STRIKE MATCH
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

YOU HIT THE MATCH WITH YOUR DAGGER.
NOTHING HAPPENS.
DESPERATELY, YOU HIT IT AGAIN, AND AGAIN.
A SPARK FLIES. IT HITS THE OIL SOAKED DWARF!
THE DWARF CATCHES FIRE AND RUSHES SCREAMING WITH TERROR AND AGONY TOWARDS YOU!
YOU SIDE STEP LEFT AND HE MISSES.
UNFORTUNATELY YOU FELL IN A PIT AND DIED.
GAME OVER
(INSERT COIN)
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Text adventures were my first more or less working programs. On a TRS-80.

TRS-80 !
I remember when that was totally modern. I still remember my first program, longer than one line, on that thing.
10 PRINT "HELLO ADAM!"<br />
20 GOTO 10
Boy did I feel powerful!
Life is too shor

I had a little trouble with my parents and spent the day in a shopping mall. In a Radio Shack there was a brand new TRS-80, switched on and the manual was lying besides it. Later a neighbor who was looking for me dragged me home and I was totally uninterested in whatever the whole thing was about. I told my poor parents that I needed a computer.

For example, today I just received a link to the following "Featured Article"...
GDI+ Deep Color Workaround[^]
All very well and a decent article, but written 3 years ago and relating to a technology that is now deprecated (GDI+).
"If you don't fail at least 90 percent of the time, you're not aiming high enough."
Alan Kay.

The featured articles is just a random pick of an article.

And now it's a reference that is not set to an instance of an object, at least if I believe the error message that comes when I follow the link.
And why does this error message always remind me of 'Keine Nummer unter diesem Anschluß'?
