Hello,
long time no see,
you know it's midyear vacation.
PS: "it's called midyear vacation, But it wasn't my midyear vacation as i had many many many things to do and I'm going to talk about that on a later post isAllah"
so, lets start this topic :
A week ago, i was at my coach's home, we were talking about TopCoder forum topic called : "you know you are a TopCoder when .."
He actually was talking about a situation happens to us all (C++,JAVA programmers):
when we are chatting or writing statements any where "we terminate our statements with semicolon instead of dot"
The important things is, when i went home this night i open the TopCoder forum and start looking for this topic, then i found it start reading it.
i liked this topic very much it's amazing really, this topic had started from 2003 and still active till now.
I book marked it and every day i check it and read few pages.
here are some quotes i find in this topic and liked them very much:
You Know You are a TopCoder when :
... When you see a sunrise and think "a flood-fill algorithm would have done that quicker";
... When you include your TopCoder rating changes in your weekly progress reports to you manager;
... When you think red > yellow > blue > green > gray, and orange is a special color;
... When you believe that "TopCoder - The Movie" would be a major box office success;
... When you start signing your emails with TopCoder Handle only;
... After paste your info into any web form you look for button "Compile";
... Instead of asking for directions, you just DFS;
... When you go out the balcony and see only red in front of your eyes;
... When part of your "life plan" is to improve your "color";
... When you are constantly removing the final t when typing in;
... When you carry a TopCoder code template in your wallet;
... When your friends call you by your TopCoder handle and not by your name;
... When the first thing your mother asks on a visit is if your rating is okay;
... When you declare variables during your math classes;
... When you believe "all time" started with SRM1;
see you next post,
