinion is an opinion, it's my right to be wrong.
