Bitches don't know about my original programmer.

>>52974521
One of the most famous programmers for his game engines. You never hear about the guys he worked with at SGI or other tech shops that supplied him with some of the cool code he used.

>>52974936
Proof you don't need to be a crack coder to be a good businessman. Doubt he has written a line in years.

I think that's literally what they teach you in introductory webdev classes.

The original Facebook did nothing interesting or innovative in terms of programming, its success was entirely dependent on other factors than the actual programming.

Yeah now that there's like 100,000 software guys hired there they probably do some interesting (albeit overengineered) stuff, but I seriously doubt Mark does any programming for production any more.

Does he shit on streets?

>>52975532
I read an article a few years ago that he couldn't even solve a basic programming problem while some entry level programmers were like "really dude?"
>>
>>52975553
Probably not, only the poor and illiterate shit in the streets
>>
>>52975564
Who gives a shit if you got billions of dollars? If I had that much money, I wouldn't care if If I could or couldn't write code, because money > skills.

As far as I know, Donald Knuth isn't kill yet.

>>52975629
Because it's a valid excuse? Of course he doesn't care, because he's rich, nor would anyone if they had the same amount of money.
>>
>>52975665
It isn't

Look at all those Rick fucks who Exeter legit races then are way out of their league and slow down everyone else who can race
