Hacks over hacks over hacks.
I presume with HTML 5, things won't get better at all. Even now, three main browsers understand HTML 5... but not everything of it, and in different ways.

HTML coding for a bit

but it wasn't truly my area of interest. I also took a very basic coding class in high school with something called scheme.. And I don't think I have ever been more confused in my entire life.. They wanted us to write a program to convert dates into roman numerals.. and they might as well have asked me to read latin.
Technically speaking, HTML is not a programming language (HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language).The major difference between a language like HTML and a programming language like C,C++, Java, Python, Ruby, ... is that HTML cannot take any decisions. With HTML there is no "logic", you only assign properties to text or images by putting tags around them saying "i want this to be bold", "i want this to be red", and so on. Also, you are limited to what the standard has been defined to. With a programming language you can do pretty much anything.

OK, well then I challenge anyone to write some code that converts dates into roman numerals.

Definitely not my best code and...it has no comments because I just wanted to get it working. It won't work past year 3999 because at that point the letters have bars over them and I had NO IDEA how to get that to fit in.

Lol nice

Also, Neo0, you may have missed a tag there

I spend time playing Quake on Quakelive and OpenTTD.
I've just recently downloaded the OpenTTD code and had a look. I've never programmed C++ ever, so it's quite interesting to look at

I managed to compile it even!

Show off!

This is about my level of skill

if error then
Onerror:
msgbox("There has been an error!",OK)
goto Onerror
end if

To me programming things are challenging and I like challenges

It takes a special mindset I reckon. I can do simple things for short periods. But I lose my focus way too easy to do any serious programming. I leave that to the experts

BTW for those that didn't 'get it' on an error my bit of pseudo programming would have put you in a meaningless loop with the message box

Shooting is also another hobby of mine. But then again, im American and this is basically a given.

I'm more of a knifes guy.

Have been planned to buy some throwing knives, but i need permit first from police.

I think practicing throwing accuracy from any position itself is gonna be a lot of fun,
+ to know u have such awesome skill (gonna be + also on CV).
And the knifes look just marvellous

Playing guitar, reading books about psychology, cooking and philosophizing when drunk. Oh, and poker if friends gather together.
