My Grammer Is Getting Rusty Because Of Programming by cdeveloper(m): 12:22am On Dec 11, 2009
I have realized that my English both spoken and written is getting rusty because i have been stuffing my brain with meaningless syntax and semantics in the name of programming and each time i pick up a dictionary to update my grammer i end up looking at the structure of the words in the dictionary and how the words itself are grouped in to category A-Z and how each category is grouped in to pages and on and on it goes with out learning a single new word. Does my fellow developer find themselves in this situation.
I n the good old days i wrote diaries ,poems every day about event around me and now when ever i pick up my diaries to read i get stunned by the fact that i have forgotten some of the words i used in my diary.

What's not fine is cross language coding. not fun for me undecided

For me, it's been my writing. I now have to write out one letter at a time as if I start writing in cursive, you might mistake me for a 2-year-old tongue

This is no joke man, it is kind of like a brain block you are trying to write good grammar and then you keep wondering if your are writing the correct English or not. I have not had Bill's Gates speech maybe i would have to start hunting for it to see if this kind of stuff happens to him or not. I have had about code writer who write incoherent comments in there code that even the comments themselves needs debugging. I think i saw that post on Slashdot.
I am thinking of taking a leave from active coding and away from computer and internet as a whole perhaps that will help me a little cos the more i stay around this gadget called computer the more i am overloading this brain of mine and the last thing i want to do is to start forgetting names of people and that will be a deadly blow.
Truth is i can no longer do without this gadget cos the last time i tried it was during my service year i spent a whole year in Ogoja town ,Cross River state without active access to computer. what was the impact on me, it was like the end of time. I could not stand it so i did the most stupid thing i have ever done.
Went into the only cafe in the town,loaded the wikipedia page ,viewed the source code , got the link to the JS file, loaded it on the browser,( about 37 pages on wordpad) and printed the thing. I got home and started pouring through those codes and i was happy ever after. My room then was littered with printout as though i worked in a printing press, even though i felt like i was running mad then i think i still appreciated what i did then.

This one na small, it will get worse tongue

I say this cuz i'm still a rookie (by some standards i'm working with) in my Programming life, by the time i get to PRO; hehe i can only imagine what i'll look like. grin



Internetpo IMHO a programmer doesn't have a social life. The closest you get to being social is talking with a client.
The learning process is much fun cuz I learn everyday. wink

Re: My Grammer Is Getting Rusty Because Of Programming by Nobody: 4:01pm On Dec 12, 2009
it happened to me sometimes ago especially with my nairaland posts.

I had to go back weeks later to edit some of my mistakes.

@poster, there is only one solution.
go out, try swimming, clubbing, watching movies or if you have much time, go on holiday.
you will be okay by the time you are back.
