[Share]Why did you become a developer?

I don't believe ADD is nearly as proliferous as psychologists would like us to believe. It's just their way of selling pills and gouging unsuspected people.

Agreed!!!!!!!!!!

I know a very nice family who lives about 1/4 down the road from me, kids are 4,6,8,11. Each kid is (like most kids) loud and full of energy.

When the kids were younger the parent separated (she is remarried) and then divorced mutually, they both love their kids and (again) were very nice, The mother thought it best if kids began to see a psychiatrist to help them "cope with the divorce" and not all 4 kids are diagnosed ADHD and take medicine to calm them down....

What a shame.........


@ Topic, Glad to see everyone is sharing.

I asked for programming books for my 11th birthday.

I needed a mass file renamer / sorter... none of the ones on the internet suited my needs, so I decided to go out and learn Visual Basic .NET.

This was just a little more than a year ago, November 2009.

I can't believe I've come so far :/

Well I came to get an interest in programming when I was like 10. My mother was a pyscho women an never let me or my brothers out of the house so I always used to go an get books an read an then just start messing with her computer to annoy her > lol Though it progressed when I was about 12 I started reading up on HTML an some other basic coding languages an just kept working with them for a few years. I always told myself I am going to become a big time programmer an I wouldn't let anything stop me from that. Currently I am running 3 Different private servers an learning a volley of new languages, some I already got the hang of some are still a bit complicated. I've got what most people would call a passion for development.

The first time what started this life about vb was...When i think:
How they do websites??
Then i open a about:blank page xD and tryied to put images
But i cant xD , So i started to search about it...
Then i found blog,spot, And my site was good , "HaCkEr - MaNiA! v1.2" .
I won a top 10 one time...
But after a while, i started with dreamweaver , just html...
But "not happy", I searched about login system xD, And learned how to do one in php...

Then i made so many websites...But i started to think: How they do this programs? Like notepad or that shiit? o.O

Then i started to create .bat files and virus xDDD
But i was not happy, So i started with some others scripts (Java, vbscript..)

Then i found crossfire, after that mpgh..
Then after a while i found this section...
But never be interested..Bcuz i was thinking i never will can do one simple programm..

But i tryied... /sad ...I downloaded V.S 2010 , Then opened it.

My first work was:

One label = "Installing.."
One progressbar (Dont even move xD)
Then i made a label with "Installing C:\BLABLABLA"

I debug it, And think it will start installing ..
But i didn know i need to put the code xDD

Then i uninstall the V.S xD /sad

After a while i searched "V.B Books or C++"...
Then i downloaded it again, and now i know how to do many things..
So how didn know the "BASE" of programming..I buy a book..Now im studying it..

My future will be a developper =) =)
(I really want that ) - Now im happy

Thanks for reading

Sorry for my english..
