Be sure to get some proper training in programming techniques - data structures, object orientation, etc. The best thing you can possibly do to further your skills is to work on someone else's code. When I was learning to program, open source projects didn't exist. You have the benefit of being able to tap into a huge base of other people's source code. Keep at it and don't take any smack from people about your age! |

Taisto - Yeah dude, just bought that keyboard yesterday, using it right now! =D
As for ~pcwiz. Good on yeah man, I started at around 10 rebuilding computers and discovering that I knew a heck of a lot more than people 3 times my age. Never let it get to you; just shows how immature can be when they're jealous ;-) p.s. Been trying to get your attention for a project. Send me a message with your email if that's ok. |

It's sad to see InsanelyMac admins are so cocky.

I like forums where everyone's post is heard, I think that the scale of InsanelyMac is too big for the staff to control, and that it is too in some ways complicated.
Although, the only thing I really see at InsanelyMac is an archive of install fails and kexts. |

I keep looking for a new place to hang out. Been playing with OSx86 for 3yrs now.
InsanelyMac is just huge, but nothing else has really ever taken off nor maintained. For months now I have hated it because it is soooo full of newbs who have made NO attempts to learn how to install and ask the same damn questions again and again. The site is SLOW and the search engine is abysmal. The Mods never make threads sticky that should be, nor force a FAQ and delete improper or repeated questions. I am in high hopes InfiniteMac will be my new hang out Last edited by newbmac; 02-10-2009 at 07:27 PM. |

iPC... 14... no friggin' way. Dude, you are amazing! I'm twice your age and WISH i was as competent as you are. Keep it up. Your next release will be even better. I admit the your distro didn't install as smoothly as some others, but i think it's because you were really letting the user choose the exact kexts to install for the sake of vanilla-bility where others had some basic ones that installed by default. Once I figured that out it was pretty smooth sailing. You're doing great man. Keep it up. Don't listen to those bozos. They're just trying to stifle you cuz they're jealous. I don't remember using anything Hagar ever did. And Hara, you keep it up too. I'm anxiously awaiting the iPC boot-132 you posted about awhile back.
Btw, am i to assume that you got your wallpaper? The one with the Mac Pro and the wings? If so, would you mind telling me where to find it? I'd love to have it as the background on my iPC hack Oh and sorry to drag up an old thread that's probably yesterday's news, but i just saw it and had to give you guys some kudos. I'm definitely gonna spend more time here after reading that. Hara, you said you were going to update on what Sabr told you, but I didn't see a resolution. Kinda' curious as to how that went. ~ Snow Leopard Retail w/Empire EFI ~ MSI X58 Platinum SLI ~ Intel Core i7 920 3.2GHz ~
