Oh for f***'s sake, get over it already.

Well, I know several "old" programmers, guys in theirs '50s/'60s that
are programming like they are young people :-) but yes, senior
developers tend to code less.

I completely agree.

And exactly why should we care? What gives you the
right to demand a certain etiquette? It's pretty clear
that modern social norms include profanity, whether you
like it or not. It's people like you attempting to impose
their views on others that cause _all_ the problems in the
world. Religion is the root of all evil.

As with most generalizations, you're projecting your experiences
upon others.

Again, projecting.

There are a number of constraints that make up the decision as to which
set of languages to use. Very few of them have anything to do with the
perceived "goodness" of the language.

I've found people generally use profanity when they can't express
themselves intelligently.

Anyone following c.l.c has found that your ideas about how to behave are
not worth considering. And certainly your "discussion" there with Chad
could not be viewed as "expressing yourself intelligently".
 
/Excessive/ swearing is seldom necessary, except as pain relief (where
it can help significantly). But the odd "colourful" phrase as emphasis
is fine in informal contexts, and their occasional use in Usenet posts
is a lot less of an irritation than Brian's obsession about them.

Sorry, David, I really don't care what you think. If you like what I
say, then you know where the killfile is.

Yes, people generally use profanity when they can't express themselves
intelligently. Then they try to justify the use.

I don't expect everyone to care, but those who are
seeking to follow G-d will be glad to find a safe
place to learn about C++ programming.

I'm here raising my voice/nagging. People are free
to disagree with me.

According to the Bible, the love of money is the
root of all kinds of evil.

I abso-fucking-lutely agree with you Jerry! Fucking hell, when people
