I'm amazed at how many new programmers enter the workforce without a basic understanding of the stack and the heap.

- IsTom 13y agoI've met an 'architect' who didn't know either. Apparently Java world is governed by a different set of rules.
- greatdox 13y agoMost of them are recent high school and college dropouts. What did you expect them to know? They learned programming by reading blogs and pirated PDF files on BitTorrent. Of course they don't got a level of understanding most hackers here have. You want a good programmer you need 15+ years of experience plus a good understanding of computer science, recent high school and college dropouts don't have that. You hire a cheaper labor source, you won't get that level of quality a more expensive labor source will give you and you get what you pay for!
- banachtarski 13y agoWell, to be fair, I don't have 15 years of experience (professional experience anyways). But I do believe the fundamentals are important and they seem to be glossed over.
