This was part of an article entitled “What Do Developers Want?” in the September 27th Issue of InfoWorld…

My question is…which of these applies to you?

For me:
[list=1]
[*]Natalie Portman - I’ve been in love with her since the Professional - And she was born the same time as me, so it’s not sick…
[*].NET - What I was actually trained in…still my favorite.
[*]Cold Pizza - Hell yes, I never heat up pizza…give it to me cold!
[*]Smarter Managers - That was one of the main reasons I left my last job…I knew more then him and he was annoying the hell out of me.
[*]XML Everywhere - I love XML, bring it on…
[*]Elegant Code - Ah…code poet.
[*]Realistic Schedules - Who wouldn’t…I love getting a project 2 days before it’s due…when your manager (see above) knew about it for 2 months.

Here’s the image (I added the text on top to reflect the name of the article):

It’s probably easiest to comment on the things I don’t agree with:

- Natalie Portman: She’s always been kind of ‘meh’ for me.
- Java: I prefer it’s mafioso brother C#, but either is better than C++ or *shudder* VB.
- Cold Pizza: I prefer it right out of the oven. Pizza’s an admirably edible substance at any temperature (above freezing) but fresh is where it’s at. I’m a pizza snob, what can I say?
- Elegant Code: I long ago learned that was impossible as long as marketing ruled the Earth. :cry:
- Half Life 2: I was excited about this… last year.

Lol, don’t knock my girl…she’s the one. I agree with your Java…the code thing…the title said what developers want, not whats possible . HL2…well, I think they mean developers don’t have much free time, we get around to the games after they dropped out of the public eye…
