>Sitting on exercise balls
Just a fad or is it beneficial?
I know some of you are sitting on one right now
Fad, and a bad one at that. Also look at that guy's hunch.

I bought both a while ago, but I just got back from the US yesterday.

New desk, coffee table, new speakers, and an amp/preamp combo.

Why is /g/ against OOP? I haven't worked on huge projects and have no idea how to organize them but the idea of combining functions and data in logical units seems like a good idea. Why is making all functions global a better idea? Proper abstraction is always better and more powerful in anything.
/g/ isn't a person.
The backlash against OOP is because it's inappropriately applied to problems.
OOP isn't bad on principle, and can be useful or even beautiful, but overuse by idiots leads to the tremendous bloat we have today.
Trendoids latch on to the criticism and declare OOP universally bad, just like every programming paradigm that's behind the curve of hip/rockstar tech.

I absolutely love OOP. I also love functional programming, though I admit I'm mediocre at it at best, and my current job (at a medium sized reverse engineering/porting/development project) doesn't leave me that much room to work on my functional skills yet. That project is using OOP with quite a few really nice patterns and principles. It's great, and life is pretty good right now.
I find that most people who are really against any given thing here are most likely quite inexperienced. I remember being very strongly for some things yet strongly against others when I was first starting out, though there are things I'd still rather not touch again, like PHP and JS. I got my very first few grey hairs while working with PHP, and JS (and Java for that matter) are the only languages that have succeeded to make me angry.
Recently, I heard someone talk about "friction" in programming, while he was laying out some ideas for a language he'd like to make, and it really got me thinking. The language, principles, methods and whatever else should be chosen by how much they help you achieve the task at hand. If I need to make a website, the language of choice is not going to be assembly, while both Python and C# look like valid options (Python is fast, fast, fast to write, but may not run as fast, while C# is fast and fairly secure, but takes ages to write and pretty much ties you to microsoft, for example). If I need to make a game, then it's possible, but not likely that a GC'd language is going to quite cut it. It all depends on the scope and aims of any given project.

> making all functions global
OOP is not the only way to organize functions.
If you want to hear some anti OOP stuff, here's a basic reading list.

get this book http://it-ebooks.info/book/2628/
get the environment where you write and run your code in from http://download.racket-lang.org/ .
If you don't know what some function does or you're looking for a function that does something check http://docs.racket-lang.org/
Practice a lot.

How to design programs, 2nd edition

Since we are talking books here.
Where I can get a decent epub version of sicp. I got one from bookzz but I cant upload it to play books.
Why aren't you programming in C right now ?
Are you afraid of pointer arithmetic ?
Do you hate minimal execution time ?
Do you hate crafting every bit of your program ?
Do you hate the most efficient procedural language ever made ?
Do you hate one of the greatest monument to the glory of the human mind ?
Your average CS student does not know what a pointer or what a bit is, especially if they need to use for programming.
> inb4 cannot find C.jar
Because I'm sitting in a Java class at the uni.
Because I'm afraid of hackers

I was looking at the t420's on amazon which are pretty decently priced but as I understand it the t420's also came with core i7's and that sounds really appealing to me.

Any ideas what I can use my old netbook for? Right now it has XP. I thought about installing Mac OS X or Android x86 on it, but apparently both are still too broken to be usable. Don't care about linux.

>512mb ram
>gma950 gpu
