>Too often I feel like programmers are like fat 50-year-olds talking smack on the locker room about how doomed the other team is because they know the importance of MD5-hashing passwords in the database, and they have no idea they're going out on to the field against an NFL team. why did you go out of your way to insult fat 50 year olds? any NFL team would absolutely crush any allstar team of programmers in their 20s, even if they were selected for regularly doing triathlons and a lot of lifting. Any NFL team would beat the NCAA Division 1 champion football team. (for non-USA, that's a university team, the same teams that supply most of the players to the NFL, but only a fraction of even a championship team actually make it) I wouldn't bet against a fat 50 year old retired NFL players team against any "we know MD5 squad"
