Rands In Repose: The Nerd Handbook

It’s unlikely that this project is a nerd’s day job because his opinion regarding his job is, “Been there, done that”. We’ll explore the consequences of this seemingly short attention span in a bit, but for now this project is the other big thing your nerd is building and I’ve no idea what is, but you should.

I was just sitting here thinking about what today's post would be about.
Work? Fairly dull. I was in meetings when I wasn't being hassled for something or another.
Life? Have none..
TV? Dean Winchester is hot. Supernatural is awesome, but stole the script from Buffy. (Really fairy tales again?1?!)

Then Zenophran sent me the above link.

If that article doesn't decribe every IT or engineering -type guy I've ever met, then I don't know what does.

Here is my favourite line from the whole thing

"Understand your nerd’s relation to the computer. It’s clichéd, but a nerd is defined by his computer, and you need to understand why."

Perfect? See?
