What they DON'T want you to know about... Java

So I am "pair programming" with my boss at work today. I'll let the laughter die down.

OK...

...

... Right. And we have a problem which is --> How do we extract text from lines of an XML file?

I know how to do it in Assembly and tell him.
I know how to do it in Perl (it's easiest) and tell him.
I know how to do it in C and tell him.

I was running the keyboard, so I typed in the beginning of a statement and then, in JDeveloper, hit Control and Spacebar.

A list of ALL THE POSSIBLE COMMANDS that I could use to manipulate text came up. AND ... ANNNND they are all logically named.

What do "they" not want you to know? They don't want you to know that Java IDEs weren't put together by apes and goons. I'm not going to say that just anyone can do it -- I suck -- but goddamn does it make it a little easier to get around syntax.

BEWARE! YOU COULD BE KILLED FOR POSSESSING THIS INFO

What the hell's "Java"?

Bugs, Java is a programming language. They *do* want you to know that, so it's OK. You're not in any trouble now or anything.

But this is the first in a series of what they do not want you to know. #1 / ???

I think you should change the title of the thread to "Things "they" do not want you to know." That would open "it" up for all kinds of wicked-fascinating info dumps! Or something.

Like it or not, your children are attracted in their weaker years to the OCCULT.

It would appear that JC has passed Bugs by as well. He's a regular Bill from Syracuse nowadays.
