An argument of software engineers.

I worked at a place where my boss called us the weenies and a group of us was known as a gaggle - a gaggle of weenies. It was amusing.
We also had three classifications of engineers - volts, bolts, and bytes : EE, ME, and SE.
"They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul! Damn you! Let the rabbits wear glasses! Save our brothers! Can I get an amen?"

Since we don't have consent on naming and a group of software engineers could never agree on a common name, how about a Nota? A group of None Of The Above.

I also thought last night about :
A Closure

A Religion.
Spaces or tabs? Linux or Windows? ...

A Schism of programmers?

It really depends upon their particular breed (e.g., a flock of geese but a murder of crows).
One that fits well is "An Infestation of Agile Developers".

APL programmers: a confusion
C or C++ programmers: a corruption
C# or Java programmers: a delegation
FORTRAN programmers: a computation
COBOL programmers: a company
BASIC programmers: an asylum
LISP programmers: a list (of course)
Pascal programmers: a school

The responses are very funny unfortunately someone might take this seriously so we need to let identity stay in the political area of our society and not let it enter our profession.
Such a sad state but it is what it is for now
BTW I would prefer a Dorkal

Hmmm... what about a Bitset?

A collection of good programmers could be a cluster.
A collection of bad programmers would be a clusterf**k.

How about a Byte? Each one in a group is a Bit. If there are more than 8 in the group, it's a Word of Software Engineers, more than 16 is a DoubleWord (or DWord), more than 32 is a QuadWord (or QWord), etc.

Sure, except that you can inherit multiple interfaces and you still can't instantiate one without an implementation.
Architecturally, they still have highly different uses.

Quote: Sure, except that you can inherit multiple interfaces and you still can't instantiate one without an implementation.
Depending on how it is defined, it is possible to inherit an abstract class. Two cases in point are List<T> and Dictionary<object,object> . After all, generics are, for all practical purposes, abstract classes.

About that, I agree, so why muddy the waters with this new construct that is half interface and half virtual method?
