kaimason1 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 although i know this is random, isn't that exactly what this board is for? anyway, anyone want to prove just how nerdy they can be? for example, i can give you guys a list of monty python quotes and i can tell you just about anything that has to do with star wars or star trek tng, all you need to do is prompt me.

If you did, it wouldn't be that nerdy, would it? (And just to be clear: yes, this makes sense, and you can get money for that - but most of the time I do it for free) Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/144258-nerdiness-forum/#findComment-757055 Share on other sites More sharing options...

corbin Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Hrmmmm Apparently "CC-Link is a high speed, high performance industrial network technology that enables devices from numerous manufacturers to communicate resulting in a fast, deterministic control system." So, it basically is involved in your field of work. I don't particularly consider that nerdy.

KevinM1 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Would I be a nerd if I said I still remember that Sideswipe and Sunstreaker were brothers? Or that Skywarp's power was teleportation?

aximbigfan Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I made my own database server............ Out of PHP in CLI. I coded a system to change my desktop wallpaper with one in a MySQL databse, in such a way that all wallpapers are selected an equal number of times. I have 4 servers in my room. 3 embedded ARM9/MIPS and one X86. I rated myself a 10.

.josh Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 You've got stuff all over the place in the wrong order. Even the sub-descriptions for each number don't match up properly. You obviously did no research or followed any kind of accepted standard when throwing together that list. We need to get a council together to sit down and draw up a proposal for a list that is both scalable and open-ended, to accommodate future additions, as well as retain backwards compatibility.

corbin Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I must agree with CV's post (although I think a lot of it he said trying to be jokingly nerdy ;p).

Saying you're a CC-Link engineer is just as bad a pickup line as saying you're collecting blue soda cans.... so that's nerdy! And besides... CC-Link is extremely popular in Japan and Asia in general, but rarely found in Europe... so that makes me equally nerdy with all those furry cosplay nerds. ... Yeah... You're right...

tomfmason Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Programming skill and nerdiness do not positively correlate 100% of the time. I completely agree. I like to think of my self as a good coder(more like a jack of all trades when it comes to web/network development) but I don't really consider my self a nerd. I know I defiantly don't look like a nerd with all of my tattoos and hair. Most people are really surprised, after first meeting me, that I even know what a computer is.

I couldn't care less about Voltron or Robotech though.. but yeah, in my days, Tranformers was the shiznitz! (that along with the mighty 8-bit Nintendo Entertainment System and Sega's Master System) My first Transformer was Wheeljack (followed by Optimus Prime). And no matter how hard I looked, I could never get Star Scream (Damn you , Hasbro! Damn you to hell!) Man, those were the days however! And Soundwave's voice was is still the coolest! I am so stoked for the sequel 'Revenge of the Fallen' this summer.
