Well, it's not like it's not true...

Of course, as one of the profs here put it, 'being able to know when you have no choice but to do every possible combination is an important career skill in this field'.

His claim was that it could be very important to be able to explain to a TLA type why neither you nor anyone else was going to be able to do what he wanted done.

Stupid "never took a CS course" question - (drewk) - (7) - Dec. 14, 2005, 05:06:08 PM EST

Well, it's not like it's not true... - (jake123) - Dec. 14, 2005, 07:16:34 PM EST

Okay, about what I thought - (drewk) - (1) - Dec. 14, 2005, 09:45:56 PM EST

You overstate the case significantly - (ben_tilly) - (1) - Dec. 14, 2005, 10:00:28 PM EST

Yeah, that's true - (jake123) - Dec. 15, 2005, 12:02:27 AM EST

Disciplined programming, eh? - (pwhysall) - (2) - Dec. 14, 2005, 05:16:25 PM EST

Sounds like you may never have heard of it? -NT - (jb4) - (1) - Dec. 14, 2005, 06:03:15 PM EST
