What is programming not related to? Seriously a huge portion of posts here are just about programming analogies.

News flash, nearly everything is related to everything, and that’s interesting!

    It's quite something to denounce the arrogance and pompousness of others while proclaiming that they "haven't seen the light" and declaring they've taken the easy path in life. > No other profession does this kind of pompous comparisons.

      Don’t bother, this commenter has just been following me across threads today. I think I said something they didn’t like somewhere else.

        You did piss me off with your above comment. It did trigger me. But my response is still valid. I just looked at your profile and responded to a couple threads. That's all. I'm not trolling you, those comments are legit and they aren't an attempt to be rude like you were. Feel free to ignore them, I don't really care. But maybe I suggest you be less rude with your asinine comments next time.

        See this garbage comment is the rudest comment of all. Insulting beyond anything I've ever seen. You are literally backstabbing me, spreading lies and telling people to ignore me? Please stop.

      >It's quite something to denounce the arrogance and pompousness of others while proclaiming that they "haven't seen the light" and declaring they've taken the easy path in life. I said that because the parents comment was just plain rude. It really pissed me off. It's like "News Flash: Something obvious you should know". So my response was basically, "No bro, you're wrong." with a bit of rudeness injected in. Still what I'm referring to is legit. The sheer amount of programming analogies on HN is through the roof. I see one every other day. Sure other careers like to do comparisons but the amount is nowhere near the volume of programming analogy blog posts. There's definitely a sort of intellectual arrogance programmers have and you can feel it on HN. A lot of articles related to IQ and intelligence always get voted up and the comments become littered with self affirmations. No doubt in my mind this blog post and other programming analogy blog posts is related to this.
