I've been a developer for nearly 30 years in one form or another. I learnt Pascal at University and my first job was programming in Fortran 66. I've since moved to C# & .NET via Ada, C and C++.
Over the years I've used most operating systems (apart from MacOS), starting with PR1MOS and then moving onto various flavours of Unix. I'm now exclusively on Windows, but thinking of getting into iPhone/iPod touch/iPad development (if only I could afford a MacBook Pro!).
One of these days I'm going to get round to these books on my Amazon Wish List

SymbolHound: Search Stack Overflow for special characters Though the site does say it searches multiple sites - "SymbolHound searches a growing index of programming websites", maybe there aren't that many posts with the copyright symbol in them. |

SE Modifications — Username autocomplete in comments, inline revision source, and utility links @TimStone - do I have to do anything to get the latest version? It's still showing the incorrect link for both the comments and the history. |
