I would have preferred you said something like "hey nice try, but the overhead of compiling a c file every time you query will quickly make the database unusable" or "this design limits the database to very small data sets&qu

Weird, most programmers I know consider compilers to be at least somewhat advanced. To answer your question, two years ago I knew nothing about programming, I was poor, living in China, with no marketable skills. I had to teach myself every

Don't worry about that, I work at Syapse too and I have an MA in Chinese lit from UMASS. You could be totally self taught like me and as long as you have skills and a good attitude you will be considered. Everyone there is super nice a
